You wouldn't catch me that far out! There's a chunk right to that person's right that has already broken off, so, really risky! So I can't really say that I like it. Good composition, but...

Behind The Lens

Location

This picture was taken in Trolltunga, Norway. It's a famous hiking spot close to the city of Odda, where I slept the night before in a hostel. It's a 14 km hike each way and normally takes people 5 hours to get there from the beginning of the hike.

Time

It was around 2 and 3 pm. The hike normally takes 5 hours each way, but I made it in 4. I didn't start that early in the morning.

Lighting

Natural light, but it wasn't the greatest because it was cloudy. It would work way better on a sunny day. One day I will go back there, hopefully for a sunrise and a sunset.

Equipment

Just a cellphone: Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro

Inspiration

This was my top place to go in the world for many years, even before I discovered that I was in Norway. Once I had the opportunity to go to Europe in 2017, my first thought was going to this spot, Trolltunga.

Editing

Just a minor light correction

In my camera bag

Now I have a Sony A6000 with the kit lenses and a f/1.8 - 35mm

Feedback

If you like hiking, you are good to go. It's a long hike, but totally worth it. It's awe-inspiring. Explore the cliff beside that rock to find your perfect spot. I found it better to be more on the left to get the end of the lake down there on the right.
