I was in a tree hanging over a cliff to get this one.

Location

This photo was taken on the backroads of Arkansas high above a river.

Time

I got up before daylight to make it before sunrise and got there as the fog was lifting and the sun was peaking into a new day.

Lighting

The sun was just coming out and trying to burn the clouds away.

Equipment

This was taken with an old 35mm Nikon that an old friend, Barney Sellers, helped me find. A great photographer in his own right and my mentor. No tripod cause of being in a tree over the cliff.

Inspiration

To get the perfect shot I climbed a tree hanging over the cliff. It was the perfect angel. I about gave Barney a heart attack when he saw me tho. This was my all time favorite memory as an artist when everything comes together perfectly.

Editing

This is a pretty raw shot. There might have been a touch of enhancement to bring out the perfect coloring but I don’t think so.

In my camera bag

I use to carry a backpack full of equipment but I have realized that the equipment does not make up the shot.

Feedback

Early morning shots done as the world is waking up can be amazing. Use what nature gives us freely.
