Behind The Lens
Location
The photo was taken from the terrace of my place in Milan.Time
In the morning, right after sunrise. I knew it was a full moon so I woke up very early for the view. Right before it set, I realized I didn't yet take any photos. It was for the best though, as the pink sunlight made everything more magical.Lighting
The initial plan was to take as many photos as possible before dawn so I can have more contrast with the dark sky, but the morning sunlight gave the city scene this fairytale-like vibe which I love.Equipment
My old Nikon D5100. Didn't have time to set up a tripod as the moon was setting and didn't want to miss it.Inspiration
The light. It was just perfect.Editing
Very light post-processing; I wanted it to be as close to what I saw as possible since it will remain one of those special moments in my memory.In my camera bag
I'm doing this because it brings me joy, not professionally, so I don't have a proper 'photographer bag'. A couple of bodies, a few lenses, a tripod. The basics.Feedback
Wake up earlier than you're planning to. Have everything ready the night before. Take a moment to just be present and really enjoy the view, without the camera. Then have fun shooting.
