Behind The Lens

Location

This image was taken in the Krma valley in the Julian Alps in Slovenia.

Time

It was taken about 15 minutes after the sunrise when the sunlight was already hitting the mountains on the right.

Lighting

The light comes to the valley when the Sun is already very high so light is very harsh at that time. So the best time to shoot is actually when the sunlight is not yet present in the valley, but only on the peaks of the mountains.

Equipment

This was shot with Nikon D810 and Nikor 14-24 on a tripod.

Inspiration

I just wanted to photograph my dog between those Erica's plants flowers which are the first flowers in the valley. Spring was very early that year and some flowers are blossoming even one month earlier than usual. Krma valley was already full of Erica's plants, while the trees and grass remain dry and gray.

Editing

I just did some normal post-processing, emphasizing certain colors a bit.

In my camera bag

I normally carry my Nikon D810 and three lenses: Nikkor 14-24, Tamron 70-200mm and Tamron 150-600mm.

Feedback

I don't think there is anything really special, but to be at a great location at the right time. Then it's just about taking the right shot when the dog is doing something special.
