Deep in the forest, moss grows on all sides of a tree. Moss so thick it grabs the leaves as they fall. This is so deep under the canopy no direct light penetrates, and a yellow-green light glows all around.

Behind The Lens

Location

This was in the Wasatch Mountains, a special place I know that always has great light. This day was overcast, so even better light was filtering through

Time

Probably 10 to 12 AM

Lighting

Just super soft and light- first the canopy was filtering the light, then it was also foggy... so super soft light.

Equipment

This was my D810.... and as wide an angle lens as I have (15mm)., Tripod so I could use a low ISO and get vivid color.

Inspiration

I was struck first by the color. Then by the textures, especially the moss. I wanted to see that texture.

Editing

Very minimal- just basic color/contrast/lum because it was all there in the shot.

In my camera bag

I used my backpack set for this- a few lenses, tripod...

Feedback

Take your time. No rush. Just make something pretty. REMOVE DISTRACTIONS!
