Behind The Lens

Location

This is a shot from my homeland. It's the area between an small mountain (or tall hill) called "Höchsten" and the Lake Constance

Time

In the early morning there is often fog during the winter, which disappears during the day

Lighting

At first I was a little unhappy about the clouds, I was hoping for a clear sky and a nice morning light. However, the clouds had the advantage that you could take longer photos, the light remained good for a long time, the sun flashed through the clouds again and again

Equipment

I took this picture with my dji Mavic 2 pro drone

Inspiration

I love foggy moods. You can take great pictures on the ground, especially when you are at the fog line and the sun makes the fog glow in the backlight. But fog is also very worth seeing from above, it covers valleys, the hilltops protrude from a sea of fog...

Editing

In difficult lighting situations (here the back light) I like to take a series of exposures, especially when taking pictures with the drone. I then use the "Aurora" software to create an HDR image from these series

In my camera bag

For all my pictures (except sie aerials) I use my Canon EOS 5D Mk IV camera. For landscape photography I usually use two different lenses: the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM and the Canon EF 16-35mm 1:4L IS USM - these lenses and a set of Haida filters (ND 3.0, 1.8 und 0.9, GND 1.5, Pro II Digital Slim Polfilter zirkular MC) are always in my bag. Sometimes I take pictures of the milky way with the Tamron SP 15-30mm f/2.8 So VC USD and for Wildlife photography I use the Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2. These lenses are very heavy, so I don't always carry them around with me. If I encounter an animal and this was not planned (or for landscape details) I still have a Tamron 70-300mm 1: 4-5.6 SP Di VC USM and for occasional macro shots a Tamron SP 90mm 1: 2.8 Di Macro 1: 1 VC USD. A tripod for landscape photography is mandatory

Feedback

Come to the region near the Lake Constance during fall, winter and spring, especially when thermal inversion occurs. You may be lucky and we have some beautiful ground fog or you may be unhappy and we have high fog for days and weeks, which is very boring
