Behind The Lens

Location

Almora, lower Himalayas in Uttarakhand, India.

Time

Morning around 6:00 am in freezing temperature.

Lighting

Sun was bit harsh by the time and clouds started clearing from Lower hills, rays were piercing through clouds and trees, so decided to zoom to capture that.

Equipment

Nikon D750 with Tamron sp 70-200 f2.8 G2.

Inspiration

Always wanted to capture hill base covered with clouds at sunrise.

Editing

Did post processing using photoshop, it was a handheld shot, did Used some dodge and burn method.

In my camera bag

I carry usually Nikon D750 with Tamron 70-200mm f2.8, Tamron 15-30mm f2.8 and Nikkor 85mm 1.8g.

Feedback

Always plan ahead and if you wish to take sunrise plan a day in advance for location and make sure you look around and not get fix to one angle only.
