Location
Taken in Caithness next to the Thurso River at Strathmore Lodge, Far North of Scotland.Time
Mid afternoon.Lighting
The cloudy sky gives it a neutral light with no shadows.Equipment
Nikon D7100, 16 - 400mm Tamron zoom lens, 1/80, f11Inspiration
Caithness is known for its vast skys across the flat NE corner of the far north of Scotland. The hills are in the SE of the county, near it's county border with Sutherland. Very peaceful and tranquil part of the country.Editing
Very little post-processing. Just lowered the highlights and added a bit of contrast.In my camera bag
I generally travel light. One camera with the 16 - 400mm lens attached to it, 10mm - 20mm zoom and 40mm macro. Polariser and UV filters.Feedback
Most of the Caithness scenery speaks for itself. You can get away with pretty much anything tecnique wise. It's about the scenery not the skill!
