Location
this photo was taken during my most recent trip to egypt, taken in the saqqara desertTime
I don't remember the exact time but I know it was the end of the day, there was a huge silence and you couldn't see a person in kilometers, it seemed that the whole desert was mine and mine aloneLighting
my objective was to capture the immensity of the desert and all its beauty.Equipment
Sony A99 + Tamron 24-70 + tripodInspiration
the inspiration was simple, I always had the dream of seeing the desert, I could never imagine it would be so big, so magnificent, I spent hours in that place just contemplating the beauty of the desertEditing
I used photoshop to give more drama to the image, more charged colors and more depth, I wanted to convey to the image the feeling I felt at that momentIn my camera bag
I am a simple man, in my bag I always carry my Sony A99 + tamron 24-70 and a tripodFeedback
always try to pass on to the image, to the photo what you are feeling the moment you take the photo.
