Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Tsongmo Lake. It is a glacial lake in the East Sikkim district of the Indian state of Sikkim, some 40KM from the capital Gangtok.

Time

This photo was taken at noon of the day, between 12:30pm to 12:40pm.

Lighting

Being noon there was an excellent natural lighting which helped a lot in the exposure and colour aspects in the photo.

Equipment

I used a Nikon B700 camera with a gorilla tripod.

Inspiration

There were many aspects inspiring me to capture the scene, like the location, snow partially covering the high areas, the lake in the the altitude of 3753m, and many more.

Editing

yeah, I did a post processing for this particular photo as it is a landscape, I increased the contrast in the photo.

In my camera bag

Nikon B700 camera and a tripod.

Feedback

Trying this type of captures requires a lot of preparation. I visited this lake for three times to get this particular shot. So u need to be prepared from the beginning abt the place and the type of scene you need to capture.
