Location
Early morning walk brought me to a quiet spot at Thirlmere, in the Lake District. Following a recent storm, I was blessed with winter sun and not so much as a breeze.Time
I was up and off early, however this was taken around 10am. Prior to that there was too much fog and mist, but patience paid off and nature’s mirror revealed itself.Lighting
The light was a gift, and not what I was expecting. I didn’t have my tripod with me so taken hand held.Equipment
Taken on a Canon 5D mark iv. Canon 50mm 1.2L. That’s it...Inspiration
Who wouldn’t take a photo if this. I had to trample through some soggy undergrowth to get to a good composition spot, and be patient with the wildlife as I didn’t want any ripples from a passing duck.Editing
Put through Lightroom but with very little, basic adjustments.In my camera bag

Get out there. Be patient and try different compositions.
