Behind The Lens
Location
Looking down from the side of a mountain on the border of France and Switzerland.Time
I had flown all night and arrived in Geneva before sunrise. A friend was showing me around the area. This picture was shot right after sunrise in mid January.Lighting
The island looked like it was floating due to the lifting fog and the sun lighting of the scene.Equipment
Nikon D7500 wth Nikkor 70-300 lens using a strategically positioned rock in lieu of a tripod.Inspiration
The scenery was stunning, the alps beautiful and the conditions were perfect to create a beautiful illusion.Editing
Minor cropping and a 1 fstop adjustment.In my camera bag
D7500, Sony Cybershot, varied lenses and a tripod.Feedback
I always look for what will be a cool picture on my wall and something that will keep me looking at it for years to come. I don't sell my pics because it would change my motive in shooting that pic. See it, frame it and compose it.
