Behind The Lens

Location

Yosemite valley, it's a picture of Yosemite falls

Time

It was an early start to get dawn, this was taken not long after.

Lighting

All natural, just needed an early start

Equipment

Canon 5d mark iii, with a 16-35 f2.8 l lens, tripod, I had my lee filters with me, I'm not sure if this shot used one though.

Inspiration

I just loved the reflection

Editing

Not much at all, it was beautiful the way it was

In my camera bag

It depends on the situation and how much I want to carry. I love my 600mm f4, and mpe-65mm macro lenses. The 16-35mm goes with me most places, then t just depends.

Feedback

Unless you know an area getting a local guide makes a massive difference. Be prepared to get up early its worth it.
