Location
I took this photo at Peri?nik waterfall in Triglav National Park the only national park in Slovenia. Peri?nik is the most visited and one of the biggest waterfalls in Slovenia. It's 52 meters high. There are actually two waterfalls Upper and Lower on the photo is Lower and bigger waterfal and me standing under so you can get the idea how big it is.Time
I took this photo at half past ten at night. I had to walk and climb up hill in the 15 degrees celsiua below zero to get this photo. I did find the composition and set up my camera and wireless trigger and the i climbed those rocks and ice to my position and made some photos.Lighting
The scene was lit by almost full moon and to lighten iciciles i used head lamp and external Spedlight flashgun to made me more visible.Equipment
I did use Canon 6D and Canon 16-35 F4 L IS USM lens on a Manfrotto tripod. Also i used wireless camera trigger and Canon 470EX II Flashgun.Inspiration
I was photographing this waterfall one year ago, but the i was at location in the middle of the day. There is the photo i took last year https://www.viewbug.com/photo/70885643. I really liked this scene and i wanted to come back at night but it was not cold enough and there was no snow and icecicles until this year and imidiately when temperatures dropped drasticaly i went back at the location and this is the result of me coming back at night with full moon.Editing
I didnt do much just some highlight reduction and shadow boost and added contrast and some dodge and burning to mace scene more dramatic.In my camera bag
I have a big photo bag and itake all the gear with me allways and allways regret it when i have to walk around with this heavy big bag. So in my bag are: -Canon 6D -Canon 7D Mark II -Canon 16-35mm F4 L IS USM -Canon 24-70mm F4 L IS USM -Canon 70-300mm F4-5.6 IS USM -Canon 100-400mm F4-5.6 II L IS USM -Canon 50mm 1.8 II -Tamron 90mm 2.8 1:1 Macro Di -DJI Mavic PRO And many other stuff that i need or not haha...Feedback
Be patient and wait for the right conditions and when right time comes act fast and carefully work on your composition.
