Location
It was in the hills above Pacifica in California.Time
Late in the afternoon around 5 or so.Lighting
It actually snowed that day up in the redwoods, so the lighting was beautiful and natural. Fog is by far one of my favorite lighting situations to shoot in.Equipment
Just a camera in this case, Nikon D300sInspiration
I love the redwoods and I love the mood of a foggy day. That particular day I was driving back roads looking for great place to photograph and I stumbled upon this road with beautiful redwoods, it was a wonderful day, and I have gone back many times to this location.Editing
Yes, I post processed in photo shop, little bit of light and color never hurts :)In my camera bag
If I am heading out to shoot landscapes it isn't a ton, I will usually have a 18-50mm, 11-16 mm, 50 mm, and a 70-300 mm. I always bring my D300s and usually have my D7000 as a back up.Feedback
Honestly I think my advice would be the same for any image, shoot what inspires you and what you love. If you have a passion for what you are shooting it definitely comes through in the image. This was just one of many images I will not forget from that day, it's lonely, and so was I at that moment...that's the power of photography, it can show what's inside you.
