Shooting against the light is always challenging for me in practising photography. On 22 09 2021 at the Upper Peirce Reservoir, I had another opportunity of shooting against the light. My perception of different layers of trees creating a perfect depth for my image with the touch of morning golden light from the sun. Enhancing the visual impact, the ripples in white gave a gentle touch further. The vantage angle in capturing such an image is essential.
My observation of the multicolours sky reflections oriented me to capture this mage with a strong effect of illusion. Combining the silhouette of the trees in the foreground with the colourful reflections further created an unusual visual impact. The concept of capturing the ripples within a split of a second, enhanced the image to a greater extend. The resulted final image was my perception of the happening at the Upper Peirce Reservoir on 17 Sept 2021.
In landscape photography, I like to arrive at the designation before sun rise. Simply because the golden hour of the day is always the best time in capturing a dramatic image of landscape. At the Upper Peirce Reservoir on 22 09 2021, I fulfilled my ambition of capturing an amazing image of landscape that I like.
