30 Seconds | Wastwater
Carrying my 10kg camera rucksack, with tripod, water, spare layers, food and maps; the people who I am with (in this instance my girlfriend) always comment on how do I do it, or why do I bother. My response is always the same - You have to be in it to win it :)
This photograph proves my point. We hiked to the summit of Scafell Pike, it was hot and steep and although I was constantly greeted with stunning scenery, the light was poor so I didn't bother getting out my camera. It wasn't until the last 15 minutes of the 4hr walk that the elements came together, producing just 30 seconds of stunning light. I had just enough time to set up, frame, focus, shoot. The light went as fast as it came and the effort of labouring up the mountain with my kit was more than worth it. I would also like to add that this hasn't been Photoshopped or played with much... the light was just that good.
