"On to top of the hill"

For a while I was really interested about the Moravian Tuscany region. I saw so many photographs form this stunnig location and i promised myself that I will definitely visit this place one day. Easter holiday was the day I packed my gear and traveled to the location. Its not to far from where I live . Journey takes approximately 2h so it's not to far. 95% journey is on motorway.

I planned 3 location which I'd like to pohotogprah, They were only 15-16min apart. I always like to write down everything about specific trip. It helps me stay organised and give be clear vison what I'm after and what I gonna need . Not every trip require same stuff and accessories so preperation is the key. I prefer sleeping in the car rather then spendig money on accommodation it's better adventure and what helps a lot that I can park close to my photo location. On my arrival I didn't hesitate and grabed my gear and walked to my first location . It wasn't to far from where I parked my car. Everywhere I looked left or right I saw the pure nature full of greenery, blooming trees and flying bees. Very soon I came to field which led me to my spot. The weather forcast predicted partly sunny conditions ideal for these type of shoot.

The longest lens I had with me was Canon 70-200mm f/4 which I thought it will be enough for this location but I learned my lesson very fast that this region is all about the reach so Ideal focal lenght starts somewhere around 100-400mm. When you are in field and weather conditions changes every second you don't have time to complain and blame gear. You should use what you have. It's more challenging but more fun as well. The filed was full of other photographers . Everyone tried to capture the same scene but in the end each photos gonna be different . That's the reason why I love landscape photography. One location and thousands possibilities.

My attention through the viewfinder was focus on the specific part of the scenery such as the center of the filed touched by setting sun in far distance . Setting sun helped to enhanced the contrasty part of the scenery for example on the photos bellow you can better see how light helps to create depth and seperation between the rolling hills . In flat light conditions there woulnd't be clear seperation between highlights and shadows area. And it's all about the light in the end . I'm really happy that I could created this "story" collection from my journey and share with people my way how I see the world around. On my next visit I'd like to focus more on abstarct photo like the 4th photo in my collectin. where the main part will play shapes, colours, light and shadows. It's always good to have a new "challange" or task what you can focus on. It brings fresh ideas and new perspectives
