Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken at Pavones Beach in Costa Rica, renowned as one of the best surfing destinations

Time

It was taken in the morning, when surf conditions are optimal for catching smooth and long waves

Lighting

The cloudy day added to the atmosphere of the picture in a very pleasing way

Equipment

I used my Sony A7III camera with the Sony 70-300G lens. I really enjoy this setup because it offers a long focal length, making it great for capturing distant subjects, while still being lightweight enough for walking and hiking.

Inspiration

The waves were quite significant that day, and the entrance was tricky with lots of whitewater, along with numerous carrion hunters at the beach. I thought of capturing a picture of them searching for surfers entering the dangerous ocean

Editing

I made some very basic adjustments, nothing particularly special

In my camera bag

I always make sure to have a selection of 3-4 lenses covering the 18-300mm range with me. However, my affection for the 150-600mm Sigma telephoto lens often makes it difficult to decide whether to leave it behind
