Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at Cottesloe Beach in Western Australia

Time

It was just after the sun had set.

Lighting

The sun had just gone down and I was lucky to capture these seagulls flying over the beach with a clear sky.

Equipment

I used an Olympus Tough camera.

Inspiration

This is one of my favorite places to go at sunset, the birds are amazing. When the seagulls started flying around I took a few shots and was very pleased with this one.

Editing

I used PhotoScape to change the hue from blue to this pinkish purple.

In my camera bag

I have with me an Olympus Tough, a Nikon D5200 with an 18-55mm and 55-200mm lenses.

Feedback

Enjoy you favorite places and always be prepared for anything worth shooting. I also take many shots of the same thing knowing that I will get the shot that I want.
