Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken from the beach in Rodney Bay, St Lucia.

Time

Every trip I make to the Caribbean, I try and get a sunset shot from a beach, some turn out better than others.

Lighting

I always wait until the sun is close to the horizon but not touching. I find the colors are more dramatic at that time.

Equipment

The picture was taken with a EOS 80D 1/3200 sec f/5.6 205mm iso 100. I took this handheld.

Inspiration

This beach in St Lucia is the perfect place to take a sunset shot as it can encompass sailboats and sunsets all in one.

Editing

I may have tweaked the sunset color a little to enhance it but not too much.

In my camera bag

the only things I have in my camera bag usually is my 50mm and my 70 - 300 Zoom. Not much else I need other than spare batteries.

Feedback

I love sunsets and think the best time is just before the sun touches down on the ocean. There can be great shots taken when the sun is half way into the ocean but I prefer above the horizon.
