Location
This photo was taken at Guajataca Tunnel, on the north coast of Puerto Rico. The precise location of the photo is difficult to access. Continue down rocks to get to the beach.Time
At the time of the photo were approximately 11:30 amLighting
Reflectors are used to direct sunlight. The rest of the lighting was natural.Equipment
Para esta foto yo use una Sony F828 de 8.5 MP. Dado a que esta cámara tiene su lente integrado no utilicé lente adicional. No utilicé flash ni tripode. La foto fue tomada a mano de un solo disparo.Inspiration
My passionate about nature and the force transmitting makes my mind believes art for other things that are common. The sea is my weakness so I manage to capture that moment where the ocean hits with his strength to the earth is just wonderful. Achieving that perfect moment with one shot is the greatest satisfaction that I have.Editing
The photo was manipulated with Photoshop CS6 which add some lighting effects and to highlight the image contrast.In my camera bag
My package usually contains my Canon 60D, some telescopic lenses and macros. A flash memories, extra batteries, equipment for cleaning lenses, a tripod and a lot of ambition to obtain a masterful picture.Feedback
When asked as achievement shots like this I can only say one thing. The picture goes beyond having a good team or have the best lenses. This is about having the eye of an artist, have patience and wait for the right time. You always have to have your camera with you. The correct time may come in everyday situations and have to be prepared to steal the time. You also have to know your camera and its capabilities and limitations as well know yours. Once you know your limitations you can work to correct them.
