It was a challenge to take a shot against the sun and keep as many details of the surroundings as possible.Equipment
I used Canon Canon EOS R, Canon 24.0-105.0 mm @ 24.0 mm., Manfrotto tripod.Inspiration
It was a beautiful sunrise the day before, but I didn’t have my camera, so I went the next day to take this shot. I think it was a beautiful sunrise that day as well.Editing
Shot RAW. I adjusted the light/contrast, sharpened.In my camera bag
I use only Canon equipment, Canon EOS R, EOS70D, EOS80D. 4 zoom lenses. 100-400 mm. 24-105 mm. 28-135 mm. 18-55mm. Manfrotto tripod. Manfrotto Backpack 50. B+H ND Filter 8x.Feedback
I used a tripod to get the camera ready before the sun came up, which allowed me to avoid looking directly into the sun. I used a small aperture to get the sun rays and starburst effect.
