Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in St. Thomas.

Time

I believe this was taken in the early afternoon, as we only had a few hours to spend at this beach.

Lighting

I was so grateful for having a beautiful sunny day for this photo opportunity.

Equipment

I used my Olympus E-M5II camera.

Inspiration

The water here is a magnificent color, and the mountainous backdrop added to the beauty. The blue sky was perfect. I wanted to capture this peaceful moment with some ocean spray breaking upon the craggy rocks to complete this photo.

Editing

I only slightly adjusted the lighting, as this scenery in its natural state needs no other adjustments.

In my camera bag

This Olympus camera is the one I always use for scenic pictures and all vacations. It takes quality pictures and is so easy to use.

Feedback

Sometimes the natural beauty of a particular place just lends itself to taking a beautiful picture. Getting the perfect details is, as in the waves breaking just right takes patience and many shots. Thank goodness for digital photography!
