Pity bit too dark (IMO), but for the rest beautiful.

You have given 2020 a positive swing that is really (nice) positive, a contribution to the Year 2020 Collection. As always, the competition will be tough, which, as an added consequence, makes a possible victory taste very sweet. Good luck and probably for the … time: Happy New Year and stay healthy in 2021!

The latest monthly challenge of 2020 and you are part of it, isn't that great. If you haven't won yet this year, "The December 2020 Collection" offers you one last chance. Good luck and a very Happy New Year.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Roque Prieto a beach of Santa María de Guía in the north of Gran Canaria. I love this photo because it brings back to my memory the day it was taken, and with that, I remember being back at the top of the mountains of the island and end up the day with a small break in the action at this place.

Time

It was taken around 20:30 in the afternoon, with the last sunshines of the day.

Lighting

The light conditions were pretty poor because it was not much light by the time, so I decided to take a long exposure shot for this compotition. That long exposure effect has an art purpose too, because it gives to the water the smooth touch it has.

Equipment

For this shot (and for most of my shots) I used a tripod and my camera (pentax k70) equiped with the pentax 18-280 mm lens.

Inspiration

I dont know, it was the moment. I remember I was sitting on the shore staring at the waves coming and leaving, and that movement was the fact which atract me to take the shot.

Editing

I only put up a few points in the exposure levels, because even being a long exposure shot it was a little bit dark.

In my camera bag

I used to take with me my camera, a tripod, a tele-objetive (pentax 18-280 mm) and a 50 mm lens (pentax multi coated 50 mm).

Feedback

First of all, come to the island, nah just joking. But, as advice, I use to stare at simple things trying to frame them in an art shot. Thats the only advice I can give, "the simple things are the answer".
