Behind The Lens

Location

Under the Pier, was taken on Jeckyl Island in Georgia.

Time

I captured this photo of the pier about an hour before sunset.

Lighting

Sweet light..My favorite time to shoot. Early evening, around 7:00 pm, on a warm Summer evening.

Equipment

I shot this scene with a Canon 5D on a tripod with a 28-70mm zoom lens.

Inspiration

We headed down to the beach to capture a sunset, only to remember soon after we arrived that we were on the East coast of Georgia, and the sun sets in the West. We live on the West coast of Florida, so sunsets are a nightly happening in our Florida home, but I forgot we live on the West coast of Florida, so we were not going to see the sun set from on Eastern location. But, with cameras in hand, we were determined to capture some images anyway. This massive pier went from the parking lot all the way to the water and created this tunneling effect that caught my eye. I decided to create anHDR image so I put my camera on a tripod and shot 3 images at varying exposures with my aperture set a f 16 to ensure adequate depth of field.

Editing

After adjusting the white balance in Adobe photo-shop camera raw, I loaded the images into "photomatix", a program for processing HDR images, and I chose a tonemapping preset called "painterly". I then opened the image in CS6 and adjusted levels, quick selected the sky and reduced the noise. I boosted the contrast and added structure to the pillars using the nik plug in "viveza" Finally, I did some minor clean up of littler on the sand with the clone tool.

In my camera bag

My Canon 5D is my camera of choice along with my 28-70 and my 70-200 zoom lens. My tripod is always with me as well as a flash just in case I need them.

Feedback

HDR images are best made when you put your camera on a tripod, so a tripod is best practices for taking HDRs. Shoot multiple images with different exposures as well as different compositions.Try getting the scene from all different angles.....I often do the 360 degree walk. With my camera to my eye, I check out the scene from all the angles. Sometimes what the eye doesn't see as a pleasing composition, when framed up by in your camera, actually might be more pleasing than you thought.
