Behind The Lens

Location

Galway, Ireland

Time

Not long after dusk. The days are very long during the summer in Ireland, so it would have been about eleven o'clock in the evening or perhaps even twelve.

Lighting

The beach looks so orange and lit up because of the colour of the street light behind the beach.

Equipment

Nikon D700 - 28mm Nikkor Lens - Manfrotto Tripod

Inspiration

It's a place with personal special meaning and the moment was just right. I fell in love with it when I saw it, one of those magical moments as a photographer.

Editing

Only minor post-processing- it's very close to the way it was shot in camera.

In my camera bag

Two full frame Nikon body's, 28mm 2,8 Nikkor Lens on one of them. 85mm 1.8 Nikkor Lens on the other, 50mm 1.8 Nikkor Lens, Spare Batteries, Nikon Flash. Depends on what I am shooting though, but generally have the above in my bag.

Feedback

Try a few settings and capture different versions- decide later which one you like most and learn from it for future shoots. Although it is good to plan shots, also would recommend just going with what you feel and see at that moment- for if you really look closely, everything is continuously changing.
