Behind The Lens

Location

Well, the sculpture called Riff, PD #18245 created by Dutch artist Bob Gramsma, and it is located in Biddinghuizen, Dronten, the Netherlands, far far away from the coast

Time

I woke up really early morning at 4:00 a.m., to reach this beautiful place at 5:15 a.m., waited for the sunrise at 5:35 a.m., and spent such a nice time here, and what is most importantly had such registered moments through my camera. It was the beginning of the day, the day was rising and incredibly mesmerizing me. Sunrise, every second of this moment was just for me. Incredible feeling.

Lighting

Early morning, nothing particular in the case of the camera and lens, simply daylight, sunrise, and time, simply starting from the blue hour, continuing with golden hour, and ending with the hour :).

Equipment

Nothing special inside. I am not professional. So, I use one set: NIKON D810 + Sigma 24-70 Art version. That's enough.

Inspiration

Well, simply the idea of the author to place such a sculpture far, far away from the coast which is really amazing idea. I decided to see it because of curiosity and greatness of originality and ideas at all

Editing

Anything that I did here was empowering the colors of the sunrise to show this beautiful and amazing place as best as possible

In my camera bag

Well, I use my second fellow during my travels means Thule backpack. Nothing special inside. I am not professional. So, I use one set: NIKON D810 + Sigma 24-70 Art version. That's enough. Of course not forgetting about the snacks.

Feedback

Wherever you go take the camera with you. They are saying that we have golden hours to make the pictures. Maybe, but I do not stick to this so often. Simply, try to make as many shots as possible at every time of the day. You do not need a sunny day. Cloudly one is even more interesting. Night as well. You do not need any famous places to make an interesting shot, the most interesting ones are close by. Believe me. Think about the shot before. Living in the same place for some time it is very easy to know when or what happens with the scene you see every day, every night. What crop, or position you are going to use? You can easily check it each day and use it for the best shot. That will make your life easier. Do not give up, never. If not this time maybe next. Do not lose the opportunity. In this kind of condition, you will have another chance every day, every night. And remember that's not equipment is making you a photographer. That's you, only you. Limited equipment is making you more creative. So, go, take the shots, and share them with others.
