Behind The Lens

Location

We crusied from Singapore to Osaka Japan on the Holland America ship the VOLENDAM. This is part of the ship's excurson activity. While in Hong Kong we took a ferry from Hong Kong to see the sights of Macau, the former Portuguese colony. We were taken to a high viewing point to look down on the harbor and the city

Time

Mid morning with the fog still shrouding a portion the vista.

Lighting

The lighting was available light with a mixture of sun and fog.

Equipment

The camera is a Nikon D7000 hand held with a Nikkor 18-200 DX VR 3.5 to 5.6 lens. The exposure is ISO 200 f8 at 1/1250 AF-S.

Inspiration

The altitude at which this picture was taken gave a very intriging view of harbor and the high rise buildings. Of note is tall lines of the buildings, many windows interesting colors and the many buildings in the back ground shrouded with fog.

Editing

Yes, I shot all of my photos in RAW and do post processing with Apple's Aperture 3 to enhance the picture.

In my camera bag

A Nikon D7000 guide book for ready referance, remote cable, extra batteries, Hoody viewer, expo disc for setting white balance, and polarizer filter

Feedback

Just use your basics of photography - f-stop for depth of field, ISO to adjust to ambient light and shutter speed
