Location
I captured this photograph in the sea beach of PURI, ORISSA, INDIA. It is one of my most favorite photograph.Time
This image was captured during sunset.... I waited for more than one hour to capture this. I spotted this place where camels are standing and taking passengers on their back... I just waited for the sun to set just behind the passengers, so that I can get a perfect silhouette. I was so happy to capture this.Lighting
The light was just perfect. This image is captured in the golden hours when sun light just started falling... due to some cloud the sky became orange-red shade... just perfect for shooting. As I still don't have a SLR, I know this was the perfect time to use my Nikon L100 to bring out the best!! I am so happy that it to become People's Choice in silhouettes in sun sets Photo Challenge. Thanks to every who saw this photograph.Equipment
NIKON L100. He is my best friend. I still don't have any tripod too!!Inspiration
The weather and nature inspired me to capture this. Generally, as soon as we see a camel... the first thing comes into mind is dearest, but this is captured in a sea beach!!Editing
I do use post processing. I like Photoscape software mainly for this. Very easy to user friendly. This software is mainly for amateur photographers. Sometime I used Adobe Photoshop aslo... that is mainly for professionals.In my camera bag
My Nikon L100 and kimwipes to clean my camera lens.Feedback
I am learning photography from my other photographer friends.... I still consider me as an amateur photographer. So, I should not give any suggestions for professionals. For the new bees, I can suggest that always keep camera ready to shoot while going out, charge battery properly and keep one backup battery set and memory card. To get a proper sunset photograph, reach well before the sunset, select a frame in your mind in that frame where you want to keep the sun. Try to keep some tree, or birds in background which can really make your work very interesting. Happy clicking...
