Location
This photo was taken believe it or not, not sailing on the sea but on the land. The ship is actually tourist atraction and beach bar located in Hotel resort Solaris near Sibenik, Croatia.Time
It was early summer as I can remember and I didn't have my DSLR camera with me but as I got a funny idea for picture, I took it with my mobile phone. Hard thing was to set it firmly on the wooden hand rail of the ship with support. Finaly after few failed attempts to set it up straight I took off one of my shoes and put it behind it and composed the frame. Offcourse I set timer for autoshutter. And that was it.Lighting
It was plain simple. Last thing you want to do is to take portraits sith direct summer sunliht. But hey...turned out people like hard contrast.Equipment
Only my mobile phone camera on auto and self timer.Inspiration
Heh...my imaginationEditing
It is pseudo HDR from single JPEG.In my camera bag
Only my Nikon D3100 with Nikkor 35mm f1.8 DX lens. Love shooting with prime lenses.Feedback
Image is in your eye. Image-imagine...see it before you take it. Be creative and let your imagination flow and inspiration will come and rise. It isn't necessary to biy expensive cameras and lenses for making something good. Camera can have limited resolution. Lenses have limited angle of view but your creativity and imagination are endless.
