Location
I took this photo in Lee River at Xingpin, Quilin - ChinaTime
This photo was taken at blue hour (around 5:30 - 6:30 PM), when the fisherman finished his work and going to go homeLighting
The beautiful lighting in sunset hour and beauty landscape of Lee river with mountains in the background in the eyes, you can't catch all things of that in to camera frame as you saw, I used the widest lens Sigma 12-24mm (@12mm Fulframe) to catch this moment, it cant load all beauty things you needEquipment
Because of sunset hour, and when you use the ultra wide, so many things will be get into your frame, include the large sky in the background, the sky was lighter than front ground, So I need GND filter to balance it. I use BOMBO holder system fit in Sigma 12-24mm with very easy and fast access accompany with Formatt Hitech filter systemInspiration
The story a bout the fisherman and birds was interested me, how he train his birds catching fish was wonderful, and how beauty of Xingping landscapeEditing
Because bad weather, so any thing almost grey, I increasing saturation for more activeIn my camera bag
I love Nikon system with D600, now is D750 with some lens : Sigma 12-24mm, Tamron 24-70; Nikon 14-24mm; Nihon 70-200mm, Tripod; BOMBO holder system and filtersFeedback
The key are I want to express the rocks under water in front ground and the large beauty landscape background, so try to use as large as much wide lens you have, I used Sigma 12-24mm @12mm Fulframe is the widest lens in that time to express my idea. Using filters to balance lighting will have better detail in result
