Behind The Lens

Location

My wife and I were on a 3-day trip to the island of Bohol, Philippines and our rented room was on a beach front. We are usually early risers and caught this scene as a boat was going out to take tourists on a boat ride. My wife took the shot.

Time

This is a shot that my wife is very proud of. As we are usually early risers, we changed into our swimming gear for an early swim and get a glimpse of the sunrise. My wife had the camera in her hand as we were going out on the beach, she took the shot as she caught the boat going out to sea with the rising sun on the horizon. This was about 5:20 in the morning.

Lighting

my wife wanted the whole scene to be silhouettes against the sun rising across the horizon

Equipment

I forgot the full specs of the camera because we lost it many years ago, but it was one of those tough series by olympus.

Inspiration

was just a random vacation shot taken by my wife who's an amateur photographer, I guess it was luck and good timing that we were there to witness such a scene.

Editing

just some minor adjustments in contrast and brigtness

In my camera bag

canon 1000D with kit lens and 70-300mm USM

Feedback

I know that dawns and dusks are good times to take photos and my wife and I are usually early risers. So we took the advantage as we were on a 3-day trip to a beach. We watched sunsets and sunrises and looked for good sceneries to shoot at...
