Behind The Lens

Location

This was shot down at Piha, West Auckland, New Zealand.

Time

ROughly around 7-8pm.

Lighting

All natural and light from the landscape, street lights and stars.

Equipment

Canon 6D and Samyang 24mm ƒ1.4 lens.

Inspiration

I had been wanting to shoot Piha for a while, and finally had the chance to get there but the clouds became a nuisance.

Editing

This shot, like all my Milky Way shots, are edited in Lightroom and Photoshop.

In my camera bag

Mainly my 6D, 14mm ƒ2.8 lens and 24mm ƒ1.4 lens.

Feedback

Be patient, wait for the best time and just capture what you see in front of you.
