Behind The Lens

Location

This image was taken from Mrs Maquaries Chair Farm Cove Sydney Harbour. Sydney Australia.

Time

This was taken at 5:35pm as the sun was going down during that Golden Hour.

Lighting

The lighting was all natural as the sun was setting it was giving a beautiful orange glow underneath the bridge.

Equipment

Equipment used was a Nikon D610, f/8, ISO 100, 120sec at 35mm using the Tokina 17-35mm f/4 lens, as well as a tripod and a B+W ND6 filter.

Inspiration

This place always inspires me, because you can come to this spot day after day and you very rarely get the same photo twice. This place is best with clouds or with out clouds and during the Golden Hour of Sunset. You never get sick of coming to a place like this when you live in the best city in the world :-)

Editing

The only post processing that was done was adjust the hightlights and contrast & added a little sharpening

In my camera bag

Nikon D610, Sigma 50mm f/1.4, Nikon 24-85mm f/3.5, Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 Tokina 17-35mm f/4. Also carry remote shutter release, set of Cokin P series ND Grad filters and a B+W 10stop filter.

Feedback

The one advice i can give is, that if you have a favorite location like i have with this image, is you keep going back to it and experiment with different techniques and angles and improve yourself for when that special moment comes..
