Location
I took it at Bakio Beach in Vasque Country (Spain).Time
It was about 20:30. The sunset.Lighting
The light was changing so fast because the sun was setting and it was so difficult to have the right exposure.Equipment
I used my Nikon D7100 with the Tokina 11-16 2.8, on a Vanguard Alta Pro 263 AGH tripod.Inspiration
The light was awesome. I was driving my car and saw the sunset, so stopped as soon as possible and runned to the beach with my camera bag and the tripod. I had no time to prepare the shot.Editing
I used Lightroom. ND Grad filter on lightroom, shadows and lights recovery. Saturation, and nothing else.In my camera bag
My Nikon D7100. Tokina 11-16 2.8. Nikkor 35 1.8 G. Tamron 70-300 4-5.6 Di VC. Tamron 90 Di VC 2.8 Macro. Hitech 0.9 ND Grad filter. Hitech 105 mm CPL. Hitech filter holder. Haida 77 mm 10 stops ND. Remote release. 2x Yongnuo 560 III. Yongnuo YN560-TX. Little softbox. 105 cm 5-1 difusser. Lens cloth. Tripod Vanguard Alta Pro 263 AGH.Feedback
Go sooner to have time to scout, there are better places around this to take photos of the sunset. Get your ND grad filters, a CPL and a good tripod. And enjoy.
