Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken at chapmans peak in south Africa. I'm a self-taught photographer.

Time

It was a windy day in cape town on the 19 October 2014 and nice and hot at 1:11pm the afternoon when I shot the photo.

Lighting

I have used a polarising filter because the sun was reflecting of the watter.

Equipment

Camera model: NIKON D7000 Lens model: Nikon 18-200mm 3.5-5.6 VR Filter: polarising filter F-stop: f/7.1 Exposure time: 1/160 sec ISO speed: ISO-200 Focal length: 18mm Metering mode: Pattern 35mm focal length: 27

Inspiration

I love nature and contrast and it just seemed perfect.

Editing

It was shot in RAW. So used Adobe Photoshop Lightroom to convert it to jpg .

Feedback

Play with your camera settings and white balance and take more than one shot.
