Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken at Flisvos Marina, near Faliro, Greece.

Time

Before leaving home, i checked the weather forecast. When i saw "cloudy", i knew something good would happen. Luckily, the clouds appeared near sunset time. I was glad i stayed!

Lighting

Nothing particular. Just right place (protographs were not allowed, as told, but i guess i was the reason for putting new signs...) at the right time!

Equipment

This was shot on a Canon EOS 5D mark II. Lens: EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM and a Vanguard Alta+ tripod.

Inspiration

Cloud formations, quality of light.I always run after them!

Editing

This is an HDR photo. 6 frames from -3 to +2, highlight tone priority activated. For noise reduction, Noiseware Professional was used for each frame. Then, the HDR was generated with Photomatix Pro. The final image was processed in Photoshop, with Topaz Detail.

In my camera bag

For the time being, i carry a Nikon D800, one 24-70 2.8 nikkor lens, and a 50mm f1.4G

Feedback

Always carry your camera everywhere!I shot this during a typical family walk... Look for quality light, check the weather forecast ans inspect the area, searching for your right spot. I guess that this isn't something new...hehe!
