Location
This photo was taken in Portugal, at Lagoa de Albufeira. A unique place with characteristics of its own.Time
This is one of my favorite photos. I left home to take some pictures at the sunrise and was wondering around the beach freezing, taking pictures at the beautiful sky colored by the sunrise in my back. a friendly fishermen was trying his luck at the sea and after some short conversation i got his approval to take him some pictures. This was one of the few i took him. This was taken on January 4, 2015 at 07:45 AMLighting
The light was very low as the sun was starting to rise from my back and giving this amazing colors in the sky and the fog coming from the ocean.Equipment
This was shot with a Canon 6D, a EF 24-105mm f/4L lens on a tripod.Inspiration
As a photography enthusiast, I try to photograph different subjects in different situations, trying to tell the history of that moment with one click. I´m still learning about photography and it gives me great joy to take my camera and go wherever and whenever, it takes me to know new people and new places.Editing
There was no post-processing in this image.In my camera bag
I always have in my backpack my trusty Canon 6D, a Canon 24-105mm f/4L lens, a Canon Speedlite 430EX II, and my tripod. I like to travel light and this equipment is what I normally have with me.Feedback
Portugal is a beautiful country, with unique characteristics. The weather is good and allows you to travel and capture beautiful and unique pictures. It has a big variety of landscapes, people and activities, situations that you can take advantage as a photographer, professional or amateur as my self. Dawn and dusk are always moments to take in consideration, not discarding daylight conditions when you have plenty of motives to capture. Be as ready as you can for the unexpected moments, those are usually my best pictures. Have patience, try to plan ahead, and most of all enjoy it.
