Behind The Lens

Location

Ormos Panagias, Sithonia, Halkidiki, Greece.

Time

11.00am (Approx)

Lighting

Plenty of options are up for grabs due to the large broken clouds. Using a low f stop to capture as much detail as possible can give stunning results with the clouds giving a good spread of balance across the shot.

Equipment

Camera: Canon 60D. Lens: Tokina 11-16mm @16mm f14.

Inspiration

Just the boat, seeing it in a partially restored condition I knew it would make a popular subject to capture. Along with the rolling cloud and the surroundings it was an opportunity not to be missed.

Editing

A 5 shot bracketed image for HDR compiled in Photomatix Pro and finished using Photoshop 6.

In my camera bag

Camera's: Canon 60D, Canon 5Dmk3 (New). Lenses: Canon 40mm f2.8, 50mm f1.8, 18-55mm f5.6 (kit), 55-250mm f4 zoom, Tokina 11-16mm f2.8 Wide Angle. Various filters, remote trigger.

Feedback

I went out that morning intending to explore the coast of Sithonia, Halkidiki, on the way I took a wrong turn, ended up on a dirt road and followed it to its end and this was it. I had all I needed with me so taking the shot was not a problem just had to walk around and evaluate the scene to get as much as I could from it.
