Behind The Lens

Location

I took this picture in Yogykarta, Indonesia. Near Gadjah Madah University

Time

At sunset. on golden hours. There still a blue color on the the sky and yellow-orange color from the sunset.

Lighting

I don't use any artificial lighting for this pic. just natural light.

Equipment

My only camera- Sony SLT A58 Lens Sigma DC 18-200 mm 1:3.5-6.3 and tripod

Inspiration

I just really love to take a landscape photo. and the location I took this picture just gave me a big view of the sunset. So that day I decide to take a picture of it.

Editing

I can't use photoshop at the time and for me it was really hard to use. So I do my post-processing in lightroom 5. I just change the highlight, white balance, and other stuff. Mainly, I just play with the scale until it fit with what I want.

In my camera bag

of course my camera- Sony SLT A58, my only lens Sigma DC 18-200 mm 1:3.5-6.3 , a set for cleaning lens, two square filter- nd8 and nd16. Sometime I carry a flash Yongnuo YN-560III only when I went hunting night street or when I really need it. All of it are cheap and easy to found. But that doesn't mean you can't take a great picture.

Feedback

If you want to take photo like this you need to find out the great time on your place to take sunset picture and a great location where you can see the sunset directly with less obstacle of the sunset. And take the picture more than one. I took this same picture about seven time. I'm no pro. But base on my experience, all you need to do is keep practicing, keep take a picture, and keep thinking that you want to take a picture that far more better then the one you take before. And you can make a amazing picture.
