Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken at Top of Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building,Japan when I travelled last year.

Time

Still remember, that day is cloudy day, i was there about 6pm 19th of May2015. As usual, I arrived earlier to get prepared and looking for a good spot for better composition, and wait the best moment of magic hour.

Lighting

That's all nature light, i admire those citylight, colorful and prosperity.

Equipment

This photo was shot by Fujifilm XE1, with XF10-24mm, my favourite lens. This is 1st time i visit this place, i had use tripod to stable my camera to capture the image. After few shot, a worker come to me and noticed me, there is not allow to use tripod. Luckyly i had capture the images successfully with the tripod.

Inspiration

This one of my favourite photo, i like the composition .When i looking around to get best spot, i found this windows. From near to far, from inside to outside, is interesting.

Editing

For these cityscape,nightscape photograph, properly i wouldn't got 2nd chance to visit back, so i take these shot with low iso, braketing exposure, raw format as possible. About post proccessing, i had fill in color preset, adjust white balance. I also use merge 3 or more exposure by using luminosity mask.

In my camera bag

Visited few city, gain experience, as light as possible. Today i carrying a small size canvas bag, is about 28cm long x 10cm wide x20cm height.Inside got my fujifilm xe1 body with xf27mm f2.8 lens and xf10-24mm lens. 3 batteries, few memory card, and cleaning cloth and blower.

Feedback

Be prepared for landscape,cityscape or nightscape photography. Before visit the place, try to get more infomation from web. Whether is allow using tripod or not, about the forecast of the day. Be patience, while waiting the best moment, and take extra shot.
