Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken from our hotel room during our short vacation in Seoul, South Korea on 2015.

Time

this was taken few mins after the the sunset between 6pm to 7pm, i patiently waited for the blue hour and also waited for the car to get those lights.

Lighting

actually, there's nothing special about the lighting you just have to wait for the right time, the lights in the building added more beauty in this photo.

Equipment

I used a Fujifilm XT1 on this shot on top of a tissue box. set the timer and that's it :) i did't used the gorillapod, the tissue box is good enough :D

Inspiration

i really love the blue hour because i rarely see this in middle east due to humid weather condition so anytime that i have a chance to shoot a blue hour it is a must for me to shoot :D

Editing

i did a couple of exposures and combine them together to get all those lights from the cars.

In my camera bag

A fujifilm XT1, with 35mm 1.4 and 18-55, a gorilla pod and that's it. im ready to rock and roll \m/

Feedback

Just be patient and be prepared, it is very important to set your shot early before the blue hour. take as many shots as you like to get more details of the scene. check the weather also. goodluck!
