Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in the Pacific Ocean at Harris Beach Oregon

Time

4:04 PM pst in January 2015

Lighting

it was taken in late afternoon natural light without flash

Equipment

hand held using my Sony A58 slt with the 18-55mm kit lens

Inspiration

I'm always looking for something different...in this case i set out to take something other than just another picture of a wave...most photograhers concentrate on big waves...i thought to try just the opposite...A"MacroWave" if you will

Editing

The shot was made with the Sony in Black and White mode using Adobe CS2 i selectively adjusted contrast brightness and highlight/shadow and pixel radiace, some sharpening was applied overall..just pretty basic

In my camera bag

A SonyA58 slt

Feedback

I took this photo in calf deep water walking backwards with the camera held low as the approxometly 8" wavelet came ashore....at great risk of getting the Sony wet !...i dont recomend doing so !.
