Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken from a pier on the lake in front of the city of Como, in Italy.

Time

It was 5PM. I was there with my camera waiting for something to shoot and in a few minutes the sky turned pink...such a great sunset!

Lighting

Yes! Definetely natural pink light coming from a lucky sunset!

Equipment

For this shot I used my SONY a7S with a 24-70mm lens, a 1000x ND filter and a tripod.

Inspiration

I can say the sky inspired me this time!

Editing

Yes, I did basic color correction in Lightroom and then removed noise and add a little bit of extra grading in Photoshop.

In my camera bag

I usually take my Sony A7s with a 24-70 mm lens and a 70-200 mm lens with me. Few accessories such as extra batteries and SD cards, a tripod and an eMotimo TB3 for timelapses.

Feedback

The thing here is to be lucky, but also fast enough to frame your shot in that lapse of time!
