Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken on the Plage de Conches inthe Vendee, France

Time

We were out for a walk along the beach before lunch, so around 11:30

Lighting

This was taken early December so it was unusually sunny for that time of year. Since it was in the winter, there was no heat haze that you would normally get with that much sun. It was a nice crisp fresh day.

Equipment

It was hand held, on a Nikon D5200 with a 35mm f1.8 lens. Settings were f16, 1/125mm, ISO 100.

Inspiration

I was taking photos all along the beach, but this section was where the waves were at their best.

Editing

Converted from Raw to Jpeg then cropped.

In my camera bag

I have 35mm, 50mm and 85mm f1.8 prime lenses, a Tamron 70 - 300mm zoom and a Nikon 18 - 200 f4 zoom

Feedback

Make the most of the winter sun.
