Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken on one of the most awesome spots in Iceland. It's called Bruarfoss. There is a funny story behind this shot... We needed to get up at 4.30am to shoot this pearl before sunrise. So, I was doing my thing, and my travel companion took some shots of me in the scene which you can see here : https://plus.google.com/u/0/+JorunnGudlaugsdottir/posts/X92eeW1LSnj At some point I realised that I earlier told my travel companion that in order to get the best results "I become the landscape". ( http://www.lucthibau.com/flow-what-is-that/ ) No wonder I could hardly find myself in her pic...

Time

Sunrise : 4:30 in the morning

Lighting

Without light, no life... My slogan is very strong about that : My photographs are " communications in light ".

Equipment

I have both Canon Mark Ds and Nikon D810 with a variaty in lenses from wide angles to tele's. Also a variation on tripods like Velbon and Sirui

Inspiration

I'm very lucky to be able to get in the flow right away, ones I'm in the field. Inspiration just comes when I'm in there. I wrote an article about what it is that I experience and a working on workshops to help fellow photographer get into that state of being. It is very hard to put in words what happens. But you can find my attempt to explain it here : http://www.lucthibau.com/flow-what-is-that/

Editing

Yes, of course. I shoot bracketing mostly. And afterwards put all the bracketed shots into photoshop, and work on the images with the help of Tony Cuypers Luminosity masking technique, which is tmho is the best tool to get everything out of your images. http://www.lucthibau.com/luminosity-masks/

In my camera bag

I never leave without my wide angle lenses. For my Canon Mark III it's the 16-35mm 1:2,8 and for the Nikon the 14-24mm 1:2,8. Then just for the sake of it I take the Canon telezoom beast 70-210mm 1:2,8 and the macro 100mm 1:2,8 just in case small things catch my eyes... For the rest the usual stuff like lens cleaning cloth, filters, and screw drivers not to forget....

Feedback

Yes. Get out of your mind and into your heart. :-)
