For over a hundred years , Al Max lighthouse stands as a witness of the beauty and charm of such a spot at the west of Alexandria
it lies where both sea water and fresh water meet together , in which makes it an environment for rare species of fish and migratory birds , . Also the high percentage of the iodine in its weather is very healthy .
That’s why the scenes vary in the morning between a fisherman throwing his trawl to an amateur holding his hook , An Elderly who went out to smell the iodine saturated morning breeze and a photographer holding his camera to capture those unique scenes. this is one photo from the photo series called " Al Max under clouds "

Location
The photo Was taken In Egypt - Alexandria city - Almax in front of Al Max lighthouseTime
the photo was taken two hours after the sunrise. i was in the location early waiting the fishers come back from their tripLighting
this cloudy weather was my hero that day . it looks like a golden hour shoot with soft lights & shadowsEquipment
i took that shoot with my Old Nikon camera D7100 with the default lens 18-105Inspiration

actually i made many changes in the photo after raw processing . i had a big challenge i separated the sea with the lighthouse in a new layer from the rest of the image .. to make the horizontal straiten without effecting the standing angel of the model . because he wasn't standing 90 degree angel like he appears in the photo . i popped the details up with the great free Nik software . using the details extractor . then i made the color grading & correction by the Photoshop adjustment toolsIn my camera bag
usually i have my two bodies from Nikon in my bag . D7100 with the 18-35 Sigma art lens on it & D810 with the 50 fixed lens on it . i have two V1 flashes from Godex and tripodFeedback
if you need to take good photos for fishers you have to wake up early . because they are going out before the sun rises . and having unique shapes for the clouds requires going in the same place many times every time you will take a new clouds shape
