The scenery at Varkala Beach in Kerala was truly one to behold. As the waves washed up at the sandy shore, they left behind foam that looked like brush strokes of white paint. The evening sky was rich with pastel blues, purples and peachy hues. The far distance showed the little gleaming lights with the promise of a civilization. If you looked far enough, you could see the horizon melting and the sky becoming one with the sea.

Behind The Lens

Location

Varkala Beach, Kerala, india

Time

---

Lighting

No external lighting source was used. The existing sunlight was used as back lighting.

Equipment

Canon EOS 60D - 18-135kit lens. f/18 | 2Sec. | ISO-100 | 18mm

Inspiration

The sunset was playing with clouds, providing a beautiful natural light. The entire Sea filled with colours and a cool breeze were my inspiration.

Editing

Yes, I used Lightroom for post prepossessing. Only the colours and contrast were increased slightly.

In my camera bag

I am Canon user. I have Lowepro Pro Runner 200AW Backpack Black, Canon EOS 60D (Body with EF-S 18-135 mm II Lens) DSLR Camera, Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens, Sigma 150-500mm f/5-6.3 AF APO DG OS HSM Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon,

Feedback

A 10Stop ND Fillter helps add a blurry effect.
