Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Le Bar Manila Bay - Sofitel Philippine Plaza Hotel Manila Philippines.

Time

I was on holiday in this photo. I've heard that Manila Bay sunset is one of the best in the world. It was well worth the two and half hours of wait, and in my opinion, it is indeed one of the best sunsets in the world.

Lighting

I did not adjust the lighting at all.

Equipment

This was shot on a Nikon D5100, with 55-300mm f/5.7 lens. No other equipment is involved.

Inspiration

Sunsets remind me of my childhood. I remember playing hide and seek with my friends after school. I'd sit patiently behind a banana tree and see orange colour glistening on a banana leaf. I'd stay there until my mum would call me to come home for dinner. I miss my Mum.

Editing

None

In my camera bag

I'd always have my D5100 Nikon DSLR Camera plus my 18-55mm, 55-300mm, wide angle and tripod. I am a fan of nature and night photography.

Feedback

I live in Queensland Australia. During the summer and springtime. The sky would fill with hues of pink and pastel colours before the sun settled. The sunsets in Grand Canyon, however, were unforgettable. We were on a helicopter ride and did not manage to get a good shot of it.
