Behind The Lens

Location

This picture is taken on my morning visit to our local bay at " Corey beach " At Blue Point, Long island, New York.

Time

This was at dawn at a cold but crispy dry morning. I just love those mornings when it's dry and cold, just enjoying those colors that come up .

Lighting

The lighting was just perfect the way it was. No extra lighting needed. I took so many pictures that morning, even long exposure at really early dawn, but tis is and will always be my favorite. ;-)

Equipment

This picture is taken with my canon rebel T5. A regular 18-50mm lens. Sometimes that is all you need. It's the person behind the camera that makes the picture, not the camera or lens.

Inspiration

I am a grown woman with ADHD. I discovered a couple of years ago that even getting up at the crack of dawn or stay up late to take pictures, relaxes me and clears my head. For me that is amazing! So I love getting up to see these colors. It's unbelievable how much peace and energy that gives to a person.. I feel completely different than before I started 2,5 years ago. ;-)

Editing

All I do to my jpeg pictures is to up the contrast and clarity a bit and that's it.. Nothing else needed.

In my camera bag

I always have my 3 camera's with me. 2Canon t5's. A 18-50mm canon lens, a 150-500mm sigma lens, and a Canon PowerShot SX50HS to take my moonshots. ;-) And some spare battery's etc..

Feedback

Just keep an eye on the weather, get up early and see that you can get to the beach 1 hour before sunrise, enjoy the blue hour, sunrise and take a deep breath.. Just enjoy! ;-)
