Location
I took this photo in Marina di Pietrasanta, a small sea town in Italy.Time
It was winter, there you have sunset at around 5.30. I remember the wind was blowing really hard, but the temperature was quite warm though.Lighting
Just the setting sun!Equipment
I shot this with a Nikon D-3200 and a Nikkor 18-55.Inspiration
Winter sunsets on a deserted beach...that's enough I guess.Editing
Just basic correction of white balance, add some contrast and opened the shadows a bit.In my camera bag
I started shooting with a dslr not so long ago so I only own a Nikon D-3200 and a couple of lenses, apart from that, since I really enjoy experimenting with long exposures, I always have a tripod in the back of my car.Feedback
I remember I stood in the very same position for a long time because I wanted to capture the moment when the sun was in line with the end of the pier, so at first I worked on the composition and then I waited until the sun was in the right position. The only advice I can give is to know what you want and to be patient enough to get it!
