Location
Wreck beach along The Great Ocean Road in south west Victoria Australia.Time
This was taken mid afternoon. The sun off the water and sand was blinding!Lighting
A moderate amount of post processing in Lightroom was required.Equipment
Canon 7d mk2 Sigma 10-20@10mm Manfrotto tripod.Inspiration
Really enjoy exploring different angles and perspectives while shooting to capture something unique. I wanted to show the viewer the texture of the anchor and to have it as an interesting foreground subject. Afterall its called Wreck Beach for a reason.Editing
Basic Lightroom adjustments. Mainly exposure because of the harsh lighting conditions of such a sunny day. Minor cropping to position the anchor where I wanted it.In my camera bag
Generally speaking I buy the best quality gear I can afford but i research throughly beforehand to ensure it will be apporiate. A sturdy tripod was essential for this shot. I was literally being sand blasted while on the beach that day. A lens pen is a must for keeping my glass clean.Feedback
I always experiment with different camera settings because it's difficult to see on an lcd screen. Learn how to read the histogram to capture a correct exposure.
