Location
I took this photo in Laguna Beach, CA. A little hidden gem called Victoria Beach. You wouldn't even know it was there if you didn't adventure around the cliffs.Time
It was around 3. The tide was down so I took a chance for my first time. So glad I did!Lighting
I got lucky with the clouds muting the harsh sun that day but I used an HDR filter to bring out more detail.Equipment
iPhone! Gasp! I know haha. These little things are great in a pinch!Inspiration
Honestly. That whole area is an inspiration. And the perfect moment where the tourist stood looking up with the waves behind. I got lucky here.Editing
I'm a big fan of snapseed. Used the HDR filter as I mentioned above and toned it down so it didn't look fake like a lot of the HDR filters can make photos look.In my camera bag
Nikon D3200, speed light, reflectors, tripod, prime lens 50mm, back up battery and SD card and my iPhone!Feedback
Check the tides before heading out, nothing like the utter dissapointment of not being able to go to a place because you can't hike there! Check the sunrise and sunset times as well. And always keep your eyes peeled. ????
