This is Crosby beach on merseyside. I took this photo in a rush. I was driving down the M58 chasing the fading light.Time
Taken about 5.30 to 6ishLighting
i went with natural light and then lightened the shadows in Lightroom. That was it.Equipment
I used hand held camera. As I said, I was in a rush. I'm trying to replicate this photo - next time I'll use tripod and spend more time on the shot.Inspiration
The iron man is a tourist attraction in Crosby - it's called Another Place and was created by Anthony Gormley. I have taken thousands of photos of the Iron Men as have lots of people. That challenge is to create something different to everybody else.Editing
I just lightened the shadows and cropped, that was it.In my camera bag
Cannon 6d, 40-70 m lens. 70-300m lensFeedback
You need time, tripod, natural light, knowledge of times of sunrise/sunset, composition and framing.
