Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken in Praça dos Cristais , located in Brasília , Brazil.Time
I reached the place still night , just before sunrise.Lighting
As the sun had not yet risen... My biggest concern were the spots of light that illuminate the sculptures and buildings.I made several tests to achieve a balance between the lights , so that the light spot to stay as the sun in the pictureEquipment
In this case I just used a Canon 5D MK III , with lens Canon 27-70mm USM II F2.8 + Manfrotto Tripod , and filter ND Cokin + Black card in the sky .Inspiration
I am a great admirer of landscape photography. A traveler seeking new landscapes, even in places already very photographed. I've never seen a picture of this beach to show a long exposure with the sun already high . My biggest inspiration was trying to show a common place , photographed by many photographers , in a new and unique way.Editing
Small correction on the horizon and high lights .In my camera bag
I already had and tested several different devices from different brands . Today , I carry with me in my backpack , a Canon 5D MK III with Canon lenses , 8-15mm f4 , f2.8 16-35mm , 24-70mm USM II 2.8 and a 70-200mm USM II 2.8. Depending on the place , ND filters , tripod and whatever it takes to place.Feedback
Get up early , very early … You have to know the time and exact position where the sun will rise. Being in this place before, so get compose the image the way you planned. In a situation like this , with the sun already high, one must have some sort of filter gradual ND.
