Location

This shot is at Mare which is a Island of New Caledonia. I took this photo while my dad & I were on a cruise around some of the Pacific.

Time

This photo was taken early afternoon just before we went back on board the cruise ship.

Lighting

Its just all natural lighting in this shot.

Equipment

Since I was away I only had minimal equipment we me. I used Canon 5D MKll with a Tamron 28 mm to 300 mm lens & thats it.

Inspiration

The framing of the trees drew me to the take the photo then with the colour of the sea. It looked like a photo from a travel brochure.Wh

Editing

I only processing I done was contrast & a bit of cropping.

In my camera bag

In my camera bag I have 2 Canon 5D MK ll's with Tamron 28 mm to 300 mm lens on one 5D MK ll body & a Tamron 150 mm to 600 Rmm on the second 5D MKll body. Filters I have ND grads & ND's. A wireless remote, a small torch & some cleaning gear.

Feedback

When traveling you don't get many second chances to retake photos so just take the shot anyway. Remember to have as many memory cards as you need as I had to delete about 200 photos with both my cards were full.
