Behind The Lens

Location

The place was Abu Dahbi in the inner harbor.

Time

This was about midnight after the crowds declined.

Lighting

The lights were as you see them. I looked for a spot where I could get some reflections but the colors and sharpness are what makes this image tho.

Equipment

Sony A7R11 with their 24/70 lens. Manfroto tripod.

Inspiration

The architecture of the Emirates is so dynamic that is inspires you to try to capture its force. I wanted to shoot at night when the crowds were absent and the contrasts were at their highest. I always go for the "WOW" shots.

Editing

The pic speaks for itself with a slight bit of contrast and clarity added.

In my camera bag

My new Sony, an adapter in order to accommodate my old Nikon lenses, a wide angle Nikon lens unless I'm shooting action stuff, tripod, Lightning Bug, and a Lee filter system.

Feedback

You've got to prowl around the general area to scout for possible locations but nothing replaces shooting a lot and changing your perspective from time to time. Patience is the real prerequisite for fine art.
