Location
I captured this one in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, while staying oceanside with the family.Time
The early bird gets the worm. While the rest of the vacationers slept in, I rise early on a July morning to get in position on the beach before the son began to reveal its first light.Lighting
The was an incredible lavender/pink hue that began to envelope the horizon, and the taller building of North Myrtle created great perspective.Equipment
This was my Canon EOS 50D, which I’ve since upgraded. Great camera! I used a Canon 75-300 lens.Inspiration
I got tired of only enjoying breathtaking sunrises while on vacation. I wanted to remember this one.Editing
Very light editing on contrast.In my camera bag
Canon EOS 70D, Canon 75-300mm lens, Tamron 17-50 mm lens and a Sigma “Bigma” 50-500 mm lens.Feedback
Get up early to get set, and watch the optimal colors, cloud patterns and landscape assets.
