Location
The photo was taken on the island of Hvar in the town of Hvar in Croatia.Time
It was just before sunset, and I was inspired by the colours and the long shadows.Lighting
The camera was handheld. I tried to measure the light in the sky to capture the full range of colours from the setting sun.Equipment
I used a Canon 6D with a Canon EF24-105 f / 4L IS USM in 1/200 sec at f / 10.Inspiration
This was quite spontaneous. I was inspired by the colours of the sunset and the long shadows of the people walking in front of me.Editing
I did some editing in Lightroom adjusting exposure and contrast, and Photoshop removed some rubbish on the sidewalk.In my camera bag
Now I have a Canon 6D Mark II, a Canon 24-105mm 1: 4 L IS USM, a Sigma 70-200 APO DG HSM, a Tamron 28-300mm, a speedlite 270EX II and a speedlite 600EX-RT.Feedback
I have always found it difficult to capture good exposures of the sunset. Take lots of test shots and note the exposure and shutter. Experience is the key here.
