Behind The Lens
Location
Hill lookout over mine & lake.Time
8 - 9pmLighting
Natural lighting. So much better that way.Equipment
Canon 5d, carbon fiber tripod & 24 - 105 mm lens.Inspiration
The cloud cover & sun positioning were very ideal for the shot. I loved how the sun light / rays permeated through the clouds but also the way it changed the look over the lake. Don't see many sunsets like this.Editing
Yes. Exposure, shadows, black / white & colour adjustment. Wanted it to look really nice but not too overdone either as I have seen too many sunsets overexposed.In my camera bag
Camera body, 2 lenses, flash units, batteries, memory cards & a few filters.Feedback
To be honest it really came down to timing. If I were any earlier or later, the shot would not have been the same. As well, it was taken in manual mode with hdr mode on. Perfect timing / patience, manual mode, correct exposure & shutter speed selected.
