Behind The Lens

Location

This image was taken in North Tyneside whitley bay uk. Planned for the tide and the sunrise.

Time

This is sunrise taken around november October time so would of been around 7 to 8 am

Lighting

I had planned for the sunrise shot but never expected the colours I got in the sky. And along with the reflections and calm sea makes this image.

Equipment

Taken with a Nikon D7200 using a sigma wide angle 10mm-20mm

Inspiration

It's my go to place for sunrises as it's fairly local. I had just started out in photography at the time and was astounded by the colours in the sky from sunrises and sunsets.

Editing

Not much post processing here. Added a little vibrancy and pulled the shadows up. Leveled the blacks and whites.

In my camera bag

Nikon D7200 along with 3 lenses my wide angle 10-20mm and 2 nikon long range 18-140 and 70 - 300 .

Feedback

Use weather apps to check tides and cloud coverage . High cloud is best for colourful skys at sunrise and sunset.
