Behind The Lens

Location
I took this picture of Edro III which rests off the rock near to the Sea Caves northwest of Paphos in Cyprus while on holiday during October 2016.
Time
From our rented villa, my wife tolerated my eagerness of getting pictures of this fabulous shipwreck by enduring a two and a half hour walk to get to the bay. This picture was taken just after the sun had dipped below the horizon and most other tourist had packed up their cameras and had left the area, leaving me with an unobstructed view.
Lighting
Nature and this world are so creative...The sky provided wonderful lighting with beautiful red & orange hues that gently lite the right side of the ship.
Equipment
For this shot, I used my Canon EOS 600D, with the great Canon budget lens - EF50mm f/1.8 II with a UV filter (always attached to protect the lens.) To keep the camera perfectly still, I used my Manfrotto Compact MKC3-P02 tripod with a weighty bag hung from the adjustment screw.
Inspiration
My inspiration for this shoot, was largely due to taking a long exposure image that had good subject matter and lighting. I felt that all these elements came together nicely in this image with a smooth sea due to the 78 second exposure time. The ship wreck listing over to one side and being so close to the rocky shoreline made for a great composition. Lastly the beauty of the golden hour lighting with the complementary colours, blue and orange working well together.
Editing
Firstly I improved the sharpness, and contrast, once happy with these results, I moved on to the colours, when making these adjustments, I am always on the side of less is more, so the luminance/saturation sliders are only increase -/+ 10% . A Gradient mask was used to enhance the sky.
In my camera bag
I have recently upgraded my Canon EOS 600D to a Canon EOS 6D. I now only carry 2 lenses, my new favourite EF50mm 1.8 STM (replaces my EF50mm f/1.8 II which I dropped), and the robust Canon 70-300mm 1:4 5.6 L IS USM. Manfrotto Compact MKC3-P02 tripod. A remote timer/shutter release. Hoya circular polarising and B+W 10 stop ND filters for each lens. Loads of memory cards and a couple of spare batteries.
Feedback
My tips for getting a great shot on the coast: Check the weather and tide times before heading off. Take your time in selecting where to position your camera and how you are going to compose your image, don't be afraid to search out a unique angle or perspective. Use a remote shutter release and you camera's 'mirror lock up' to reduce camera shake. Coastal ares often have strong winds, an empty bag can be filled with some stones or sand, and be attached to your tripod, this will help reduce the effects of the wind moving your camera. Use a low ISO to reduce the amount of noise created on images with long exposure. Shooting in the golden hour will help in creating nice colours.
