Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at the Pinnacles, overlooking Woolamai beach on Phillip Island.

Time

It was taken at sunset in January

Lighting

It was very dark of course but the setting sun I knew would give a warmth to the image

Equipment

This was shot using a Fuji xt2 camera, 16-55 lens on a tripod. No filters and only minor editing in Lightroom

Inspiration

The Pinnacles is a magical location- the rock formation and all the small rocks at its base. It’s reached by walking around 2kms from Woolamai car park

Editing

All I did was to lighten the image in Lightroom, crop it slightly, increasing the exposure, add contrast and a little saturation

In my camera bag

I carry my camera and two lenses - 16-55 and 18-135. I have a polarising filter for both lenses and plenty of lens cloths
