Silhouetted Fishermen

From my kayak, the sun diffused through the early morning mist, a chance encounter with these two young fishermen.

Behind The Lens

Location

Lake of Bays in Ontario, Canada

Time

At Sunrise

Lighting

The mist diffused the early morning light

Equipment

Taken from my kayak, handheld, FujiFilm X100T using a built in filter

Inspiration

The beautiful light with the fisherman silhouetted against the early sunrise. I especially liked the shape of the hat on the subject on the right.

Editing

The only post-processing was a slight crop to remove a small circle of foam floating on the surface of the water.

In my camera bag

All Canon; 5D MK III and 7D MK II, 50mm 1.2, 24-70mm 2.8, 70-200mm 2.8 and 100-400mm 4.5 to 5.6, a few different polsrising filters

Feedback

To be honest, for me, the magic of the image was the timing, the light diffused through the mist and the in-camera filter. Being in the right place at the time i.e. getting up early and seizing the day!
