Jose, Like this foto & it's POV. I've been here & have a couple of fotos from the other side as the sun is setting. Not sure if you live in PR or just visiting but the Island & it's people are enjoyable

Behind The Lens

Location

This Photo was taken at the lighthouse in Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico.

Time

It was done early in the morning during sunurise.

Lighting

The sky was clear however there were not many clouds in the sky, but it was a beautiful morning.

Equipment

I used a Canon 5d mark iii with a 16-35mm f4ii L Canon lens, the tripod was a Manfrotto. No artificial light was used.

Inspiration

The lighthouse in Cabo Rojo is one of the places most visited in Puerto Rico, there are many cliffs which makes a perfect setting for shooting.

Editing

I edited the photo in Lightroom, not much was done to it, I just recovered some shadows and worked the highlights.

In my camera bag

In my camera bag I carry some Lee filters.

Feedback

If you want to capture a beautiful sunrise make shure you check the weather and get up early in the morining. Try to be there as early as you can so that you can do a scouting to pick the perfect spot.
