Behind The Lens
Location
This photo was taken at my favorite vacation spot, Jekyll Island Georgia.Time
This is my favorite image from that trip. It was taken around 7am as the sun was rising.Lighting
The sun gave a beautiful golden glow as it rose.Equipment
I shot the scene with a Canon T4i, and 18-55mm lens, hand held.Inspiration
I love watching the sunrise and sunset over the ocean. The colors are so beautiful.Editing
I really didn't do post processing other than playing with the contrast and highlight to bring out the golden color a little more and cropped a little.In my camera bag
I usually carry my Canon t4i and my 5d Mark II, my 18-55mm Canon lens, my 28-135mm Canon lens and a flash. I sometimes carry a monopod or tripod.Feedback
Sunrise is a beautiful time to shoot but it does require patience. Clouds can offer good texture and depth. Try different angles and adding objects in the foreground can make great sillouettes.
