Location
This photo was taken in a very beautiful small village in Elba, Italy (Italian: Isola d'Elba). The Village of ChiessiTime
After a beautiful day at the beach, we returned home very tired... ( yes its true, holidays can make you more sleepy...). While the family stayed home, I took my stuff and went for a walk around the village. So, I took this photo at 20:15Lighting
The natural light of the sunset with the lamps along the road provided a beautiful environment.Equipment
This was shot with a Canon 5D IV, Canon 16-35 lens with a 10 stop filter on a Vanguard Alta CA204AT travel tripod.Inspiration
There were some clouds in the sky and a perfect sunset light. I wanted to create a warm environment around the silhouette of the two fishermen in the center of the image. (Yes, there are two fishermen in the picture) But then, when I looked better at the scenery, I found it very nice to compose the image with the road and the lamps lights across the road. I had everything I wanted: boats, fishermen, sunset, clouds, water, road and the village.Editing
I took 3 different exposures and merge it using luminosity masks.In my camera bag
In my bag, I take my Canon 5D IV, Canon 16-35mm f4 L, Sigma 70-200 f2.8, Canon 50mm 1.8 STM, Giottos MTL9351B tripod and some nd-pl filters.Feedback
Know well the place, look what surrounds you, look at the shadows, try to imagine the final image and have patience... Until the perfect moment comes, just keep shooting!
