Behind The Lens

Location

The picture was taken at Cape Ray, Newfoundland, Canada

Time

Taken around 8:00 am

Lighting

The lighting was sunny, with some diffused light from existing cloud-cover.

Equipment

My camera gear consisted of: canon 5d3, f4, 24 105mm lens. Lee Big Stopper filter. Manfroto tripod with a Sirui 40x ball head and a vello intervelometer.

Inspiration

The waver were choppy, and I thought I could get a nice dreamy effect, contrasting the rugged rocks of the coastline

Editing

I did minimal processing in LR 6.0. I specifically took out the blue cast that is characteristic of Lee ND filters.

In my camera bag

I normally have 2 cameras: a 5d Mark 3 and a 7d Mark 2. I carry the following lens: f2.8 16-35 L lens, L f4.0 24 - 105mm lens, L series f2.8 70 - 200 mm, series 2 lens, and a f4 100 - 400mm L lens

Feedback

Take your time. Anytime you photograph Long Exposure, pre focus in auto, then switch to M, I sometimes tape down the manual focus so nothing moves. Bracket your shots, even though the exposure times can vary from seconds to minutes (I've gone as high as 8 minutes, depending on the light. Most importantly, figure out what you want the photo to say. Let it speak to you. Wait for the best lighting. BE PATIENT!
