Behind The Lens
Location
Velassaru resort in MaldivesTime
it was around 2:00 pm and the weather was so perfect that I did not realized that I have been taking photos for hours. it was taken on 9/9/2017Lighting
I was practicing the long shutter techniques and I came up with great pics and this was one of themEquipment
it was Taken using my Canon 5D II camera, canon 17-40mm lens at iso 100, f/11, 19mm and it was for 4 seconds with no flash. I used my manfrotto tripod. i was using ND1000 filter.Inspiration
I am a fan of landscape photos and whenever i see a great photo I say to myself, you will do that one day and yes, I didEditing
I know that landscape photos need special post processing especially to correct the white balance, contrast if needed. moreover, i corrected the saturation and the sharpness. I used Adobe Lightroom to do soIn my camera bag
when I decided to visit Maldives, i made sure to have everything with me: my 5D II camera, my lenses (Canon 17-40mm, canon 70-200mm, Canon 24-104, Canon 50mm and canon 135mm), my 2X canon extender, my manfrotto tripod, my filters (ND2, ND4, ND8, ND1000, FD, Polarizer), my memory cards (2x16gb, 2x8gb, 2x4gb, and 4 2xgb)Feedback
i always advise not to copy other works; try to come up with your own perspective and fill your frame as you see it and not as other did.
