One of my favorite of the nc waterfalls I’ve visited it’s quite the challenge to and especially out but well worth it to see this beauty roar.

The clouds opened up for only a couple minutes to be able to get this shot off while I found this driftwood and cool patterns in the sand.

Someone just had to stop and get a photo of this. Taken at Jennette's Pier in Nags Head - Outer Banks (NC) during sunrise.

While out shooting the Milky Way at Oak Island, NC the clouds came and found myself moving under the hurricane crippled pier.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken at Jordan Lake in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Time

It was sometime around 9pm - 12am.

Lighting

The light pollution in the area is quite prevalent but just tried using it to my advantage to bring out more colors.

Equipment

I used the Canon 5DMIV with a 50mm f/1.2 lens held up by Really Right Stuff 34L + BH55 combo.

Inspiration

I found this island a year or two before I have been wanting to get the Milky Way over it. Once I found a good day when it would be aligned, clear skies and also the water level low enough to get this vantage point. I went out and tried to capture it. The problem came up while there that a wide angle lens made the island tiny so I improvised and strapped the largest lens I had at that time and decided to make this 9 shot pano instead.

Editing

This shot consists of a 9 shot vertical pano with each of the 9 containing 10 shots for noise reduction. After the image was stitched I applied contrast in Photoshop using luminosity masks.

In my camera bag

While this was shot on a Canon im currently shooting with a Nikon D850 and Z7 with Zeiss 15mm f/2.8 and 50mm f/1.4 also Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8, Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 and Tamron 24-70mm

Feedback

Expose the shot using the histogram and try and get as close as you can to the right as you. This was you have a lot more data to play with in post. If you are stacking the images to reduce noise you won't have to worry about bumping the ISO to high.
