Location
I took this photo on the coast of Asturias (Spain)Time
It was done during the sunset. This photo had been scheduled for quite some time, I had calculated the time when the sun would be at that point in the frame, in addition to the time when the tide would allow me to access that point.Lighting
It is made inside a cave without artificial lighting, it is quite difficult to compensate the difference of light between the inside of the cave and the outside, to be able to make this photograph in the right way I had to make several shots with different exposure times and then merge them through processing.Equipment
In particular to make that photo I used a DSLR camera with a wide-angle lens and a tripod that allowed me to make long exposures without movement.Inspiration
I have always liked the photographs of caves, this cave had the attraction of the sea and the huge cliff that surrounds itEditing
Yes, I had to do a exposure blending to compensate the difference of lights between the inside of the cave and the outsideIn my camera bag
Currently for my landscape photos I usually use a Canon FF camera, accompanied by IRIX 15mm f2'4 wide-angle lens, HAIDA filter holder and HAIDA filters (Neutral Density, Graduated Neutral Density, Polarizer and light pollution reducer)Feedback
My advice is to prepare the photo very well in advance, if we have studied the conditions before ... The probability that it goes wrong will be less. I also recommend making all the photographs that we can of more amount of light at less amount of light to later be able to blend them more easily.
