Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at the Vaal River in South Africa. It was the type of photo ive always wanted to take at the river and i finally captured a beautiful moment.

Time

It was almost 7pm so the sun setting which created a beautiful African sunset with a nice quite rippled river.

Lighting

The broken glare on the water with the sun lighting up the clouds gives the picture a warm feeling.

Equipment

I wont lie it was a plain old photo with a Huawei P10 Lite.

Inspiration

Well myself and a few friends usually go to the river and have always wanted to take a beautiful photo of the sunset , to show that going to the river is more that just for fishing and riding boats but rather that it makes you feel welcome , away from home and stress free.

Editing

No, we just had to make sure we kept an eye on the time to make sure we could take sunset photos.

In my camera bag

Usually when i go away i have a canon eos 700d

Feedback

If you feel a moment try capture it in the way you feel would be right. Dont over think your photo only professionals can overthink properly. Dont stress if you dont get the photo you want , just keep trying a different approach it will finally come out the way you want or even a way even you couldn't imagine.
