Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken above English Town on the Caribbean island of Antigua. Our guide pointed out the 'alligator' in the foreground so we all took a picture. The quality of the photo had a lot to do with the beautiful colours present everywhere in Caribbean waters combined with the lush Island flora. A sprinkling of sailing ships was the icing on the cake.

Time

This photo was taken about mid-day. Just after noon.

Lighting

The lighting for the type of shot must have been perfect. I took this prior to taking a photography course and finding out that mid day light is harsh! But this worked. I also used a super vivid setting as it accentuated the blues and greens in the photo.

Equipment

Canon SX60HS Powershot

Inspiration

The 'alligator' in the photo.

Editing

No post processing required.

In my camera bag

Camera, extra batteries and a lens pen.

Feedback

Make sure the light is behind you. Take lots of photos from different angles.
