Behind The Lens

Location

It was taken in Mazatlan Sinaloa on a beach called the island of the stone that is in a car tour of 1 hour after you take a small boat called a panga to cross the canal where ships enter once you walk crossing for about 40 minutes through the pla until we reach this magnificent place where we get to surf with a beautiful sunrise from land in the pacific of mexico

Time

the photo was taken from inside the sea as I climbed to take the waves while my amiho descended the perfect right wave at 7:15 a.m.

Lighting

the light is totally natural with the sun in the back which helps is that it is very early and the morning is cloudy that helped the photo and shot with an iso of 100 and shooting in burst

Equipment

on this morning the photo was taken with a gopro 5 session without any accessory or lens

Inspiration

I insipire for this picture when I merge the 2 things that I like the bodyboard and the photography and I wake up when I realized how many things I have lost portraying so amazing that they pass while you share with the nature and the greatness of the sea its energy its strength and is how I felt that I should share and record those moments that are magical to me

Editing

maybe a little basic touch-up with contrasts brightness saturation to achieve highlight and contrast the photo to give a little more depth and aesthetics to my liking

In my camera bag

I do not have much but I take advantage of what I have today I capture most things with my cell phone and my gopro 6 black still can not get a professional or semi camera but I hope to be able to take more detail in my pictures

Feedback

everything is in the vicion and framing that I want to recommend always be prepared the most amazing things to pass in 1 second and are the most beautiful when we capture them in my way of thinking the real nature reflected in a photograph and always visualize the composition that you would like to have the funds the lights the obejoto and know what we want to capture and so they will create a natural instinctive reflex and not let those little great things go by
