Location
This photo was taken on the Malibu Pier on a trip to Los Angeles.Time
This was taken at around 1:30. We had just gotten lunch.Lighting
The lighting was pretty harsh. That's what adds the shadow on the left side of his head.Equipment
This was shot on a Canon 6D mkii and a 50mm f 1.8.Inspiration
Wes Anderson. He's my favorite director and I composed it like him. I also edited the tones to match the vibe of his movies.Editing
I changed the tones in the sky to contrast the tones in the ocean. I also aligned the edge of the binoculars with the horizon to help with the symmetry.In my camera bag
My body, Canon 6D mkii, my favorite lenses are the 50mm 1.4 and the 24-70 2.8. I'm a bare-bones kind of guy to that's really it.Feedback
Watch Wes Anderson. Focus on composition in the moment. Don't try to fix everything in post.
