Behind The Lens

Location

This iconic building in Shanghai, China is call Sky SOHO and it is designed by world-renowned Pritzker Prize winning architect Zaha Hadid.

Time

This was taken on my second visit to the location thus I know exactly where I wanted to setup my camera and waited until the sun had set around 6:45 pm to capture this shot.

Lighting

There are street lighting all around the building complex and the building itself. I wanted to have a very still reflection of the building on the reflection pool thus this image was taken on a 8s long exposure shot.

Equipment

This was captured on a tripod with Sony A7R2 and 24-105mm F4 lens

Inspiration

This futuristic building looks like a space ship ready to take-off.

Editing

I processed the raw image in Lightroom

In my camera bag

I sold the 24-105mm F/4 lens so now I usually have my 16-35m F/4 lens on my Sony A7R2. Apart from that I have a small lightweight tripod, ND filters, polarizing filters and 2 spare batteries with me.

Feedback

Make sure you have a sturdy tripod and a ultra wide angle lens such as a 16mm works very well on this type of shot
