Location
This photo was taken at Shelly Beach on the Central Coast of NSW, Australia. It's a beautiful long beach which is very popular with Surfers.Time
I took this at that magical time of day, sunrise. Having a very busy life, my morning walk with my dog would set me up for the day. It helped remind me that each new day offers new opportunities.Lighting
ISO. When shooting a sunrise or sunset, you'll sunrise photography can be tricky. You want to use a low to mid-range ISO setting and an aperture of 2.2 in this instance.Equipment
I used my Nikon DSLR with a UV filter. I also used my tripod.Inspiration
Sunrise has a magical golden light. This particular one has a peachy overtone which was very soft and appealing.Editing
Not at all! I like to capture what is there at the time, not play with Mother Nature. She's hard to beat.In my camera bag
Normally I'd just carry my phone, but sometimes I'm lucky enough to have my Nikon with me and tripod.Feedback
Be prepared to wait for the right time. Also to get quite sandy and occasionally end up with wet feet. Oh and you need to get up early!
