Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken between Zumaia and Getaria, in a rock area. The location has already been visited more times since it's 30 minutes from my house.

Time

For this shot was decisive, weather planning and heights of the clouds, once I knew that, I only had to be before blue hour around 7:00, this photo was taken in February so I didn't have to get up in the day.

Lighting

Well, I don't use auxiliary lights, so don't light anything up at the scene. Only I use physical filters in front of the optics to balance the lights from the sky with the floor or the foreground.

Equipment

For this photo, use a Canon 5DsR with Really Right Stuff L-plate and an optics Canon 16-35 F2.8 L III Lucroit brand filters 165mm in this case a 2-step Ndg and a 3-D Ndg (Ndg= degraded neutral density filter) A tripod of the Leophoto Mark Model in carbon LS 365C and a Really Right Stuff rotule BH-30 BALL HEAD

Inspiration

I consider myself a photographer to feel the moment, I don't go with an idea set in the photo zones, I think that feeling or living of the moment is what inspires me, will always depend on the time and place. For this time while I was taking out some that another frame I saw the shape of the rocks, the sky so brutal, the sea that was whipping hard and the bottom of the Getarian Mouse filling the frame, only the wave that gave that spark to the photo was missing.

Editing

I did a basic revealed in ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) and Photoshop wears lights and shadow masks to give the image more depth as all my photographs are taken in neutral and Raw.

In my camera bag

It all depends on where I'm going, if I go to the coast and it touches down a lot or go down the hard-access places I usually carry a body and one or two optics and if I go to the mountain or forests because I'm taking more optics since you never know you're going to find yourself. I usually wear one of my cameras Canon 5DSR or the new Eos R5 Canon If I go to coast usually, the Canon 16-35 F2.8 L III and Sigma 14mm F1.8 ART, provided it is water-intensive. If I go to the woods or mountains, for besides a camera and 16-35 doesn't fail the Canon 24-70 f2.8 L and Canon 70-200 f2.8 L II is I take the tripod and filters both squares and circulars (usually for forest a polarizer).

Feedback

Especially planning, knowing at all times where you go, what kind of tide you have, and what you can find, if you're going to do a dawn, I usually investigate the area a few days before going or look at Google maps (or any other) that accesses has, since I usually go before you can see something, with a front flashlight for example. Sunset is easier since you come in light and in the night case, because I try to go before nightfall to see the accesses. For example, the photo I'm asked about is simple but at a risk, I usually wait to see the waves coming up about 5-10 minutes because in that particular area, the waves hit hard, eating a lot of water and coming from the left side with little visibility, you have to have those factors taken into account, if you go to the coast, see how they break the waves, where you unburst the water and the strength of it. Safe first!!!
