Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken from, the sailboat were crewed for, the dock in Hao, Tuamotu Archipelago in French Polynesia.

Time

The photo was taken as the sunset around 18:00.

Lighting

The photo has not been filtered at all, it is exactly as I shot it. The sunsets here are magical and clear.

Equipment

I took this photo with iPhone 6 Aperture: f/2.2 Exposure: 1/898 Focal length: 83/20 ISO: 32 Hand held with no flash used.

Inspiration

Watching the sun setting while the local dancers practiced for Polynesian competition, beautiful people moving to song while the sun was closing another day. The peaceful water in the lagoon.

Editing

I did not do any processing of the photos usually use a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS but do take additional shots with my iPhone.

In my camera bag

My fall back is the Canon EOS Digital Rebel with telephoto and landscape lens.

Feedback

The sunsets in the South Pacific are remarkable always changing with cloud formations or clear skies
