Behind The Lens

Location

The photo was taken on the seafront of Margate. Margate being the town made famous for it's golden mile, notable for it's paintings by JMW Turner featuring in only fools and horses and the immortal song by ChasN Dave

Time

This was taking on an early summer evening as the sun set and the evening cloud appeared

Lighting

The lighting was as natural as you could get. Nothing else would be needed that could improve the photo to keep it looking natural.

Equipment

Nothing but a Huawei P30 camera phone captured this beautiful image.

Inspiration

I enjoy taking photos of the sunsetting and it would have been a tragedy not to capture this image as a photo. The beauty of these kinds of photos is that you won't see this again.

Editing

No, I left it as it is. There didnt seem to be anything to edit or change without taking away from the photo.

In my camera bag

I normally just have my camera phone with me. Sometimes the best photos can happen by chance in the moment.

Feedback

Always be prepared even if it's with a camera phone. You never know what you may capture
