Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken from 10km of the object "Palacio Canto del Pico" in Torrelodones - Madrid - Spain

Time

At 05:30 a.m. I woke up at 04:30 a.m. because the shot was so far from my house and I wanted to go with time to reconigse the place

Lighting

This is a very difficult shot because of the 10km distance from the object and I couldn´t light it with anything but the moon´s light. The time difference between the full moonset and the sunrise difficulted focusing the moon and the Palacio Canto del Pico

Equipment

This was shot with an Olympus EM1-Mark II + Leica (Panasonic) 100-400mm. Manfroto tripod and trigger

Inspiration

Since some years ago I saw pictures from some photographer with the full moon and I wanted to give it a try. This is why every month I looked for this kind of pictures, first planning them with a program in the computer and after in the location with the movil

Editing

Yes, first with Lightroom and after with Photoshop

In my camera bag

My EM1-Mark II with Zuiko 12-100mm. Also and wide angle 9-18mm and when I go to take photos of the moon the Panasonic 100-400mm. My tripod and a trigger. 2 batteries and some filters (polarizing, ND). Also a frontal light and some warm torch

Feedback

First you have to plan the photo, you have always to go to the location before taking the shot for recognising the place. The day of the shot you have to go with time to take the shot, if it is a difficult shot, never go alone.
