Behind The Lens

Location

Took this picture over the Pacific Ocean at the western Oregon coastal area at the historic Cape Disappointment.

Time

Taken late afternoon.

Lighting

The lighting was was subdued against the sky-scape at sunset. Sky was partially dramatic but full of dark clouds. I had to replace it with one of my my own collection of Florida sunsets

Equipment

Fuji 55-200 T2 body hand held

Inspiration

This location is Historic due to the fact that the Lewis and Clark expedition was concluded here.

Editing

Foreground shadows were brought up in LR Sky replacement was done in Luminar-4

In my camera bag

I use my Fuji T2 for all travel photography with 55-200 for long shots and 23mm for wide angle shots.

Feedback

Travel light with your equipment and be patient to get the best lighting for the capture. Do not hesitate to be aggressive with post processing as I have done with this image using my own collection of a similar skyscape as I remember seeing on location.
