Here we are in Goro, a municipality in the province of Ferrara in the Italian region Emilia-Romagna, located about 80 kilometers northeast of Bologna and about 50 kilometers east of Ferrara, near the mouth of the Po River.
The economy of Goro is mainly based on fishing and in particular on that of clams, in fact Goro is among the first countries in Europe for the export of clams, just think that about 95% of the population works in this sector.
In this image, a typical boat for clam fishing returning after a morning of work at sea.

Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo near a small port town in northern Italy, Goro. Its economy is almost exclusively linked to fishing.

Time

It was early in the morning, I love to go to the beach early in the morning, often, especially during the winter the sunrises give great impact images.

Lighting

This is a beach near my holiday home, this allows me to visit it often, the secret of good light is not to go out and photograph only when the weather is good, but also, for example, just before or after a storm.

Equipment

This was taken with my main camera, a Canon EOS 5DSr with one of my favorite lenses, Canon's 70-200 2.8L IS II.

Inspiration

Absolutely the light, the reflection of the sky on the water was truly spectacular.

Editing

Yes of course, I always do post-production on my shots. In this case I limited myself to adjusting the color temperature and the contrast using the curves.

In my camera bag

Well, it depends on many things, such as what places I visit and consequently what landscapes I expect to see, for example if I go to the beach I bring 16-35, if I go into the woods I prefer 24-70. One thing is certain, a solid tripod and the 70-200 can never be missing.

Feedback

I partially answered before, my advice is to go out as much as possible, experience different seasons, weather conditions, parts of the day. The location is not important, but the light. For example, for years when I have no travel or joint excursions planned, I always go to the same local forest or beach, every time I find some new ideas and I think this is very productive, it stimulates us to open our minds, broaden our vision. !
