Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo at the port of Burgas, Bulgaria. That was Christmas sunset and I was impressed by the colorful spectacle.

Time

It was around 16:30 sunset time on the 25th of December.

Lighting

The idea of this photo was to reflect these beautiful colors and clouds of long exposure in the calm sea.

Equipment

This was shot on Nikon D850 with 16-35 f/4 lens, I used a tripod and ND filter, to achieve this result of long exposure.

Inspiration

I love sunsets and what impressed me that day was the amazing colors in the sky, which really make a colorful show. I stretched the tripod carefully I turned in the front of the lens the ND filler and I adjusted all the settings of the camera to achieve this end result.

Editing

After shooting this magnificent sunset, I couldn't wait to go home and start processing the RAW files. I usually use Lightroom and Photoshop to process my photos.

In my camera bag

I care in my Lowepro bag usually my favorite Nikon D850 with Nikon AF-S Nikkor 16-35mm f/4G ED VR, Nikon AF-P 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 E ED VR, Nikon AF-S Nikkor 85mm f/1.8G, Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G, Tamron SP 70-200mm f/2.8 Di VC USD G2, tripod, few ND filters, UV filters, CPL filters, one flash, batteries, remote shutter release, and memory cards.

Feedback

For those who decide to capture a beautiful sunset should be prepared in advance, the camera batteries should be well charged, always wear a tripod and ND filters just in case. Be in the desired location in advance so that you can select the most appropriate location to capture the desired frame. Then enjoy the moment!
