Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken from Bournemouth Pier Dorest in the UK.

Time

A cold and fresh Winters afternoon.

Lighting

The daylight condition were low light and grey, a fab day for sea and surf watching.

Equipment

I used the what ever was available to stabilise my camera when needed

Inspiration

When I took this photo I remember feeling whilst watching the surfers and the sea, the small waves pattern and formations, the surf on the beach being symbolic of the UK Lockdown restrictions and guidelines which reduced friends and families into small bubbles, with our world and lives waiting on the horizon......I was attempting to capture a sense of human patience, isolation, loneliness, but the beauty of the oceans calmness and stillness, whilst waiting for the waves to return.

Editing

Yes Photo taken in raw file, some processed with some light, contrast, highlights and shadows, whites and blacks. Brought down a touch of the saturation and light touch on dehaze
