Behind the mountains there is a road and I took this at night so the lamps were won, that's why there is so much light coming out of them 😉

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in a very unique coast of Portugal, in Praia da Formosa, Torres Vedras, Portugal.

Time

This was taken on August 27, 2007 around midnight

Lighting

I wanted this image to stand out so I came to this place several days until I got the weather and the light I wanted, because I wanted this place to be filled with clouds, although it was at night, they can be challenging mainly because it's a long exposure.

Equipment

This was shot in a Canon 400D, with a, 17-85 mm f74-5.6 IS USM lens and a MTL 9251B Giottos Tripod.

Inspiration

This part of the Portuguese Coast is quite unique and it was what inspired me to take this photo, I wanted to show and make you feel what I feel when I'm there.

Editing

I did some changes in levels and contrast and exposure.

In my camera bag

My camera bag now has a Canon EOS 30D, a Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM, a Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM, a Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM and a MTL 9251B Giottos Tripod.

Feedback

Travel and search for unique coastlines and study the scenery for quite some time to find the ideal conditions for your photos.
