Behind The Lens

Location

This is taken on the south coast of Mauritius where there are rocks and cliffs at the sea and always there are waves especially in stormy conditions

Time

If I remember it was in the afternoon but it was a stormy day so no interference from the sun

Lighting

I did not have to worry about the effect of sunshine in the image as it was a stormy day. Maybe a good way to use the sun and daylight is to use clouds as a screen against direct sun

Equipment

Canon 6d with 80/200 lens. No particular setting or dialed settings just really a point and click image if

Inspiration

I am surrounded by nature and the sea living on a tropical island and when there is, stormy weather the sea, is, always an exciting subject.

Editing

No I always leave the photos as far as possible in how I took them the only exception is to create monochrome images from color

In my camera bag

If I have my big bag it will be packed with a Canon eos 1d, 6d and 7d mk2 with a variety of Canon lenses. It might be a museum piece now but the Canon 1d still takes a good picture

Feedback

Be patient like a surfer the good waves will come to you just keep taking the shots and get the surprise when a good wave comes in
