Location
This photo was taken while on vacation in Aruba at the famed Eagle Beach where the Divi Trees are.Time
It was taken at sunset. I had to take a cab to get to the beach in time for sunset. I had been out earlier in the day so I knew where I wanted to be.Lighting
Sunsets at Eagle Beach are always good! I wanted to be out there for golden hour so I could ensure I got ample time to get good light.Equipment
I used a Sony A77 with a Sigma 18-250mm and a Manfrotto tripod with a ball head. I also used a Singh Ray Daryl Benson ND3 -RFV GRAD along with a Singh Ray Galen Rowell ND2G-SSInspiration
I just thought these trees were so beautiful and that an ocean sunset would really set them up.Editing
Just used light room only. It was a single exposure and did global and local adjustments for sky water, trees and beach.In my camera bag
I had a Sony A77 as well as a Song A7RIII. Lens consist of a Sony G 24-105mm, Sony G 70-300, Sigma 18-250mm - A mount and a Sigma 10-20mm - A mountFeedback
Take your time, get set up and be patient. Watch the light and take lots of shots. The light is always changing and you don't want to miss a shot with the perfect lighting.
