All natural lighting.Equipment
Nikon Z7 NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S at 14mm f/22.0 1/7s ISO 64 RRS TripodInspiration
I had arrived at the site before daylight to shot the blue hour and sunrise. There are usually some clouds in the morning that Give great color and reflections in the ocean when using a slow shutter speed. This morning there were no clouds so I waited for the sunrise, when the sun came over the horizon i noticed the leading lines created by the sand. This is when the plan changed to shooting the sunrise under the pier.Editing
The only post processing was the normal processing for a raw file.In my camera bag

When shooting landscapes, don't give up on the shoot when what you were looking for did not happen.
