Location
This image is from the most Westerly point on the Isle of Skye called Neist Point Lighthouse near the township of Glendale, Scotland.Time
This image was taken just before sunset in mid March 2020 (The day before lockdown)Lighting
The sky can never be satisfactory for a photographer, we had no cloud at all, so we had to make the best of what was available. A Grad filter was used just to take the edge off the sky and add that little something extra.Equipment
Canon 5D SR with a Canon EF 24-70 F2.8 Mk2, Lee Grad filter. Manfrotto Tripod.Inspiration
My colleague and I spent the weekend on the Isle of Skye taking in a few shots.Editing
Just a little Lightroom work involved, nothing too heavy.In my camera bag
Additional to the above, I will have a short zoom and a 70-300mm longer zoom, all Canon of course. Polarising filter, a few grad filters, big stopper, little stopper, Speedlite flash, torch, gloves, notepad, pen, batteries, Pollo mints, small mat to sit or kneel on.Feedback
As is the case in all such photography, it's just a case of being there. A little homework always helps as well.
