Golden Hour

There are those special times that everything works out. The location is ace, the exact angle, the weather gods play ball. It was one of those times. An hour or so just before sunset, the rays hit the rock and I was only too happy to record that moment. I was so engrossed in shooting that I was oblivious to a tourist hanging behind me, copying every composition with his mobile phone.

 

Then he asked me: “how do you get the water to be so smooth”? I decided against trying to explain the use of filters, so I just said “magic”. He nodded his head in appreciation and said, “you are a professional”. I didn’t want to spoil the illusion, so I just smiled back.

 

Nikon D750, f/10, 24-120mm f/4 @30mm, 5 seconds, ISO 100.
