Description

Location : Banua Patra Beach, Balikpapan, East Borneo, Indonesia

Gears : EOS 350D, Tamron 17-50 F/2.8, Rusty Cheap Velbon Tripod, Visico CPL, Hitech 0.9 Gradual ND

Take :
to reach this angle i was plunged into the water about thigh level, i dare took all the risk because i saw the waves wasn't big. my friends behind have warned me to take care of the gears from sea water splash, they are so kind and really care.. :) one of them here is :iconbhawank: :D
i used Av (aperture Priority) program and set to evaluative for metering reading on f/16 and adjust the exposure compensation to -1/3 stop because the light was still to strong. after i got the speed reading, i switched the program to Manual mode and set at F/16 2 sec to avoid the change of exposure reading. Manual Focusing, turned the polarizer to its best position i want then apply the Gradual ND with handheld ( poorly i got no holder :( ) .. pressed the shutter with timer and mirror lockup enabled to avoid microshake..

post proc :
adobe camera raw, decrease the exposure a bit. daylight WB.
PSCS2 ... color balance, level, auto contrast, use my "gradual PS" trick to darken the sky a bit more :D
and finally crop and resize the image for upload.
