Location
This was taken on the north east coast of Brazil in a small village called Tibau do Sul, in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. The Photo I always enjoy shooting piers, but with this one I wanted to try a different composition, using the steps as leading lines to the pier. A wide angle lens made it possible for me to frame the steps, the lake and the sky. I measured the exposure from the wood of the steps, and used a 2 stop graduated neutral density filter to bring the sky into the exposure range of the camera and stop the highlights from clipping there. I wanted to use a long exposure, so I used a 9 stop neutral density filter, manually adding the 9 stops to the shutter speed. For more information in using filters, have a look at these articles [link] [link] Metadata Taken on Lago Malambar, Tibau do Sul, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil.

I am one that can truely appreciate such talent. Almost all is perfect. Great exposure, composition, light, forground, midground, sky. Its all there. My fav shot of yours besides 'The bear'
The only improvement possible of a significant measurement would be more orange in the sky. The steps seem to have an orange tint, and I think the sky could do with some as well
This is talent I, at the minute dream of, and hope to achieve

Tasted the snake's poison
Broken every bone
Felt a thousand gunshot wounds
But there's nothing that whiskey can't cure
Yes! Let's keep it up!
