On Thursday (1/19) I headed over to Emerald Isle to visit with my friend and fellow photographer Brad Styron. We had some business to discuss, but more importantly, there were photos to take! We left his studio and hopped in his FJ and a minute or two later were driving down the beach. I’ve never driven over-sand, although I’ve always wanted to get the permits for my Jeep, and it was way cool! A little ways down the beach, we came to a spot where the beach erosion created ‘cliffs’ that were close to six feet high in places. This is where we set up to shoot.
In this image you can see the set up. Brad’s FJ is parked above the surf on the sand. You can see his second camera body set up in the foreground. He filmed video the entire time and came away with an amazing time-lapse video of the sunset! You can see Brad himself is shooting up against the cliff beyond the camera.
You will no doubt be seeing several more images from this sunset (one of THE BEST sunsets I’ve ever shot) in the coming days and weeks!
The Shot: Nikon D90, Rokinon 8mm fisheye lens. 2 exposures, manually blended in Photoshop.
