Editing an oceanscape in Lightroom

In this video I will show you how to edit a beautiful oceanscape. I shot this during sunrise this morning and the weather was amazing. Before the sun came up all the colors were super pastel and it was really nice being out there. The way I shot this photo I was on my tripod and I was about 2 feet from the sand and used a really wide angle lens. All the details in the video.

Fishing at the Pier

Living on the water is awesome for me. There is always something going on, from people surfing to fishing and everything in-between.

This is the South Pointe Fishing Pier in Miami Beach Florida. I was actually standing on the pier and when I looked down I was pleasantly surprised at what I saw. This guy kept throwing his fishing net and for a photographer thats eye candy.

I kept shooting with my focus point on him and as soon as he threw the net I would take 2-3 shots.

Here are my settings: Shutter speed 160 f5.6 ISO 100

Miami Beach 24 St Lifeguard Tower

Here is one of the coolest lifeguard towers in Miami Beach. This one is rather new but its a bit hard to shoot. There is not a lot of space between you and the tower, and the tower and the ocean you you really have to get creative to shoot it. Its located on 24st and super easy to find.

Its so nice being here in the morning when there is nobody around. The ocean breeze and the calm waives always make a perfect start of the day. I teach sunrise workshops if you are ever in Miami check out my schedule in this link.

Here are my camera settings:
104 seconds f14 ISO 100 Lens 24-85mm

Ocean Dr from the Sky

Ocean Drive is one of the most iconic places in Miami. I wanted to capture it like I have never seen it before. There are so many photos of this iconic street but I have never seen any close-ups from the air.

This is where my drone came into play, I wanted to get some different perspectives but at the same time capture the famous street in a way it could be recognized for what it is, Ocean Dr.

Miami Beach Fishing

Its not every morning I wake up and find fisher man out on the beach. Its usually surfers, and beautiful girls doing yoga, but today there was a couple fisher man. The ocean was so calm and quiet, and the fish were biting. Once 6:45 hit, the colors just started getting crazy. Not a bad way to start the week. We will see what tomorrows sunrise has in store for us…
