Sunrise at the Lake Wörthersee
Behind The Photo Contest - Edition #7
https://steemit.com/.../behind-the-photo-contest-edition-7

Yesterday I posted the photos of the sunrise at Lake Wörthersee, and today I would like to show where and how the main picture was taken.

Gestern habe ich die Fotos vom Sonnenaufgang am Wörthersee gepostet, und heute möchte ich gerne zeigen, wo und wie das Hauptbild entstanden ist.

The app The Photographer's Ephemeris showed me exactly where and when the sun would rise and I knew where I had to go, namely on the north side of the lake to one of the few places with free lake access and parking: My location.

Die App The Photographer's Ephemeris hat mir genau gezeigt, wo und wann die Sonne aufgehen wird und ich wusste, wohin ich fahren musste, nämlich auf die Nordseite des Sees zu einer der wenigen Stellen mit freiem Seezugang und Parkplatz: Mein Standort.

I didn't check what the weather would be like, but after it was pretty nice the days before, I hoped that I would be lucky, which was the case.

Wie das Wetter wird, habe ich nicht nachgesehen, aber nachdem es die Tage zuvor auch recht schön gewesen ist, hoffte ich darauf, dass ich Glück habe, was dann auch der Fall gewesen ist.

At this place there is also a nice rest area with wooden benches and tables, where you always can see some people during the daytime, but so early in the morning I had it to myself.

I could put the tripod on the robust table and I have had my breakfast coffee with me in a thermos from home.

An dieser Stelle ist auch ein netter Rastplatz mit Holzbänken und Tischen, welcher tagsüber immer gut besucht ist, aber so früh am Morgen hatte ich ihn für mich allein.

Das Stativ konnte ich auf den stabilen Tisch stellen und meinen Frühstückskaffee habe ich mir in einer Thermosflasche mitgenommen.

Because it was still quite dark, I took three photos for exposure bracketing, taking one over- and one underexposed and a normal exposure. But in the end I only used the normal and the overexposed photo.

I used the EF 16-35mm 1: 4L IS USM wide-angle lens on my Canon EOS R.

I usually photograph landscapes with ISO 100 and aperture priority mode (AV mode on Canon). I took these photos at aperture f/11 and the camera calculated 10 seconds for the overexposed image and 5 seconds for the normally exposed image.

The info in my post yesterday of 2.5 seconds is unfortunately wrong, because I also imported the underexposed image into Photoshop and Photoshop then saved this time to the image information.

The Haida M10 filter system with CPL filter, medium soft gradient 0.9 / 3 stop filter and ND 0.9 / 3 stop filter was also used to make the water a little smoother.

Weil es noch recht dunkel gewesen ist, habe ich drei Fotos für eine Belichtungsreihe gemacht, wobei ich zur normalen Belichtung jeweils ein Bild über- und eines unterbelichtet aufgenommen habe. Am Ende habe ich dann aber nur das normal- und das überbelichtete Foto verwendet.

Verwendet habe ich an meiner Canon EOS R das EF 16-35mm 1:4L IS USM Weitwinkelobjektiv.

Ich fotografiere Landschaften eigentlich meistens mit ISO 100 und Zeitautomatik (AV Modus bei Canon). Diese Fotos habe ich mit Blende f/11 geschossen und die Kamera hat für das überbelichtete Bild 10 Sekunden und für das normal belichtete Bild 5 Sekunden Belichtungszeit berechnet.

Die Angabe in meinem gestrigen Post von 2.5 Sekunden ist leider falsch, weil ich auch das unterbelichtete Bild in Photoshop importiert habe und Photoshop dann diese Zeit in die Bildinfos gespeichert hat.

Im Einsatz war auch das Haida M10 Filtersystem mit CPL Filter, Medium Soft Gradient 0.9 / 3 Stops Filter und ND 0.9 / 3 Stops Filter, um das Wasser etwas sanfter zu machen.

After a few quick settings in Lightroom which I always do, such as lens correction and sharpness, I opened the photos in Photoshop as a layers, but then I didn't use the underexposed image.

Nach ein paar schnellen Einstellungen in Lightroom, die ich immer mache, wie zum Beispiel Objektivkorrektur und Schärfe, habe ich die Fotos in Photoshop als Ebenen geöffnet, wobei ich das unterbelichtete Bild dann nicht verwendet habe.

Using a layer mask (vector mask), I faded in the reed area and the opposite bank of the lake, which was also very dark, from the lighter lower layer into the normally exposed image layer, added a few of my standard adjustment layers for slightly more intense colors, and the image was ready.

Well, almost ready, because there was a dark branch and a blurred piece of reed which bothered me and which I had to stamp out. You still can see these in the overexposed image.

Mittels Layermaske (Vektormaske) habe ich den Bereich des Schilfs und auch das gegenüberliegende Ufer, das ebenfalls sehr dunkel gewesen ist, vom helleren unteren Layer in das darüber liegende normal belichtete Bild eingeblendet, ein paar meiner standardmäßigen Einstellungsebenen für etwas intensivere Farben darüber gelegt und war fertig war das Bild

Naja, fast fertig, denn von unten haben noch ein dunkler Ast und ein verschwommenes Stück Schilf ins Bild geragt, die mich gestört haben und die ich noch wegstempeln musste. Diese kann man am überbelichteten Bild noch erkennen.


Original post: Is it a Sunrise or a Sunset?

Well, that was more difficult for me than I would have thought, because taking and editing the photo is easier for me than describing the work, and I hope that everything was somehow understandable.

If there are any questions, I will try to answer all comments.

So, das war doch schwieriger für mich als ich gedacht hätte, denn das Foto zu machen und zu bearbeiten ist leichter für mich, als die Arbeit zu beschreiben, und ich hoffe, dass alles so einigermaßen verständlich gewesen ist.

Falls Fragen bestehen, ich werde versuchen, alle Kommentare zu beantworten.

Information

All photos were shot with the Canon EOS R and one of these lenses: Canon RF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM, Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS II USM, Canon EF 16-35mm 1:4L IS USM, SIGMA 105mm 1:2,8 DG MACRO HSM, SIGMA 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG OS HSM C.

I leave all EXIF and IPTC information stored in the pictures.

Of course in that case I have made screenshots on my computer and used my smartphone to take a photo of my camera ;)

If you like my photos I would appreciate an upvote, nice comment or a resteem 😊 ... and maybe you would like to follow me, so that you never miss a post from me.

Thank you for visiting my blog,
have a nice evening and a great week ahead,

Thank you very much @cezary-io 🙂
I'm no teacher and it's hard for me to explain what I'm doing, because especially in Photoshop I'm always testing. So I hope the others will find my post as informative as you do.
Thanks a lot for the !BEER and the !COFFEEA 🙂

OK, the blockchain seems to work again, but I think I'll shut my computer off for today and see tomorrow if it still works.
For the last couple of hours I have tried to log in and make a post, but today will be the first day since the last hardfork without a post from me.

I hope your day is fine JJ. Mine was busy but until the blockchain stopped working it was pretty nice.

In the !DERANGED !shop of the !MARLIANS you can buy cheapest !BEER and !COFFEEA and some other things you don't want to know what it is 😉

Good morning once more, JJ 😉
most is working again, but I still cannot log into SteemPeak.
So I'll not do much today and maybe I'll just do my work at the office ;)

Wish you a great day 🙂

Yes, it is, and today I will be even stay longer here in the office, because it is raining outside anyway, and I'm too confused. The Sunny problem would have been bad enough, but that and the hopefully small private problems are too much for me at the moment.

A !BEER has to be cold and a !COFFEEA has to be hot to taste good and not !DERANGED 😉

Guten Morgen Peter,

zuerst wieder mal vielen lieben Dank 🙂

ich habe natürlich auch schon verschiedene Sachen wie auch Gimp ausprobiert.
Photoshop ist aber doch das Original und so gut die "Nachbauten" auch sind, ich komme mit dem Original einfach besser zurecht.

Angefangen habe ich damals mit Fireworks 1.0 und bin jetzt bei der Creative Cloud für Fotografen. Ich mag solche Software Abos zwar nicht, aber in diesem Fall zahle ich lieber jährlich einen kleinen Betrag als tausende Euro auf einmal ;)
Und: Ja, das ist es mir wert :)

Liebe Grüße 🙂

Moin Johann,

jedem wie er es beraucht und mag.

Ich sag mir immer wieder warum soll ich etwas bezahlen wenn ich es auch kostenlos bekomme.

So nutze ich Linux und da gibt es Gimp. Ja früher habe ich ohne Fireworks nichts machen können. Es war mein Programm. Habe immer wieder zu gesehen, das ich eine gekrackte Version bekam. Das Geld dafür hatte ich niemals übrig.

Irgendwo müsste ich auch noch eine komplette funktionierende Photoshop Version auf der Platte haben :)

Von den Cloud Service halte ich Abstand. Warum soll ich denen meine Daten freiwillig liefern?

Dir einen schönen Tag.

Liebe Grüße
Peter

Hallo Peter,

in die Adobe Cloud speichere ich auch nichts - die paar Gigabyte, die bei meinem Abo dabei sind, wären bald voll ;)
Ich habe auch meine Fotos, die zum Verkauf stehen bei Adobe, also sollte ich denen schon auch vertrauen ;)

Dafür habe ich eine externe Festplatte.

Liebe Grüße 🙂

Sicherlich, wenn Du über die verkaufst.

Für mich gehört Adobe wie auch Microsoft zur falschen Seite. :)

Seit die ihre System nur noch Cloud basiert ausliefern, sind sie eh für mich gestorben.

Ich nutze zwar auch Clouds. Dropbox und Google, aber wirklich nur für das Nötigste, ansonsten gilt für mich, das was ich zu Hause habe, gehört nur mir.

Liebe Grüße
Peter
