I took this photo with my drone during the COVID lockdowns, and it’s still one of my absolute favourites.
Shot these around Amsterdam over the past few years, chasing the evenings that actually looked promising. All on a Sony a7 III, with a few different lenses depending on the scene:
• Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8, my walk around for most of these
• Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 for the wide canal shots
• Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 for the compressed tower and skyline frames
• Sony 85mm f/1.8 for the tighter ones with a softer background
Most were taken in the 20 to 40 minutes around sunset, handheld, usually f/8 to f/11 for the wide scenes and wide open on the 85. Happy to share exact settings on any specific frame.
Still can't decide which is my favorite. Curious which one you'd pick.
