Power Station, Sabon, July 2018

August 14, 2018 in photographs

Camera and Lens: Sony a6500 + 16-70mm f/4 Carl Zeiss
Settings: ISO 320, 17mm, f/8, 64 seconds

A few weeks ago, during a trip to A Coruña, I visited the beach of Sabon where I wanted to create an image to show the contrast between the beach and the chimney of the power station.

This place is familiar to me. Years ago, I used to work just a few hundred feet from there, and some times during lunch time I'd go to that beach to take a walk.

The idea behind this image was to make believe the viewer that they are looking at yet another image of the ocean breaking against the rocks, and realize a little bit later about the "small" detail on the top right of the frame: a chimney from a power plant.
