I shoot this photo during my first field test of NiSi 15mm F4 ASPH lens. Thinking of the perfect location I chose the wonderful cliffs around the iconic old town Tellaro, near La Spezia, Italy. Everything was planned down to the last detail, especially the weather forecast. The sea was very rough and the frontal sunlight was very strong, thus I decided to combine two GND filters, the 0.6 and 0.9 soft ND grads, which allow me to achieve the right movement of the waves and control the strong frontal sunlight. Then I waited for the right moment, and when the sun was where I expected, I set the aperture to F13. I used manual focus to get the best sharpness and the filters allowed me to have the job done, which is a colorful and sharp image. I’m very satisfied, and could not expect this lens and its debut better!
