Before the moon was set, the people from pasar ikan, Kedonganan, Bali, were already busy preparing for the morning market. The activity started early before the fishermen return in their “Jukung” of traditional fishing boat. I was able to use the mentioned setting, hand held to capture an image even before sunrise.
Similar to “Setting Out To Lake Batur”, I have to work with my experience when the light meter failed me. I have managed to capture this image with fairly accurate in exposure. Due to the high-density ratio, I have to use the digital blending technique in order to retain sufficient detail of the shade.
In contrast to my previous posting, I decided to shoot against the light for this image. I have applied the dodge tool of Adobe to retain the colours of the sail of the boat on the front line.
The visual impact of the final result is totally different. Which one you like best, perhaps is just a matter of personal taste.
