GENERAL NOTES (Parking, etc.)
I'm not trying to give away any secrets here, but this might be a really great fishing spot, because there was both a fisherman in waders AND a Great Blue Heron fishing today (amazingly close to each other, too!) Oh, and there isn't any parking at this entrance to the beach, so I had to park a few blocks up the street, at the Browns Point Playfield Tennis & Pickleball Courts. And the good news is there's a portable restroom there. Regarding the cameras, as little as I like to do this, the shoot was done using just one camera (the Panasonic FZ1000) for every shot (WIDE, TIGHT, TELE). The downside to this approach was that I couldn't leave the WIDE shot rolling, while getting the detail shots...which is why I normally use 3 cameras.
*As A.I. (artificial intelligence) started sneaking into the photo & video production industries, I decided to go for 100% realism in my work. What this means for me, is to shoot for realistic-looking photos and video content. My approach includes using custom, lens-sensor specific CAMERA SETTINGS (and sometimes lens-sensor LUTs when needed). I never use A.I. to generate images, and I don't do tricks using Photoshop. There are adjustments I make to produce more accurate PRINTS but my goal is to limit editing as much as possible.
