This stunning landscape was captured in Exe Estuary, Devon, by Sam Evans (AKA @samevanssnaps). He told me: "The sun was setting over the hills in the background, which created this flow of golden light across the water at low tide." Reflections are a key factor when photographing bodies of water. In this instance, the reflection in the water has effectively doubled the amount of golden light.
Sam used his trusty Canon 250D, Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC and a K&F polarizing filter. But such was the spontaneity of the image, he didn’t have a tripod handy, so he improvised: “I laid my rucksack on the floor and rested my camera on top so I had a stable base.”
