Dag 98 - Ocean View II


I dag var jeg for første gang ude at fotografere med mit nye NG filter fra B+W (3.0 1,000x). NG-filtre skrues på fronten af objektivet og forhindrer lyset i at strømme igennem. På den måde kan jeg opnå, at lukkeren på kameraet holdes oppe i længere tid (mens fotosensoren får den rette eksponering/belysning).

Dette er praktisk hvis man fotograferer direkte mod en meget stærk lyskilde såsom solen eller ild. Men også hvis man ønsker at udjævne bevægelser. Her stod lukkeren åben i 15 sekunder og derfor er havet helt "glat" fordi alle bevægelser i havet i løbet af 15 sekunder er blevet udjævnet. Det samme gør sig gældende for himmelen. Broen står helt skarpt, da den ikke har flyttet sig i løbet af de 15 sekunder.

NG-filtrene kan leveres i forskellige styrke (jo højere værdi jo mørkere er glasset). Jeg har valgt den højeste værdi og glasset er dermed meget mørt og lys kommer kun langsomt igennem.

Fotoet er taget på stranden ved Strandvejen og Taarbæk - altså i nærheden af Erimitagen og Københavns Golfklub.

Two Paths - Day 64

Days are going by - time is flying - we are getting older - the world is moving. Tic Tac Tic Tac. My professional career has come to a halt and it's time to reflect about the possibilities that opens up in such a situation. It's been a month since I stopped at Strålfors and all days (and some nights) has been used to reflect upon this situation. I've chosen to follow the obvious path - find a new job - and all my network is being activated. But another path has slowly emerged - and to no ones surprise - this path evolves around photography. I'm not talking about becoming a photographer, but to become part of the industry. Tomorrow I'll fly to Stockholm to meet some interesting people who successfully has opened a photography museum in Stockholm - Fotografiska.eu - and I'm going to here about their project and journey. The photo that I shot this afternoon in the woods nearby my home symbolise the break from Strålfors and the two new paths that I've ch...

Press photographer has to face a lot of moral issues

Every year we hear about press photographers being killed while trying to capture a decisive photo and document the truth. They also have to face a bunch of moral issues while being close to death and people in need of help. In my opinion it is vital to capture a photo that can influence decisions on a large scale. But when faced with the choice of either keep taking pictures or trying to change the course of a situation by personal interaction (and maybe risk your own life), I can only imaging the moral issues a press photographer must deal with in a few decisive seconds.
