Dag 113 - Panorama af Watergate Bay i Cornwall


Dette er et panorama foto sammensat af fire fotos. Jeg havde ikke stativ med, så teknikken er at stille sig så stabilt som muligt, holde armene ind til kroppen for støtte, mens man roterer kroppen fra venstre mod højre og skyder en række fotos. Det er bedst at vælge manuel styring "M" af kameraet, så eksponeringen af hvert foto bliver identisk. Her valgte jeg "A" styring (Aperture) og kontrollerede dermed blænden og dermed hvor meget lys der skal til (lukketiden ("S" styring) varieres dermed af kameraet). 

I Photoshop blev de fire fotos flettet sammen, og jeg rettede efterfølgende nogle synlige overgangsfejl. Herefter har jeg anvendt "dodge og burn" på udvalgte områder af fotoet for at fremhæve højlys, skygger og mellemtoner. Et sort-til-hvid lag er blandet ind i fotoet med en 50%'s effekt. Endelig er kontrasten øget.

På fotoet ses en lille by. Vi kørte kun igennem den, men det så ganske hyggeligt ud. Her findes et hotel - "The Hotel" - som ligger helt ud til vandet. Det er den store bygning på mit foto. Jeg har ikke boet der, men på deres hjemmeside ser det ganske godt ud til et lille ferieophold.
Ved at søge lidt på området omkring Watergate Bay fandt jeg også en restaurant - "Fifteen Cornwall" - startet af Jamie Oliver.

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.
