Wall - Day 132


Do we need all the mega pixels to create interesting photos? I believe not. But having fewer mega pixels at our disposal requires carefull planning while composing your shot, as you don't want to loose "pixel real estate" by cropping in post processing. I own a Nikon D300 with a 12 Mp sensor and it has served me well for 4 years. As I grew up shooting film I'm used to think all aspects through before capturing the actual photo and thereby keeping post processing to a minimum. But a Nikon D800 is on its way to me as the extra "pixel real estate" of a 36 Mp sensor offers a large freedom to crop interesting parts of photo.

Take this photo as an example. I used my Nikon D300 with a Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 and walked to a nearby creek. The I sad down on a small canoe gangway and looked at the scene around me for nearly 20 minuttes before a photo took form in my mind. The photo was composed so cropping would not necessary. The still water entering a large area of rush that took the form a great wall, looked like a potential interesting scene if transformed with one of my own texture layers and post processed in CS6.

Debatindlæg omkring "det globale marked", entreprenørskab og innovationslysten

Fra velfærd til velstand - kravet er et erhvervsklima, der fremmer entreprenørskab og innovationslysten Globalisering er et vidt begreb. Det viser mange af de artikler der er skrevet omkring dette emne det seneste år. Jeg undres dog over den ofte populistiske tilgang der gennemsyrer mange artikler. Fænomenet kan dog forklares. Globalisering er så vidt et begreb, at konsekvenserne af globaliseringen skal belyses snævert. Det er derfor på tide at globaliseringsdebatten bliver mere kvalificeret og nuanceret. Hvor ofte har vi ikke læst, at ”globaliseringen kræver at vi tør tænke nyt”, at vi skal ”vinde det globale kapløb på viden, kreativitet og godt købmandskab” og at mange danske virksomheder ”ikke ved hvordan man kommer fra overskrifter til en konkret og fremadrettet strategi”? I den forbindelse er det på sin plads at definere ordet strategi. Jeg refererer til Berlingske Nyhedsmagasin nr. 28, der i deres artikel ”I har misforstået hvad strategi er” citerer professor Michael Porter...

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.
