I took this photo tonight with my phone because I really loved how the older building contrasted with the new, modern one behind it. Even though it’s much smaller, the white chapel looks absolutely majestic.

I remember seeing this photo almost two decades ago when I was just starting in photography. The way it arranged so much beauty in a tight, triangular formation of bodies really struck me. It had a big impact on how I view great photography.

I spent a lot of time trying to capture motion in one frame, and forgot about the background images, the stationary images that show motion.. Understanding the sport is vital, and although these images are still, the emotions are enormous, and the concentration is immense.
ISO 200, f2.8 @ 500th sec. I needed to try and seperate the subject from…Read More

Title: ‘The Girl with Pearls’
Camera: Canon 5dMk4
Lens: Tamron 70 – 200mm
Details: 1/200 sec at f8.0, ISO 250
Flash: Main – Godox AD600BM camera left, Fill – Godox TT685 speedlight camera right.
Originally shot for colour, magenta on one side of the face with a blue fill light, I felt it could also work as a dramatic black and white.

I’d like to offer a tip: Your subject’s pupils appear rather large, making the irises look too small. Next time, ensure you use a strong modeling lamp on your key light, or position a small LED light on a stand next to you. This will help dilate…Read More-
Really useful tip. Thanks Danie. Regarding skin etc. I was going for a harsh dramatic feel but I think I over cooked the harshness of the lighting leading to all sorts of problems in post loosing mid tones.

Such a simple yet effective image – mobile phone cameras really do make it easier for us to capture moments spontaneously. I believe it was Chase Jarvis who said, “The best camera is the one you have with you,” and this seems especially true for mobile cameras.
Now for my subjective feedback: If you weren’t alone, how about including someone in t…Read More

Photographing cocktails is an art that captures the essence of mixology. Each shot requires meticulous attention to detail, balancing colors, textures, and lighting to showcase the drink’s allure. The play of light on ice, the vibrant hues of ingredients, and the intricate glassware create visual symphonies. It’s about capturing not just a…Read More

An amazing capture, but we’re not sure if the white edge effects or vignette add anything.
