Devilish Thoughts
Going through old photos, I re-discovered photos I had taken while attending the DPC Studio Lighting course MANY years ago (pre-Covid and before Studio 012). Unfortunately I cannot remember the model’s name, she was actually a make-up artist by trade, and an incredible subject. Converted the photo to black and white for more…Read More

“Aspire” Triathlete #1

I was working on my panning technique at the recent People’s Triathlon here in Gqeberha. Got a lot of bad shots (and I mean A LOT), but there were a few that were not too bad, like this athlete from Aspire triathlon club.

Taken with a Canon EOS 6D Mark II and my favourite 100mm Canon macro lens.

Feeling arty tonight. Might be the red wine.

These two photos were taken near Kukonje Island at sunset. The first photo was shot at 560mm, 1/4000 sec, f/7.1, ISO 800. The second photo was captured at 560mm, 1/1250 sec, f/6.3, ISO 800. I really like how the zoom makes the sun appear larger.

I’ve always preached that the magic of photography lies with the photographer, not the gear. Recently, a DPC student who wanted to give back blessed me with a bounty of Sony equipment, including some legendary Batis Sonnar lenses. This was one of the biggest miracles I’ve experienced, especially as my trusty Canon EOS R began showing its…Read More

Conventional wisdom, when shooting Birds in Flight at sunset is to keep the sun at your back. But sometimes it pays to break the rules. I shot this straight into the setting sun hoping for a few golden highlights under the wings. Initial post proce…Read More
