I’ve just moved into an apartment overlooking the beach at Surfers Paradise and I’m toying with the idea of publishing a souvenir book on the Gold Coast while I’m here……
My intention is to leave “big picture tourism photography” over the next five years to concentrate on photo essays like this one I’ve just drawn from my archives on the land diving ritual of Pentecost Island. So much tends to be overlooked rushing around in search of that one big promotional photo. So, I look forward to slowing it all down, spending longer in the countries I visit, and capturing images like these that tell a deeper, richer story.
I had no idea that movies were colour-graded, and that the same applications could be applied to still photography (more evidence I’ve been sitting under a rock for the past 20 years when it comes to advanced post-production techniques)……
Dark and moody images are proving popular on Instagram at the moment so I thought I’d look to get on top of some of the post-production techniques being used……
My burst of enthusiasm to improve my post-production skills continues, with time spent today learning how to apply beams of light to add drama to my images, particularly in low-light conditions.
