Recently I started experimenting with HDR images and multiple exposures. This photo is of Nottingham Playhouse was taken at about 8 pm and consists of three images. HDR is definitely the future of imaging and I’m sure that all camera makers aspire to produce digital sensors and intelligent processors to register HDR without the need for multiple exposures. It might take a few more years, but it will definitely come sooner then expected.

Last month Viva! photoshoot in Bristol was very nice. Working with Viva! is always a sheer pleasure, I must admit. Friendly faces, positive attitudes, and best of all ‘uber’ delicious vegan sandwiches served all day. For those who don’t know Viva! is a UK charity that campaigns for a vegetarian/vegan world. Founded in 1994 by Juliet Gellatley, Viva! works towards ending cruelty to animals for a saner and more sustainable future. To support their campaigns they sell a whole variety of vegan and vegetarian products. Visit their online shop.

Somehow this image reminds me of Hemingways The Old Man and the Sea because these fishermen with all their gear and efforts try to conquer and exploit this vast body of nature that in reality is completely out of their reach. I actually wanted to tilt the picture to achieve the illusion of the water coming down on them but I’ve decided to stay truthful to the horizon.
