Diving Jesus Leica Q2, @ F8 1/800s, ISO100, 28mm I saw an interesting group wandering along the Wellington waterfront one day and tried to capture them - initially with no luck. It was dusk, not a lot of light around and they decided to dive off a popular platform at Taranaki Street wharf into the sea. The “style” with which he leapt and his flailing hair and beard made for an excellent silhouette. 56 May 2022 NZPhotographer
Pride Parade Leica Q2 @ F1.7 1/2500s, ISO100, 28mm Prior to the procession through Courtenay Place, those involved with the event were completing their preparations - happy to pose for photos. The late afternoon sun was pouring directly down the street, which really highlighted the vibrant and flowing material in this costume. LENS FLARE Lens flare is characterised by the way your equipment renders sunlight from behind your subject, when shooting directly into or at an angle to that light. What is thrown up can be quite dramatic, to very subtle – but generally, there is a dreamy retro’ look to these types of images. In extreme cases, large thin circles or spots can appear, depending on the direction of light and its angle to the glass. The nice thing about lens flare, is that photographers will generally try to avoid it by using lens hoods or filters to restrict impact of this direct light on an image – but in the last few years, it has become cool to deliberately try to blast an image full of this effect and see what happens!
