Honorable Mention
Over the Sunset
DESCRIPTION
Shooting kiteboarding with flashes is always a fun mission. First we have to figure out a way to place the flashes on the water floating on these pool floaties. This was one of those specials days where there was some clouds on the sky which is not super common at very windy places. Professional kiteboarder, Maxime Chabloz did a great job and we got this cool looking trick. AUTHOR
My interest in photography began during a time I was also really into mountain biking. So I was mainly shooting the landscape of the places I got to go on my bike. Since biking is a sport that teaches you the importance of waking up early, I’ve also learnt to appreciate the beauty of that early morning light.Since I’ve always been into sports it was a natural step to start shooting my friends doing sports. I quickly noticed that shooting during “the golden hour” led to shots I liked more. But then I started shooting sports like skateboarding and it’s very hard to talk skateboarders into walking up at 5am to get that good light. That was when I started studying artificial light.
Nowadays I travel with a pretty big amount of gear and place flashes where I probably shouldn’t be placing to get the shots you see here.
