Honorable Mention
Over the moon
DESCRIPTION
These shots with the moon are super tricky because there is much time to get the shot before the moon gets too high. It's also tricky to place the flashes in a way that everything works well. But we found this little pocket on the lagoon that worked. On these flash shots there is only one shot per try so professional kiteboarder Carlos Mario and I had to figure out the position well to align with the moon. 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.
