Midday light at the river Meuse / Maas near Maastricht
The sun was already high but there was still some fog over the river so I made the picture. Yes, this one needed post-processing to get it right.
Holiday pictures: Djerba tourist market
Subjects: Sex herbs, colorful pottery, tajines, djellaba shops After 1/2hour I got enough of it, I had taken a few pictures and went back to the swimming pool. The moment you look at something, the salesmen jump up from their chair (However, most of them were not extremely pushing)
Holiday pictures: Ready to sail
Tip: Your goal should not be to capture the “top 10 must sees” when you are on holiday. Goal: Search (looking around and seeing it) and you will find your subjects although there is nothing to see. Here I focused on the color contrasts – Red lines, a blue sky and the azuur sea.
Holiday pictures: Point of view matters – also on Djerba
I saw the scene and I decided to make 3 pictures with different point of view and compare the result. For me bending to the knees is worth doing, as for me that gave the best result. Not?
Holiday pictures: Djerba on a cloudy day
Looking for the perfect composition, yellow-blue chairs against the azuur sea, no disturbing items in the frame, checking if the horizon is level (still some correction needed afterwards though) and then click. Any yep, it still required a lot of post processing afterwards to be satisfied.
Bad weather and a sailing boat too far away
When a photo misses some spirit due to the cloudy weather, you can improve it easily by added contrast and some post processing to make the clouds heavier. Rule of thirds: Putting even a small subject on the right position in the frame, it will make the composition stronger.
