That volcanic sand is amazing. Is black sand harder to take pictures than white sand? Just curious. Excellent results! The refection of the waves retreating back to the ocean is amazing. It’s like a reflector on top of blackboard. Thanks for another great video.
HAHAHAHAHA! Mr Taylor dropping the “buakashaka”! Love it 🙂
Hi Karl,
In terms of retouching, did you do much to these? Or were they pretty much out of the camera shots?
Thanks a lot,
Jorge
Hi Jorge, only a bit of burn and dodge, contrast stuff.
Truly amazing!! Thanks for the quick response.
A second question: where do you place your focus point on a shot like this? I usually follow the 1/3 distance from de camera. Is this correct? (my results are not yet KT level but improving…)
Cheers,
Jorge.
Hi Jorge, yes I’d follow about 1/3 in or slightly less if I was very concerned about the immediate foreground, which in this case I was. Or otherwise 1/3 to 1/2 in. However it is always good practise to switch to manual focus, find your focus point and then shoot a test and zoom in to 100% to examine the detail in all areas and address as necessary.
Perfect Karl. Honored to be your student.
Cheers,
Jorge
Amazing Job
great shots as all ways karl if I can be half as good as you I will be a happy bunny
Thank you Mark, but it just takes practise and passion and you’ll be there.
Beautiful Captures, makes me wanna sell the house and buy a Hasselblad.
Ha don’t do that Leslie, for all intents and purposes you can make great captures on most cameras, it’s more about ‘being there’ and knowing what to do.
Hahahaha!!! That was funny Leslie!!! I actually thought of doing the same thing…. 🙂
Nice and exiting video Mr Taylor !! Thanks for making us travel !!
