It’s rare for me to dedicate a blog to one capture , today is such a day !
I braved the elements last Wednesday to find picture number 50 for my 365 project , I had photographed the floods earlier in the week in a editorial style and was hoping to embrace a more creative vibe during today’s shoot, despite the despicable weather conditions .
When I return home from my 365 daily shoots I usually have a fixed idea of the picture I am going to share, one capture usually sticks in my mind , I find it, edit it , write the words and share, job done !
The serious edit takes a while and does not start properly until later in the evening when I bring a more considered view to the days work , I can’t afford to let the “unedited work” pile grow too much, so I do it daily to ensure I don’t miss anything !
The capture below was a spontaneous grab shot that I nearly missed in the edit due to my low expectations, this shot was little more than a roll of the dice that beat the odds, thankfully I found it at 10.35pm, too late for my 365 project but better than not finding it at all !
Everything about this painterly bad weather picture has taken me by surprise !
I knew this stormy weather had to be good for something ….
Stay safe and keep it real .
