To the portfolio ‘Recent Work’ I’ve added some new photos, including a panorama of the Dordrecht skyline. The original is 30 MP and composed out of three images. See a preview below.

New photo: Bunker and Flowers

May 20, 2012

A fairly simple scene and yet very difficult to photograph. For this photo I used two images. The first image was to expose the sky right, the second was for the bunker and the green. I combined the two images by ‘blending’.

The problem with this scene are the high contrasts. A camera can bridge much less contrasts than our eyes. Our eyes see detail in the bunker, the wheatfield, the flowers and the sky but not the camera. For example, if the bunker is well exposed, the air will all pale and if the air is well exposed, the bunker will appear as a silhouette. By using two shots to create one well exposed photo the limitation of the camera can be undone.

Now it costs a lot of time, but in about ten years the cameras are probably equipped with sensors that are just as good as our eyes, maybe even better. Hopefully we look back than with compassion to the techniques of 2012, if we are not still busy blending:-).

Made a report about the last training of Roparunteam ‘Dordtse Klasse(n)’

May 17, 2012

In the Whitsun weekend (26 t/m 28 May) I’m going to follow the Roparunteam ‘Dordtse Klasse(n)’ during the relay run from Paris to Rotterdam. ‘Dordtse Klasse(n)’ is one of the 325 teams that participate in this monster ride for charity. With the Roparun money is raised for people with cancer. With camera and microphone I closely follow the runners, cyclists and escorts. I will ride along in the vans and follow the team members the final stretch to the finish from the motorbike. This week ‘Dordtse Klasse(n)’ held the last training prior to the Roparun. For me it was also a rehearsal. The following report is the result of this training.
