Philippe mon ami,
I like the wide shot because it breaks the "rules!" Although I would've bent
my knees for a slightly lower angle rather than tilting the camera down. Not
shooting into the sun often misses the beauty of the light. Does it always
work? No, but even when in doubt I shoot it ... "Oh hell shoot it and see
what I have later!"
If it were film I'd be a little hesitant about wasting film and only shoot 2
frames. But with digital if there is any question in my mind ... "I wonder
what it would it look like ?" I shoot it, bracket and work it from number
of angles because it isn't until we're in the quiet of the "light room and
computer" can we be absolutely sure it turned out to be a nothing photo. Or
something magical. :-)
You can't get it later! So we might as well shoot it in various forms of
composition and exposure and delete later! Rather than being sorry we didn't
make the effort to "maybe have a neat photo moment!"
This is an interesting addition to the series! :-)
cheers,
Dr. ted
Shot long (against the light), ultra-wide (against all rules), and
portrait (50 i.e. 100).

(Can be seen larger by clicking on the double frame above the image).
Note: I know about the flare issue in the UW one, but I like it so.
Also a camera (movie) crew was there as I shot, staying at the hotel
where the angel lives I guess - the guy was curious about my shooting
against the light, and asked ...
and then had his tripod and cam positionned the way I had, against
the light LoL
I'd like to see their takes, anyone of you?
C&C welcome as usual.
Bien cordialement de Metz
Philippe
