Carnivals
are one of my best events take it or leave it. As a photographer the ability to
create classic photography stays within a straight forward ambience (White and
Black) but the ability to creating a captivating a more stunning image that
could leave your mouth ajar, would have to entail color composition.
Carnivals
are celebrations done in different cultures, in different ways but the high
point is the identification of bizarre yet colorful outfits that easily attract
attention. For a photographer or a photojournalist, there is more to it than
just taking that picture. Your ability to identify the picture in the picture
is the most important.
Everybody is
jumping in Suits of Yellow color, that’s normal fun. Is there a 3 year old in
their midst trying to imitate a jump? That’s the picture. Carnival piece should
be attended to wisely.
There are
salient points to take note of when doing carnival creatives.
Lights (Available
lights)
The ability
to use the available light at your creative disposal is one of the major things
that is open to a photographer. There might be some outfits that really count
in terms of the extent at which it blends up and creatures a illusion when
bounced against the light. Lights are important when shooting during a
carnival. Natural lights are better adviced.
Creativity
Your
creativity is your ability to recognize a picture within the picture. Your
ability to stop time, and making it worth the stop. Your creativity lies within
what you notice that other photographers might not take mention of during
photographic composition. Everybody takes photographs, but what distinguish a
photographer from the other, is the ability to create an ICE-FREEZING image (soothing
and captivating)
