Candid photography is one of my subject that I have been practising. On 27 05 2023 at Yarra River side next to the Melbourne Skydeck , there was a lot of opportunities for capturing story telling image. I was attracted by the two people engrossed in their conversation. To top up the visual impact of the image, a pair of seagulls appeared in the corner of my frame. To me, was rare opportunity to capture the image of the decisive momnt.
One of my favourite place for photography in Melbourne, Australia, is none other than Hosier Lane. Though the present trip in May 2023 was more of a family trip, with my hand phone in hand, I managed to capture a number of eye-catching shots. Beside the colourful environment of art, to capture the decisive moment within a split of a second is utterly important to me.
“秋风扫落叶” in English means “as the autumn gale sweeps away the fallen leaves”. I had been so enthralled by the autumn mood that I had hardly noticed the cold during my recent trip in Melbourne.
The mood was even enhanced further when the strong wind (most probably at 26 km/h ) swept away in the Fawkner Park, Melbourne, Australia, on 31 05 2023.
My concept at that moment, was to utilize a slow shutter speed on my camera to capture an eye-catching image in my mind. As I was using a compact camera, I hand help my camera with a setting at slow shutter speed. I am very pleased with the final impact of the final image.
