The difference between working in a studio or on location is how you can use the space. In a studio, as a photographer, you often stand in front of the background, so that the photo becomes flat in the beginning, you can influence that by using studio lamps in which you can get more dynamics in a photo with light and shadow.

The advantage of working on location is that you can adjust the angle relative to a background more easily, where I am standing next to the background with this photo, which helps the background to create depth and guide the viewer through the photo.

At the back is soft sunlight which lights up her hair beautifully and at the front the model gets soft fill light to illuminate her face and to give the bright spots in her eyes.

EURASIAN OWL (?)

I have been sorting through my external SSDs, getting rid of all the photographs I should have got rid of on the day I uploaded them.

Be Careful

I have been working through all my SSD exts, which are filled with thousands of photographs, most of which are dross and need to be deleted.

New Life

This is not a good shot in the way we ould normally think of but I at least the got the eye dead sharp of this 5-7 day old Wood Pigeon which we have done our best to protect both parents.
