It is all about the moment


Sometimes we over think our photographs. We have an idea in our head, that a certain photograph will look a certain way and have a certain light but sometimes we have to break out of that shell and let the moment guide us.

This is straight flash on camera set to about -1 EV on the flash and focused on the eyes of the fighter. No fancy lights, not set up, no set position, I ran to the spot where I thought the picture would be and waited for it to happen and depressed the shutter button. Sometimes we work hard to get an image that is burning a hole in our brains and it doesn't look as good as we thought it would be.

Other times images happen in front of us and the look much more beautiful that we anticipate.
