Continuing my street photography project with a walk one morning through the Italian city of Como. To move quickly and freely I filmed this as a Point of View. I got some interesting images as I continue to try and learn a new style of photography.
Just a bit of fun and there’s some advice about photography right at the end, I hope you enjoy this video and look forward to better times. In 2014 I went to Dublin for a city break around St Patrick’s Day, the parade through the city centre was dazzling and fun and full of colour and life, the complete opposite to this year. I am working through all of my photography archives, removing the bad images and selecting everything that is in focus and I found myself looking through and editing photos of that day in 2014 on St Patrick’s Day 2021.
Struggling with photography block, unable to pick up my camera and feeling unmotivated to take pictures, I gave myself a challenge to spend one week with one lens: my canon 50mm f1.8. I had to explore different styles of photography, including street and documentary photography. Everyday I went out and took some pictures, let’s see how that went…
I went straight to photograph the Temple Volta in the Park in Como, Italy today. I knew I wanted to get some landscape photography done with this temple as my subject both illuminated at night and with some natural light. The night images had to be created using exposure blending in Photoshop, but turned out brilliant. And I was treated to a very colourful sunrise!
Heading through Como once again, I couldn’t see any architectural compositions but once I made it to the park on the shores of Lake Como, I found my subject: the trees illuminated by the street lamps. The perfect subject for some black and white landscape photography. A great morning of photography!
An early morning wandering through the streets of Como, Italy, I was looking for subjects to photograph. The dramatic lighting of the street lights on the old Renaissance architecture leant itself to some interesting street photography. I made it to a viewpoint on Lake Como where I got some great classic landscape photography images.
