Charisma Comes From Concentration – 2012 Pride Parade N10456e
Harris Hui (in search of light) posted a photo:
Pride Parade is one of our local great summer events in Vancouver. I didn’t go this year.
It is also a great setting for shooting street candid. I went to see Pride Parade in 2012. Many photographers like to shoot the colourful parade teams while I did B&W candid for spectator.
This is repost of an old 2012 Pride Parade shot.
The following is the original story of post.
Happy Thursday!
I believe that charisma comes from concentration on anything. When a person immerses in something either work or play, the most interesting part of the personality will be revealed.
I always do not have confidence in shooting portraits. Most of the time I shoot candids and I do it with my instinct only.
I don’t know how to pose the subject (so they pose for themselves in a candid). I do not have money and knowledge in managing the sophisticated studio lighting (therefore I shoot available light only).
I like this sentence in a photography book that I read recently.
“What makes a portrait special is aiming not just likeness, but to allows your subject’s character to shine through.” – Sophie Goldsworthy “Rough Guide to Digital Photography”
The key is how do we achieve this tall mission?
Wish to have all your comments and advice!!
This is another candid shot taken at Pride Parade.
Have a great Tuesday!
