Douglas DC-3

Douglas DC-3 - (c) HarveyG Photography

Shot at the South African National Museum of Military History (14/11/2010)

There is a lot of clutter around this aircraft, so in order to not get buildings and other displays crowding the shot I chose to shoot from below into the sky. The clouds were perfect to add a little drama and interest.

This aircraft Delivered to the USAAF on 11 January 1945 as 43-49838 and now SAAF 6850

Freedom (Road Trip)

Freedom (Road Trip) (c) HarveyG Photography

I noticed this image appear in the mirror driving home yesterday and conjured up this concept of a road trip with no-one else in sight.  Stopped the car in the rain, grabbed the D90 and bolted across the road to get a few shots. I waited until only one car was visible coming over the rise to get that feeling of independence and freedom that the open road is renowned for.

Unaltered photo, no Photo Shop post processing except USM (UnSharpMask)

Photo 101: As a photographer you should ALWAYS look behind you, especially when shooting.

The Babysitter

Took this shot indoors. Manual Exposure, Manual Sunpak GX8R Ring Flash, busy subject :) A baby African Bull Frog who was trapped in my courtyard so I offered him his freedom in exchange for a quick studio shoot :) It’s weird but normal doesn’t get attention much anymore they say…

Subtle Africa – Signature Category Winner – Sunsets

by on Feb.08, 2010, under Daily Awards, eShop, Photo Competitions, Print for Sale

Subtle Africa by Harvey G

Subtle Africa - © HarveyG Photography

I took this photo in the Kruger National Park (KNP) on the way out after a week of shooting.

It had intentional dead space between the moon and silhouette barren winter trees that I hoped let the viewer wander from top to bottom experiencing the magical dusty African sky gradations at that time of year. Those colours are accurate and un-enhanced. It is by no means a definitive or formulae sunset shot, with glowing sun, reflections on water, birds in the sky across the sun etc. This is the kind of thing you see almost every winter in Africa, if the sky is cloudless. Shot with a Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 35-70mm f/3.3-4.5
