THINGS TO TRY THIS MONTH
Try this…
Shoot a typical
British scene
As of this issue of What Digital
Camera going to press, there has
been very little summer to speak
of. However, there are always
photographic opportunities to
be had, as this image by Paul
Anthony Wilson from the Brits On
Holiday category of the British
Life Photography Awards ably
demonstrates. Why not make a list
of quirks and characteristics that are
considered typically British, and set
yourself a project to shoot them in
what remains of the ‘summer’…?
TOP TIP
Be careful when metering a scene such as this one,
as the bright highlights in the refl ections might
fool the camera into underexposing. Use spotmeter
mode to take a reading from a midtone area.
