Pro photographers have known for years the magical ability to just capture a second when they press the shutter at the right millisecond. Occasionally such moments can be planned, and frequently they cannot. Occasionally they are just there, and you’ve got to snap it without thought for composition or lighting or any of the other elements we all know are urgent for quality photography.
As an example, you can plan for an image full of the energy of the wind when somebody or a vehicle crosses the line of sight.
Or when you know something provoking is prepared to happen, like the appearance of a baby, having a camera prepared for that first moment of life could lead to a wonderful picture. Such life moments can be caught if you are prepared with your ability and talent and apparatus.
That moment when just the right elements come together for surprising composition, is sometimes nothing that you could have planned or set up. Recently my partner and I escaped and spent a weekend in the mountains where, one evening at dinner, we were seated on the porch of the dining room. Just as our salads were served, the sun moved from behind clouds and the brilliant metal roofs of mountain homes were illuminated across the meadow. Bright red and green and blue and gray roof colors flooded our senses as if a bucket-full of marbles had been tossed against the green and brown mountainside.
The sight was so full of vitality and virility that we could hardly talk with the vibrancy of it all.
That moment wasn’t planned. It just took place. Occasionally such experiences can be imagined before the circumstance. As an example, you know a crop moon will be a powerful sight, and you can make arrangements for shooting it by being in the right spot at the right time. The unpredictable can be made easily controllable with a little forethought.
You can envisage what might be, before it really occurs. Demonstrating patience may open doors for a range of atypically composed stills, particularly if you want to attend on just the right natural light, or shade, or form or energy.
