This is the most prominent, busiest and popular side of Grand Canal. This part of the Rialto bridge is normally full of people all day long. Except if you go for sunrise/dawn; you will find the place for yourself. This evening was not an exception. As I had prior experience of what to expect, I went prepared and went early so that I have time to get the right spot and setup things properly. Setting up a tripod here is close to impossible. So I kept my little pocket tripod with me. It is a bit tough to setup, but it is pretty stable unlike most pocket tripods. It is ruggedly build solid aluminium and has a payload of 8 KG; which is very good for any DSLR. As long as there is a right base to set it up; it is good to go. So I took my time to set it up and then it was all about wait for the right moment to click.
Yet again the mobile photographers were real pain with people almost stretching their arm in front of the camera and even using flash to lit up Venice!!! I had to be very careful and kept the camera strap all the time on my neck as those super excited mobile photographers could anytime hit the camera to send it into the river. I wish there was no mobile camera invented and I wish we were still in the film world where photography was so hard that it was out of reach for most of the people. In modern world, specially with the mobile camera, serious photography is becoming more and more difficult. Specially at the popular places.
However; I am happy as long as people respect others. But unfortunately many mobile photographers have no respect of others and they are mostly unaware of photography. So probably they unknowingly put their arm in front of someone's long exposure without knowing that a camera can capture an image for several seconds. For them, it is just one click. At the same time, the flash is probably also unintentional as the mobiles are in auto and the flash triggers automatically. Many users of the mobile camera don't bother finding out how to switch that off.
Finally when I managed to capture one decent shot, I was super happy as I almost lost my hope. I immediately got out of there leaving rest of the people to fight with their mobile. It was a great relief.
At the end the image was all right and I did manage to capture some of the movements on the water. Even though I wanted a bit longer exposure. It was impossible in that circumstance. So I will content myself with this.
I have read a lot about Venice becoming over crowded. I can relate to it. I visited Venice few times with intervals of some years and indeed; this time I experienced the worse. Many tourists not respectful of the fragile situation of Venice. Throwing garbage all over the place. Throwing bottles into the water. It was a sad scene to experience in this amazing historic city. That is why I liked the dawn photography more. As I could enjoy the calmness with no one around and I could explore the corners at my own pace without any chaos.
Please have a look at my website www.avisekhphotography.com for all my recent works.
Have a nice weekend.
Hope you will enjoy the picture.
Any suggestions or criticisms are always welcome.

Last year there was a true invasion of Northern Hawk-Owls (Surnia ulula) in the South of Finland. Maybe there will be one this year as well. Got the first one of the winter season!

As street photographers, we are only too well aware of the devastation wreaked on the high street by Covid-19. With most retail being forced to close as wave-after-wave of restrictions have been imposed, foot traffic has fallen off a cliff. People are in the most part nowhere to be seen. If they are, it is scurrying to the supermarkets and food shops masked and keen to avoid the eye of anyone they meet.
Although initially the pain of cinemas was shared in the press, for the most part, their pain has been relegated to the back pages of the business section, as other larger and more visible businesses cry out for help. Unfortunately, any business, local or global within the hospitality sector has been particularly hard hit. Cinemas with their business model relying on packing in as many customers into a confined space for several hours have virtually nowhere to go. Even after the restrictions are lifted, people are going to be highly reticent for some time yet to spend several hours in darkness within inches of unknown strangers.
In North London, we had been blessed with a number of independent cinema groups, who invested heavily to innovate and offer unique film going experiences. Whether in the food they offered, the range of films shown or the comfort and luxury of the cinemas themselves. Prices while slightly higher than the mass-market cinema chains were not exorbitant and business was good.
They now lie forlorn and in darkness on the high street. Almost as if a display of defiance, the Arthouse cinema in Crouch End continued to light its façade, perhaps sending out the message that it had not given up and intended one day to return to its former glory. I felt I wanted to capture its pain as it remained under enforced closure.
When photographing the cinema, I looked to isolate the building from the surroundings, which were either unattractive or on the adjacent side, a building site. To achieve this I exposed for the highlights and allowed parts of the building to fall into shadow. At f11 I was able to create a small sunburst from the main light just above the statue. The 6400 ISO did not appear to create a significant amount of noise and with image stabilisation, I was able to achieve a relatively sharp image at 1/10s handheld.
In post-production, I used Adobe Camera Raw for my initial workflow and firstly worked to bring out the maximum amount of detail in the colour shot. I then imported the final DNG into Photoshop for some cleaning up and curve adjustments before importing into Silver Effex to create deeper shadows and more definition in the highlights.

It doesn't happen often. The winters are too long, too cold, just too harsh. But now and then you can find a Common Kingfisher (Alcedo atthis) in Finland. This individual, at least I assume its the same, has been in an area close to where I live. It was however not seen for a while and I feared the worst... but the King still lives. Long live the King.

Happy to announce that this image of a White-throated Dipper taken in Kuusamo, Finland got Highly Commended in the Birds in their Environment category in the Bird Photographer of the Year 2018 competition. It seems that the website is not in perfect order, but got the confirmation per email today and the image will also be published in the respective Bird Photographer of the Year 2018 book.
Bird Photographer of the Year is a global photographic competition; a celebration of avian beauty and diversity and therefore proud to be among the commended photographers.
Background info:
Went with a good friend of mine (Tapio Kaisla) to Kuusamo in Finland. Placed just against the Arctic Circle its a pure magic place during the Winter... well and I suppose during the Summer as well, but haven't been there yet during that part of the year.
Arrived in Kuusamo when it was below -20°C and climbed up a small hill called Konttainen to photograph stars. Not happy with any of the results so my first upload is an image from the 2nd day. After visiting Myllykoski in the Oulanka National Park we drove to Käylänkoski, which is a rapid that doesn't freeze during the cold Winter. There are therefore lots of White-throated Dippers (Cinclus cinclus) and counted 10-15 different individuals on this particular day. As usual when photographing 'Dippers' I try to use a slow shutter speed. Those birds are active and don't sit still for a very long time.
Hard work... but happy with this result, and it seems I wasn't the only one who enjoyed this image.
