Talent is nothing without dedication and discipline, and dedication and discipline is a talent in itself.

This image is from my most recent trip to Cuba.

 

 

As a general rule I never set up any of my images. On those occasions when I have an ima ge where I need a dancer to be in a specific place, I do as much as one can to be vague (to the point of the dancer feeling I’n completely clueless) about why I want from them. One of, in not the most important concept that drives the way I approach being taken by the image is this: In absolute spontaneity to you get absolute truth. You can only be one way if you are spontaneous and that is truthful.

 

 

I also as close to never one can get crop an image.99.9% of all the images I have ever shot are full frame. I believe that the rectangle I see in the viewfinder is the canvas to compose within.

 

 

Simply put I do not pre-visualize my images before I shoot them I only pre-visualize then after they are shot.

 

 

SO to this image. I was shooting boxers, the whistle blew, the practice “bout” ended and the boxer who was sparring with the boxer I was actually shooting at the moment move to the ropes to hear what the Riner was saying to him I filled the Fram pushed the shutter ring then he went back to center ring and the whistle blew to start the new bout of sparring.

 

 

The point? It took more time to describe it and more time for you to read the description of events than it took to track, frame and capture the moment.

 

 

Each and every person who desires to to be a photographer has the talent to do it. But Talent is nothing without dedication and discipline, and dedication and discipline is a talent in itself.

 

 

Again I say here is more to boxing than the elegance of the randomness of the ring.

 

 

I shot this with the 135mm “Plena” Nikkor lens. 1/5000 of a second ISO 1000. Image raw processed in NX Studio and Photoshop CC with the NiK collection by DxO.
