It’s about 4 years I’m shooting sailing boats almost every week, and sometimes I wonder myself how many different ways can a sailing boat be photographed. Is there anything new we can do or are we almost done with it. Its there a limit in creativity? Once a friend told me, the secret of a good picture is “un certo che” like the Italians say. Do I have “un certo che” and once we have it, can we always get it, or does this “un certo che” disappear sometimes? Can we find a new “certo che” in case we loose it?
Since a bit more than year I’m experimenting with some new editing techniques, amazing effects, it’s like opening a new door to a new world. The angles how we shoot the boats may remain the same but the way we look at a picture will this change, is this a new “certo che”?
