Living with what you saw? Nah, create something you like more!
On this particular day I was with an old friend visiting Exmouth to get his saxaphone serviced. That was going to take a couple of hours so we headed to the beach to laze around and grab a coffee. While watching the 1000's of people on the beach I saw a guy carring a surf board and I thought, that would make a nice photo. The only problem, there were a lot of people in the frame and since I was only sporting my little Canon G7x ii I was never going to get close enough to him to get rid of the clutter. Was I bothered, not really because I know that I can simply take out the bits I don't like to create what I do like, in this case something resembling a scene reminiscent of On The Beach with Gregory Peck and Ava Gardner. Now, for those that don't know this film, it's based on the novel by Nevil Shute and tells the post-apocalyptic tale of a submarine commander and his men who travel to San Diego in search of survivors. Anyway, a good movie and the basis for my thinking. I'll create my own post-apocalyptic tale of the demise of mankind and wipe out the population spoiling my photo. One of the great tools I have in my arsenal in On1 PhotoRAW and for this job, I know it was going to be perfect.
