Looking into my archives trying to come up with some useful contact sheets for you guys, here is something that is taking my usual process the other way around. This is actually something I find myself talking about more and more while on the photography tours around Asia: in order to be more efficient with…

2 days ago during the sunset photography tour in the countryside of Hoi An we met a few men fishing along the river. It was late afternoon and we had already lost the sun. The light was becoming a little flat and I wanted to discuss with the students about ways to create interesting images…

Here’s a new contact sheet which is more focused on a close-up portrait. If you’d like to get a better idea about how I compose my creative portraits, head onto my “creative portraiture” article first. While running my usual sunset photo tour around Hoi An, we met this man in the corn fields. This was…

Maybe a little longer than usual, but surely a more interesting contact sheet. I am sure you will enjoy it. Yesterday I got a call from Philip, an Ozie travelling through Hoi An and whom I met 3 years ago when he joined my sunrise tour, who asked me if I was running a more…

After a year of not publishing new contact sheets, I think it is time to do one more. Plus I am stuck in an airport in China and I can’t waste my time on Facebook. A contact sheet of one of my favourite image for this year. While taking another photographer in the countryside around…

Working on a contact sheet from an older photo I took ion Laos in 2012, in a brick factory near Luang Prabang. This is such a stunning location that I am bringing my students in there every year during our photo tour. The place is covered with red dust, and the tiny particles of dust…

ISO 800 // 1/60th // 50mm @ 1.8 A new contact sheet, with a little older photo I took near Sapa, North Vietnam, in 2011. This photo is actually the best seller one in my gallery in Hoi An. As you can see, and this is a little different from other contact sheets I have…

  On this week’s contact sheet, I am using a photo I took few months ago in Sittwe, Rakhine state, Myanmar. The idea is to study what photos led to the final shot, the one I like best. Of course, as we all have different tastes, you may like another one best, feel free to…

Every week I am going to publish some contact sheets from photos I recently took. In a way Arte (Franco-German TV channel) created these awesome videos studying some of the best photographers’ contact sheets (at that time when the only thing used was Film). I highly recommend you check them out on Youtube.   I…
