New on 500px : Strangers and Waves by Barisparildar by Barisparildar

I was driving on PCH today, listening “Tool” on Pandora… Waves looked amazing all the way from Santa Monica to Malibu… 10 minutes before sunset, i pulled over my car, took my camera out and started looking for an interesting composition. Sunset was pretty regular. Colors were just not attracting me at all. Then i saw these people… Waves were breaking right behind them. It looked like a perfect moment to capture. This is the secret of photography. Don’t get stuck on one idea. Look around and observe. Something will come up eventually. If i insisted on taking a sunset picture i would never be able to catch this moment.

New on 500px : A different point of view… by Barisparildar by Barisparildar

This is one of those photos just created in less than a minute… As i remember, it was in the middle of a very stressful week. We decided to spend the only couple free hours at the beach and relax a bit. As soon as we arrived at the beach we saw these great cloud forms. Being a fan of clouds, i took my tripod out of the trunk quickly. Ran to the lifeguard cabin. I had the picture in my head before i shot it. My girlfriend was near the ocean walking. I told her that it would look amazing if she could stand still. She stopped right in the middle. I took 2 pictures and it was done. I cannot remember why we were so stressed all that time but i clearly remember how beautiful those clouds were and i am glad i can share it with so many people now… Have a great week…
