THE BEACH

Photograph special moments of the whole family having fun in the sun while on holiday

Beaches are places of relaxation, fun and colour. They can also be places of harsh light and deep shadows, open space and a challenge for photography. Things to look for include the obvious portraits of kids making sandcastles and licking drippy ice creams. However, close-ups and abstracts of details and colour are also worthy of a look; deckchairs can be fun, as can reflections in sunglasses. Look for interesting footprints – or make your own – and don’t forget those shadows for fun abstracts. Try and avoid midday as the light is very harsh, but you could create shade with a parasol. Another

54 trick is to use your sunglasses infront of your camera lens to help reduce contrast.

mode counteracts the55 effects of very bright

sunlight reflecting off of the sand that would normally underexpose your pictures.

Add a Samsung circular polarising filter to the front of your lens to increase colour saturation and remove reflections from shiny surfaces.

DON’T FORGET: TO ADD FLASH

It may seem bonkers to suggest flash on a bright sunny day, but flash helps add light into harsh shadows and increase colour saturation.
