- This is one of my favourite photographs, and in this video, I wanted to take you through some of the images that lead up to this image and some of the thought processes that I went through.
Thanks for watching and if you have any questions, let me know in the comments.
Cheers

I bought this print from Jeff, had it framed and it hangs in my office. Great image! It has movement. Very unique. I am also a professional photographer for over 35 years. The detail, depth, composition and beautiful printing makes this image a true work of art we are proud and happy to display.
Thanks Tim. I’m glad you like it so much.
Great image. I must say that I like the „flat“ image just as much or even better somehow 😀 must remind me of HCB because of the person jumping over water. Don’t know. Just love it. In that image the people are more like a foreground element and the horizon is the star of the show. But fits the mood of the picture so well.
Thank you. The light, for me, makes the photograph. In an ideal world I guess the kid jumping in that light would be perfect.
Luck favours those that are ready. Amazing photo!
Thank you so much. As Cartier-Bresson once said “it’s all luck”!!
I regularly view your work Jeff, and this image has always stood out for me. It's the one that makes me wish it was mine!!...... Very inspiring work/Art
Loving the video Jeff. Always a fan of your work.
Thank you David
Great work Jeff, which I knew of but not on youtube. Only found this after you did the podcast with Mali Davies, which was superb.
Thank you. First podcast I’ve done in many years and the first with Sarah. Mali was a great host
@@WalkLikeAlice For sure he a nice guy.
I’m so gripped by yourself and your partners photography. Wonderful compositions in all your images. The final shot a real moment a pleasure to look at this image. Thank you
Thank you so much for your kind words. 🙏🏻
your photos are always beautiful!
Thank you. You are very kind.
Beautiful shots
Thank you!!
Absolutely superb shot and video.
Thank you. That’s very kind of you to say so.
I love the image! I liked moment before better. Wind ,dust , sand particles, water all in dynamic motion. The joy of small handheld cameras! AA , Weston and Large format very seldom can capture these precious times! Great framing (like earlier img. better) BW at it's best. I find nature very difficult. People one can assess. Nature the Queen Boss! Oh! Suggest carry a clear plastic bag as protection.. Great work.
Thank you Jason
Inspiring stuff.
Thank you
I gotta ask how windy was it since you were shooting at 1000 and still got the sand's motion blur
I’ve no idea what the wind speed was but we regularly get gusts of 40-50 mph. I remember it being exceptionally windy on this particular day.
@@WalkLikeAlice when i first looked at the pic i actually thought that was water waves!
Nice shot! Stupid question: Does Leica have their own photo editor? Or do you use LR/PS? I don’t have a Leica. I am thinking of getting a Q2 Monochrome. Thank you.
No, Leica doesn’t have its own editing software. I use LR for most of the editing with PS for any fine-tuning. I would recommend getting a yellow filter for the Monochrom.
@@WalkLikeAlice can you do a video about the how you edit the color to black and white
@@gusatvoschiavon There is no great secret to it. I use a properly calibrated monitor in constant neutral lighting and process everything with these presets

Isn't it funny that you can take loads and loads of pictures over years. But there is always that one picture that is just your favourite.
I really like this photograph but I disagree with your synopsis of how one looks at it. IMO, I think the viewer’s eye first looks at the 3 people and then goes in a clockwise direction rather than how you explained it.
Actually, the more I look at it the more I realise it’s a wonderful composition.
Couldn’t think of the name at the time but it’s a Fibonacci spiral.
