June – Mount Cook Delta

How I did it -This image was shot through the flexiglass of helicopter. The ride takes you to a small ridge just below te Mount Cook and on our return I saw this slushy water ways ( delta) draining to the lake in front. To avoid the vibrations of the helicopter I chose ofcourse a high shutter but the other trick is to cushion with your fingers between the flexiglass and the lens and hold your breath. It will be a mistake to put the lens directly on the flexiglass.Every now and then one gets reflectios which are a bother. Image saturation was done on PS.

 Very interesting image!  I have seen arial pictures of rivers and it is amazing how they actually look like roots of a tree from the air.  Amazing color for being shot behind plexiglass.

Very wild image.  The play of the water paths and than the deep blue water in the distance is very interesting.  Even the sky has character.  Excellent use of a wide angle lens.

Barun Sinha - (barunks@hotmail.com)

I am a urological surgeon. My photographic interest started 35 yrs ago when I purchased a used SLR. For many years it was limited to snap shooting.

During my training period in surgery I nearly got separated from photography and the interest rekindled when I joined a local photo group of which I am the president now. I regularly participate in both national as well as internationals salons. Wild life, nature, travel, landscape and portraits are my favorite in that order. I travel regularly both in India as well as abroad and never without my camera gear and Africa is the most frequent destination. A year and a half ago I started shooting digital. Canon D 10 followed by D 20. Thinking for D5. Started learning photoshop in June 2005 and thanks to the excellent book of Sid Pearce I have learnt the first few words of the alphabet. Joined PSA in 2004.
