In contrast to astrophotography, sometimes you point the camera at the subject, compose to taste, trip the shutter, and voila, the image looks more or less complete as captured. Straight out of camera. SOOC. No need to add a bunch of frames together to reduce noise, correct for vignetting, color grade. No post visualization. None of that. Here I was playing a game of lightning photography, looking for compositions, textures and colors on a walk. Will we ever escape the tyranny of the grid? Do we even want to? Well, I’m afraid those are topics for another day.
