Talking technique
The battle between photographers and police or security guards regarding photographers’ rights
to take pictures in public places is an ongoing one wherever you are in the world. It is a debate that
rages strongly and one that is frequently covered in AP. See the news item ‘Police: Photographers
should carry identification’ at www.amateurphotographer.co.uk/news, where AP news editor
Chris Cheesman and photographer Grant Smith discuss the subject on More4 News. There is no
fundamental law against photographing buildings in the UK so long as you are on publicly owned
land. In Dubai you have to have permission to photograph any hotels on-site and, as in the UK, it is
acceptable to take pictures in public places on public land. The beach where I took this image is a
public beach, which anyone can shoot on. There is a private beach on the other side and it’s difficult to
get permission to shoot from there. I managed to get permission for an hour before sunrise one day
during my visit, but just as the clouds were starting to form interesting shapes I was ushered away.
Photographing in Dubai, as in any foreign country, requires a certain amount of tact and care.

In combat, casualties are all too common.
While Sgt Harmer was on his three-
month post in Afghanistan, 22 soldiers
lost their lives. The decision over whether
to photograph death is a contentious
one, highlighted most recently with the
Associated Press’s decision to release an
image for publication of a mortally wounded
soldier taken by the civilian photographer
Julie Jacobson. The photograph was
published in the US media without consent
and much debate has ensued over the
morality of publishing a picture of this nature.
‘That picture was something we discussed
in Afghanistan,’ says Sgt Harmer. ‘Graphic

The images look about as good as you would expect
for a camera costing £40, lacking sharpness and
suffering from distortion, although they are
reasonably well exposed.

adding more Lego bricks to the top and

of fun to be had incorporating the camera

Honl Photo flash filter kits

£15.80 per kit and around
£8.50 for the Speed Strap
Honl has recently released three new photo filter kits, with each kit containing
ten filters of five different colours. The filters, which measure 2.5x4in, can be
attached to a flashgun using the Velcro strips at the ends of each filter, which
subsequently attach to a Honl Speed Strap that can be bought separately.
Similar to the Rosco Gel Starter Kit, which received four stars in AP 11 April

In theory this is a great idea. Since
digital photography became popular,
photographers have wondered
whether it would be possible to have
a camera with a sensor that could be

much better when I took the shot on a cloudy day. Taking the same shot
with an exposure adjustment of -2 stops also improved it considerably,
and although there was good detail in the cladding the rest of the picture
was darker. Am I right in assuming that is how transparency film behaves?
Angela Nicholson puts two high-resolution,
Beejaybee replies Sort of. In fact, most digital sensors have rather less APS-C-format DSLRs through their paces to find out
latitude than most transparency films and certainly lack the forgiving shadow
and highlight response curve of analogue media. What you can do with digital

have a dynamic range of around five to seven stops – that is, they can see
detail in objects that differ in brightness by up to seven stops. However, if you
go over this you’ll see black, featureless shadows or blown highlights – as on
the outside of your house. If you can put your camera into raw mode, it will
capture up to eight or nine stops of brightness. This means you can recover Icelandic
