Koenigsegg on Mallorca
Hey!
I recently had the pleasure of taking a vacation in the sunny paradise of Mallorca, where I stumbled upon an exciting idea to jazz up my social media presence. The goal was simple: to take full advantage of the breathtaking Mediterranean environment and try something completely new for my channel. I decided to embark on a photographic journey, capturing the dazzling beauty of my surroundings.
Armed with just my iPhone and a Canon 5D Mark IV, I set out to explore Mallorca. It was a bit of an experiment to determine if I could capture truly stunning images, even with the limited gear I had at my disposal. My trusty companion for the trip was the Sigma Art 50mm lens, which, although somewhat limiting, proved to be more versatile than I initially thought.
The first thing that struck me during this adventure was the shimmering environments that Mallorca had to offer. The glistening waters, the vibrant landscapes, and the radiant sunshine all provided the perfect backdrop for my experiment. As I explored different locations, I realized that with some creative thinking, I could overcome the limitations of my equipment.
One key realization was that by taking multiple shots from the same location and combining them later, I could create panoramic views and wide-angle shots. While this approach yielded large image files, it allowed me to achieve the expansive, picturesque views I had in mind. If only I had conceived this idea before my trip, I might have brought along an additional lens to make things even more exciting.
Upon returning to my studio, I was eager to see if my plan would come to life. I carefully placed my Koenigsegg Jesko, a sleek and beautiful sports car model, into the enchanting environments I had captured in Mallorca. It was essential to use my iPhone to photograph the car, ensuring that the lens and lighting conditions matched those of the original photos as closely as possible.
The light was matched in as the pictures i took on Mallorca as well. To make sure to have the most control, i used a contunious light source and matched up the shadows as good as possible.
To my delight, the experiment worked seamlessly. The miniature car seamlessly blended into the breathtaking Mallorca scenes, creating some truly fantastic and unique images. The shiny, polished surfaces of the car complemented the sparkling landscapes of Mallorca, resulting in captivating photographs that I'm excited to share with my audience.
In conclusion, my Mallorca adventure turned out to be a delightful mix of exploration, photography, and a touch of creative experimentation. It was a reminder that sometimes, limitations can be a source of inspiration, and with a little ingenuity, you can turn ordinary photos into extraordinary ones. So, keep an eye on my social media channels for these extraordinary images that showcase the perfect harmony of shiny cars and stunning scenery, all captured on the sunny shores of Mallorca.
All the best!
