Fluke photos

Post by Cunobelin »

Saw This story on the BBC News

The photograph is a sheer fluke, as the photographer admit, but still spectacular

Have you ever had that "fluke photo" that was more luck than planning?

There's one I have that I don't want to show on here.

Some summers ago, I was outside taking a photograph whilst wearing nothing. Starkers as I often am in the warmer weather in the garden.

My reflection could be seen in the window! :lol:

That is a stunning image, what a great photo.
I have a copy of a photo a friend took, but not their permission to publish, of a church statue of a pilgrim holding a cross up to the heavens, and in the clear blue sky is a crossed vapour trail that mirrors it.
My nearly shot was of a derelict house with a rainbow lining up with the chimney, well it was as I cycled past, it'd disappeared by the time I'd turned around and got the camera out...

This photo was taken by me this afternoon. It was a complete accident and unintentional, but it has a sort of surreal quality about it.
Those are obviously my feet sticking out of my overalls on the kitchen floor, and I reckon some of the picture shows part of one the kitchen chairs.

This was a fluke. If I had planned, it I would have made sure the distant sea wall was hidden completely by the nearby concrete wall.
