I was walking south from O'Connell Street, heading to the Palace Pub in Temple Bar. I crossed onto O'Connell Bridge and the Liffey opened up in front of me.
The sun was going down between the buildings, the whole river on fire, gold on the water, the city doing something it only does for about ninety seconds on certain evenings. Straight up with the camera, quick change of focus, blam. That was it. If I'd been reaching into a bag for a different lens, it would have been gone.
That's the whole argument for one camera and one lens in a single photograph. You don't get a second chance at ninety seconds of light.
C Type Fuji Gloss
Professional colour paper from the Fuji Crystal archive range with a gloss finish, which accentuates the colour to give a punchy, rich feel. Gives your image more contrast, glossiness, and a punchier colour feel compared to Fuji Matt, while maintaining tonal properties and accurate reproduction.
"Dublin hands you these moments and then takes them back almost immediately. I was in the right place because I wasn't carrying anything I didn't need." — Billy
