Contrasts in Cannes

Julie Edwards travel May 23, 2024 1 Minute

Yesterday (the 2nd Wednesday of the festival), I decided not to photograph any red carpet events, instead I wandered around the town in the afternoon, then later, at dusk, carrying my X100 fixed lens camera to photograph some of the atmosphere of the town and the visible contrasts

Weirdly I worked at times in colour and at other times in my preferred Acros monochrome (G), direct in camera.

Firstly the colour images (click through for the captions).

I am a Sussex based photographer providing imagery for the entertainment industry. My working time is split fairly evenly between London and Sussex although I have worked all around the world; from Europe covering the BAFTA's, Glastonbury, Cannes and Berlin Film Festivals, to the USA covering The Oscars. Passing knowledge & experience on is very important to me and so I am proud to say I have served on the Board of the British Press Photographers Association, helping to improve the image and practices of working press photographers. I educate by writing a widely read “technical” blog detailing my use of Fuji cameras and other equipment as well as giving talks about Press (and other aspects of) Photography to camera clubs and groups.
