I felt it was fitting to close the February circus theme with photos of Jamie Duffy on the Wheel of Death. Do you prefer the colour or the mono image?
In the first image Jamie is performing a somersault outside the wheel without a harness or line, and is the only performer executing this particular trick in Ireland. In the colour image Jamie is skipping on the outside of the wheel. Both images were taken with an open aperture of f/2.8 and a shutter speed of 1/1000 sec. The colour image had an iso of 4000 while the mono image had an iso of 6400. I used Topaz DeNoise to sharpen and reduce the noise in all the circus images I processed.
More images of Jamie and his brother Tom, and other performers can be viewed at SnappyTimes , just click on an image to view a panel of images featuring each performer.
