Unscripted Shooting

With no shot list or guidelines other than to “shoot subjects with character,” Harder headed out to take the photos that would eventually form part of his “Unscripted” exhibition.

Focusing on textures, plant life and figure-in-landscape compositions, Harder shot on location at Kayangan Lake, Coron; a mangrove in Negros, and the seaside huts at Anilao, as well as Boracay, Cambodia and Baguio.

“Coron has really great colour – even the rocks!” Harder says. Rock and water feature in many of his texture shots, with emphasis added by natural light. Harder shot his subjects as he found them: “I did not put that leaf there,” he explains of one photo. “It was there for the moment, and after I shot it, it just floated away.” Photography is all about seizing the moment, says Harder.

“There are moments you (just) have to capture, in a particular place. Sometimes, there’s no time for setting the camera, so just shoot. This is a moment that will not happen again.”

Thanks for the space. God bless everyody's weekend.
