BMX: A thrilling fusion of athleticism and artistry captivates with its daring tricks and precise manoeuvres. Riders soar through the air, defying gravity with spins, flips, and grinds, while pushing the limits of control and creativity. Each jump is a canvas, each trick a masterpiece, in the high-flying world.
Skateboard: On wooden decks, we paint our dreams, Rolling with the rhythm of the streets' streams. Concrete canvases beneath our feet, We carve our tales, our passions fleet. With each kick, we defy gravity's hold, In the symphony of wheels, stories unfold.
As a Sony Artisan based in India, I had the privilege of extensively testing the new Alpha a9 III for several weeks. During this time, I took the opportunity to capture the essence of BMX riding and skateboarding. While my intention isn't solely to extol the virtues of the Alpha a9, I must commend the remarkable capabilities of this technological marvel. For me, these sports transcend mere action-packed games; they represent poetry and art in motion.
"To crystallize poetry in imagery, I relied on the Sony A9 III, a tool transcending mere capture, seizing timeless moments precisely when they unfold. With unparalleled speed, precision, and a global shutter eliminating distractions, it's not just a camera—it's the artist's brush, effortlessly immortalizing fleeting beauty."
I'm not one to rely solely on telephoto lenses to capture my shots. Instead, I subscribe to Robert Capa's philosophy: "Your pictures aren't good enough if you aren't close enough." To ensure I adhered to this principle, I paired Sony A9 III with the FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM2 lens. The wide-angle capability enabled me to get as close as possible to my subjects. Despite shooting at shutter speeds as high as 1/12000 to 1/16000, I encountered no blackout or banding issues in my images a true magic of global shutter.
