Dreamboat Photography

There’s one thing about doing what we do and that’s being thrown challenges.

Different textures, surfaces, materials and the list goes on, gives photographers a myriad of challenges.

One such for us recently was Noosa’s brand new Dreamboat. Made of deep red mahogany and coated with 13 layers of varnish, this beauty truly glistened.

It’s only been cruising the river and canals of Noosa for the last 3 months and already photographers are booking it for a fun day out.

A polariser won’t always get rid of the reflections from such a shiny surface as the Dreamboat but it will help. Placement of boat to the angle of light is the best answer. And while you want the sun out to make the water jets glisten, the sun also makes the timber reflections stronger.

Ah another day in the office of a photographer.

Shiny surfaces, such as timber can cause all sorts of challenges for photographers.
