“My aim was to capture photos of BMX rider Varo Hernandez in a flour environment,” explains Predrag.

And he did just that, spectacularly so, using a Lumia 1020 and Profoto studio lights.

“Our location was specially built for this purpose. For me as a professional photographer, [it] was surprising how Nokia managed [the] quality of the captured DNG files,” Pedrag added.

The result was amazing, as you can see.”

As the bike wheel spins and bunny-hops into the air and through white plumes of flour, Predrag and the Lumia 1020 capture the action.

As you’d expect, using flour in a photo shoot can get messy. Not just for Varo on the bike, but for Predrag, too, who went to great lengths to get the perfect shot – including lying down in mounds of flour.
