More sexy? Less Sexy? Do you care? Should I turn into a landscape photographer? 🙂 I know one thing – HDR on people is sort of horrific – Or I will be doing a set called zombies and post them… View this post on Google+

Nexus 7 Case Review – For what it is worth for a person that could open my Nexus 7 box with no issues and also is not a tech pundit…. ROOCASE Multi-Angle Vegan Leather Folio Case Cover for Google Nexus 7 Tablet (RC-NEXUS7-MA-BK)http://amzn.to/QbLfYF$14.95 Free Shipping with PRIME on Amazon Pro's:Really well made caseFeels expensiveNice options to include Magnetic On and Off when openingStylus Holder Con's:No portrait direction standEdges on top and bottm seem to be just a bit too close to easily grab the notifications are and the home button areas. It is more a peeve than a huge issue. The other options from them is this: ROOCASE Dual-View Leather Case Cover for Google Nexus 7 Tablet (RC-NEXUS7-DV-BK)http://amzn.to/M33deG$29.95 – No free shipping 🙁 with PRIME I might end up moving to this since you can use it in the "stand in both Portrait and Landscape. We will see – this is going to try to replace my Paper & Pen – In the end the pad of paper is nice because I just do not need to remember to charge it and right now the 7 sure seems to eat battery over the course of the day. I will report back when […]
I have been lucky enough to meet some very cool people that happen to also be models in the 8 years I have been shooting… I should probably thank them all more for putting up with me while I learned to be a better photographer. That said on Monday I finally scheduled a totally new model for a shoot – 2 hours will tell me if I remember anything about shooting or lighting or metering… it has been months since I shot last.. so my master plan is to not screw up too badly… :) View this post on Google+

I just cannot keep up with technology anymore.I use Windows Live Mesh everyday and it works really good for a free service. I sync many folders and thousands of files. I would assume this is Microsofts way of killing Live Mesh… Time to try it out… https://apps.live.com/skydrive/app/9a65e47d-606a-4816-a246-90f54bf7a3ea View this post on Google+
There are some nice Gradients in there….. I really need to start taking advantage of Adobe Free Training videos….. The Gradient Map Adjustment layer has over 35 new presets to emulate traditional darkroom techniques for toning and split-toning photographs. Learn how to load and apply gradient maps to a single image as well as how to download and use Julieanne’s template to quickly see what each preset would look like on your own photograph through the magic of Smart Objects. The files she references can be found here. http://adobe.ly/OBIOdz http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-complete-picture-with-julieanne-kost/photographic-toning-presets-in-photoshop-cs6/ This post has been reshared 1 times on Google+ View this post on Google+
Ok this is more prep than I see myself doing – but I assume that because I do not take photos full time.. if I did I would do it like this and get those once in a lifetime shots… the least I can do is reshare it… http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2167595/Stunning-image-shows-boy-watching-solar-eclipse–taken-1-5-miles-away.html A Colorado based photographer – Maybe +Colby Brown knows her? Reshared post from +Yonatan Zunger This is an amazing photo. One of those that looks like it couldn't possibly be real. (Has it ever occurred to you how spectacularly fortunate we are to live on a planet which can have total eclipses? It requires that the apparent size of the Moon and the apparent size of the Sun match to within a few percent, so that the Moon can hide the body of the Sun and reveal its corona alone. The coincidence required is so extraordinary that I doubt that one planet out of a thousand has it. Even if planets are commonplace, this is rare and beautiful. If there are aliens travelling our cosmos, then a solar eclipse may be the best place to find them: it's something you might come a long way to see. « Ça vaut le voyage, » as the Michelin […]

*So I need some help here Photoshop, Lightroom and* +Nik Software pro's and users or anyone who has see this behavior.. I have been dealing with what must be a workflow issue on my part but for the life of me cannot find a combo of settings that can resolve it… The attached image is a screenshot of a image I was playing with in CS6 – the open windows is NIK's Viveza 2 with no changes made…everything is at 0% – look at the color difference – this cannot be normal as when you hit OK – the image in CS6 does not turn into the nice image in the Nik software window it just looks the same – and if i do tweak it – the results never match. Is this a color space issue in CS6? a problem I need to talk to NIK about? Time to call upon the power of greyskull (G+) and get this resolved as I am at my end with it… The main image is a NEF opened from Lightroom then the NIK plugin was opened from CS6. All running on WIN7 If you need more specific please just ask… Time to name drop: +Trey Ratcliff +Scott Kelby +Matt […]
