Some really amazing conversations about Photo Critiquing, Nude Images and social media and I have the honor of those conversations being on my posts… Would love to hear others points of view also.. Here are the links and a new image to cut up so we all can learn… Critiques – We really need more negative ones?https://plus.google.com/108542426628002931624/posts/ZQGF51FP9Xc Nudity and Social Media?https://plus.google.com/108542426628002931624/posts/jiY4wZNAyqJ And my final Re-edit of tonight….. Feel free to be honest – Positive or Negative…. It's ok with me….. and you will feel better in the morning that you did not blow smoke up my keester…. Us photographers need to feel comfortable getting both good and bad reviews of our work… Ali below is a beautiful girl… I can always use tips to make her look even better….

Sharing Nude Images – What is your point of view?
http://500px.com/photo/1755961 Ah a way to share nude images…. sadly you need to go to 500px to see it… but thats not a bad thing…. I am interested in peoples opinion on this shot thou… its toned down a bit with more mood and less processing…. Please take a second to go take a look and drop a note here or on 500px…. Also if you are using a mobile device can you let me know how many steps this really is and if you can see the image easily or at all…. I am going to be doing a write up on sharing outside of G+ for content that is not supported here and need some suggestions from everyone on how best you have found to do it? Drop your suggestions here….. I want to take into consideration those who do not want to see nudity and also those who do….

Good wrap up of features released this week on G+
Good wrap up of features released this week on G+ Reshared post from +Matt Waddell "8 is great." Google+ has been in field trial for just over 8 weeks, and every day the team is honored, humbled and energized by your feedback. So from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Seriously. Keep letting us know how we're doing, and we'll keep working to make Google+ even better. 8 is also the number of features we've launched since Monday, so I figured I'd post a quick week in review. Have a gr8 weekend everyone! (Cheesy, I know 😉 1. The new +1 button for websites lets you share web pages with your circles. (http://goo.gl/jlBBf) 2. You can now see all the photos you're tagged in on a single page. (http://goo.gl/D0g6w) 3. When you're viewing a photo album, you can now see who else it's shared with. (http://goo.gl/KXpoj) 4. You can now re-share posts from the Google+ Android app (http://goo.gl/MxgR1) 5. You'll now see a notification when someone you've invited joins Google+. (http://goo.gl/SeuGC) 6. You can now Ignore people — for those times when you're not interested in what a (well-intentioned) person is sharing. (http://goo.gl/n8GhR) 7. Add to circle notifications now […]

Question:
If you were presented with the ability to be augmented to increase all your physical and mental abilities would you do it? Based on the release of the new Video Game – Dues Ex – Human Revolution http://deusex.com Story: You play Adam Jensen, an ex-SWAT specialist who's been handpicked to oversee the defensive needs of one of America's most experimental biotechnology firms. Your job is to safeguard company secrets, but when a black ops team breaks in and kills the very scientists you were hired to protect, everything you thought you knew about your job changes Badly wounded during the attack, you have no choice but to become mechanically augmented and you soon find yourself chasing down leads all over the world, never knowing who you can trust. At a time when scientific advancements are turning athletes, soldiers and spies into super enhanced beings, someone is working very hard to ensure mankind's evolution follows a particular path. You need to discover where that path lies. Because when all is said and done, the decisions you take, and the choices you make, will be the only things that can change it. Question: If you were presented with the same options but […]

Has anyone truly figured out how these two things are related to eachother?
As in are new followers really shows in the daily count of circles etc? Is sharing truly that you have been circled? G+ likes to confuse me when I am tired and have been up till 3am the night before…. I think it does it on purpose….. View this post on Google+

Now thats lighting……
Now thats lighting…… Reshared post from +mark daughn The light coming thru the screen was the main light for the scene, I filled with a dynalite strobe with about 50 ws out of a 45 inch umbrella from about 15 feet away. The fill was just enough to hold the touch of detail in shadows. I think what makes this image and most images work is the model's expression, the look in her eyes, the tilt of her head, all the things that a great rapport with the model brings to the table and last but not least is the great skill of the models I am lucky enough to work with. Shot for Mystique Magazine. View this post on Google+

And yet another day with even more G+ features added
thanks +Jon Moon Reshared post from +Jon Moon See who else the photo album is shared with! #googleplusupdate Oh, hello there! I'm +Jon Moon and I’m an engineer on Google+ photos. You may have noticed that when someone posts something in your stream, you can see who it was shared with. If you look at the top of the post you'll see either Public, Extended circles, or Limited, and clicking on that shows you more details. (More info here: goo.gl/Y0PSM) Today we are introducing the same feature for photo albums, so that you can comment on photos knowing who will be able to see your brilliant, witty, clever remarks. Hooray! This is just one of the many ways we are working to improve your photos experience on Google+. Thanks and we look forward to your feedback! View this post on Google+

Have to say this is a great idea
why not give back via the G+ community…and our photography… Hit the original link below to comment: https://plus.google.com/116043947632177598920/posts/MyWwZMvGBA1 +Brian Rose not sure if you have seen this yet.. Reshared post from +Mike Spinak Dear Google+ community, Let's collectively make a photography book as a charity fundraiser. Starting right here, right now. I propose: • A book of photographs by the people reading this • One or a few shots by each participant• Printed through Blurb Books, or a similar service• Print on-demand and automated order fulfillment, as people order• All profits go directly to charity Photographers among us who want to participate can each offer to contribute one or a few of our best pictures to the book. Then, I'll narrow down the choices to a manageable number, and final selects will be chosen by vote by people reading this. We'll also choose which charity to support, and the name of the book, by vote. We'll need someone to design the book. I can't do this – I don't have the book design skills to do a good job, but I know a lot of you do. I can contribute pictures, and write text. Hopefully, someone will volunteer to handle […]
