We are pleased to announce the publication of a new 220 page eBook, Finding Visual Expression II. This eBook is a sister publication to the original Finding Visual Expression volume, and expands the number of subject areas covered to 30 in total (15 per eBook). Finding Visual Expression II is designed as a photographic resource which covers fifteen new subject areas.
A sample page from each topical area is illustrated in this article. The eBook’s Table of Contents is also featured in one of the images in this announcement article.
Purging the past can be a daunting task when we start to review old photography files in an attempt to free up hard drive space. For the past number of months I’ve been spending a lot of time on my office computer system going back through old files looking for images that I can consider for some eBooks that I have under development.
Virtually everyone who has been out with their camera, and around other photographers, has heard someone say that they’ll ‘fix it in post’ when they get home. We may have even used those words personally.
Semantics can be extremely important in life as they guide our behaviour, and shape our expectations. The purpose of this article is to encourage readers to reframe the work they do with post processing… and move past the concept of ‘fix it in post’.
Accomplishment in life can be found in a wide range of areas including family, volunteerism, creativity, career and business to name a few. It is common to hold up the accomplishments of others as sources of inspiration or motivation for our own goals and dreams. Sometimes our adulation of others is misguided.
This article discusses some basic auto focus considerations and was prompted by a few emails that I recently received from readers. Some of these emails had questions that were specific to the OM-1. Since I have never used this camera, and have no plans to do any kind of review on it, I’m unable to comment specifically on that model.
It feels almost surreal to think that January 1, 2024 will mark the start of year 10 of this photography website. It has been a very interesting journey to say the least. We’ve certainly grown our subscriber base over the years, and it’s now quite possible that many of our newer subscribers may not be aware of what led to the creation of this website.
This article provides some background on how this website came to be, as well as discussing our plans for year 10 and beyond.
The importance of shutter speed is something that we can sometimes undervalue by attempting to use ISO values that are too low when creating photographs. We may read articles or view videos that are adamant that we should always shoot at low ISO values. While this can be appropriate in specific situations, using a low ISO and sacrificing shutter speed as a trade-off, can be problematic.
The concept of selfishness is something that we can interpret in different ways depending on our conditioning and belief system. Often selfishness is judged negatively. One of the ways we can view selfishness is as a course of behaviour that occurs when someone is acting for their own benefit to the disadvantage of all others.
Unfortunately for readers who value transparency with the online content that they consume, web deception is continuing unabated. This article shares wording from a solicitation that I recently received via email. I have highlighted in bold face an egregious attempt at web deception contained in this most recent solicitation.
This website celebrates the joy of photography and features a wide range of photographic subject matter. The content is designed to appeal to a wide range of people interested in photography. The website also provides information to help readers increase their level of photographic freedom.
