Must Read – Rangefinder Magazine
We all have our periodicals that we subscribe to, and while differences of opinion abound about which ones are the “best” ones out there, there is always good content available. One that I subscribe to is “Rangefinder Magazine”, which has great reads on up and coming artists, good food for thought, and other items of interest on a regular basis. Their most recent issue (April 2010), had an article that also boils down well for blog posting, so today, a nod goes out to Rangefinder magazine, particularly Alice B. Miller for the article: Marketing Mojo: 12 Ways to Land Your … Continue reading
The Life of a Lens
Yesterday we looked at things to consider when getting a new camera body…while the idea is all well and good, lenses are another story, and since we are likely to invest more in glass than in cameras (Have you seen the costs of some of the really good glass lately?), the life of a lens is something worth considering. In all things technology-related, there is a principle called Moore’s Law which states that technology will advance at a rate of re-doubling roughly every two years. While this principle was developed primarily for computers, we can draw similar analogies for digital … Continue reading
How To Make Your Pictures Sing!
While recently listening to This Week in Tech (a great podcast, and I highly recommend it), the show host, Leo Laporte, made an interesting observation about the advancement of technology. He was musing about the changes that have happened in audio consumption. We listen to much of our music in iPods and portable music players, when not too long ago, we were confined to a certain space. To that end, he noted that the technology of audio in those days revolved around things like the number of amps, tweeters and woofers, quadraphonics, decibels, and much of that technical information. We … Continue reading
Repost: Quality versus Quantity
I’ve got a few software reviews up my sleeve for both Windows and mac, but ratehr than rush them out the door prematurely, I’d rather postpone that material in the interests of sharing some rather thought-provoking content on the question of quality versus quantity. I’d written this post before, and the first publication got a few interesting email responses – so we’ll see if the debate is still holding true. Tell me what you think: Does quality trump quantity or vice versa? Here’s my take: “Okay, I’m done.” “That’s it? You’ve only been shooting for ten minutes!” “Yep, got about … Continue reading
Another Magazine Article!
Well, I completely lost track of the week and did not get the weekly podcast recorded in time for publication today. So, while I could have gone with the alliterative “Forgetful Friday” blog title, I figured that would have been a little too on the nose. So, instead, I’ll share the exciting news that the latest issue of PhotographyBB magazine has been published. Dave Seeram, editor-in-chief, announced it a few days ago on the website, so do stop over and download the latest article now. Make sure you take a peek at the article Photography Food for Thought (pgs 19-22), … Continue reading
Holiday Photography…
I recently agreed to put together an article for the December issue of the PhotographyBB magazine on “How to Shoot the Holidays”. With the compilation of that nearing completion, I subsequently got an email from Towner Jones Photography to write a guest post over at his blog! Egad! A guest post?!?! Never been asked that before! I was floored. About all I could muddle out was “Well..uuh, I am writing an article for a free online magazine…would that work?” Again, I was floored when he said that’d be great! You could have knocked me over with a feather! So, my … Continue reading
