Doing some testing on home studio lights. The backgrounds are a shower curtain and a big piece of black fabric. Using two strobes and a reflector.

Great work!
 
shooters... i have found my inspiration for 2015

I also poll the class at the same time I am telling them this, asking them how many people have kept a diary. I usually get a fair number, half to 2/3rds, and as I continue to tell them, rattling off the list of what they shouldn’t photograph, I ask by a show of hands how many people have attempted to write a poem even if they never showed anyone. Then I continue with the list and return for the last question - How many have written a love letter or a letter home? I then tell them that whatever it is they were trying to express in their diary, or poem, or love letter or letter home, is what their photographs should be about. I doubt whether they were writing about old people or Chinatown or children playing in the park. At least I hope not.

this one just needed it's own post...

Worked asked me to cover the security desk for an hour. I was sitting there and all of a sudden people stopped right in front of the building and are looking towards the corner. I went out to check and a guy is getting tazed. I called up and asked my friend to bring my camera down.

Here's the rest...

Ever go back through pics and decide the one next to the one that you published actually looks better? That's what happened here. This is a variation of the one they showed on the KTLA news a couple of times last week. this one is my desktop wallpaper.

All the time! Editing is a tough process. Usually I'll let photos sit in the camera for a few days before I start looking. It's an attempt to try to clear my head of any preconceived notions I may have had about a shot while it was being taken. This is one of the reasons I still like shooting film. It forces you to wait.

What do you use for editing?
 
my favorite picture I have ever taken. Kings vs. Leafs Jan 12 2015. Taken with my totally non-professional camera from my seat, through the glass. Caught it at just the right moment. An old Konica camera from the late 90s. EDIT: Camera model is Konica/Minolta DiMage Z6. 35mm-420mm lens (I don't even really know what that means!) I have had someone offer me a lot of money for this camera in the past. Never selling.

Lightroom 5 has a LOT of updates. You should upgrade! They have Lightroom and Photoshop available as a package in the cloud for a few bucks a month.

I won the entire Adobe package for a year and all I use is Lightroom and Photoshop. If you are student or a teacher you can get it even cheaper.
