5 Steps to Rock the Brenizer Method

What is the Brenizer Method? The Brenizer Method is named after wedding photographer, Ryan Brenizer. He didn’t invent the method but instead made it popular by using it with his wedding clients, and teaching others how to do it as well. For those who have been around photography for a while, you will recognize the process. Photographers have been stitching images together to create panoramas for decades. However, Photoshop and similar software have now made this method extremely simple for you. Advantages of using the Brenizer Method...

Firefighters Try To Shoot Down Camera Drone with Their Hoses

Angry (and possibly drunk) neighbors aren’t the only ones attacking camera drones these days. Yesterday, a man named John Thompson took his drone to a structure fire in New York to capture some aerial shots of the fire company battling the blaze. 12-minutes into the flight, the firefighters on the ground suddenly began trying to shoot the drone out of the sky with water from their high-pressured fire hoses. Here’s what the incident was like from the drone’s point of view: “This is real misconduct on their part and very...

Idiot Box: Portraits of Kids with Eyes Glued to a TV

In any given week, the average US child will watch more than a day’s worth of TV. This subject is the focus of a new photo series by photographer Donna Stevens called Idiot Box. It’s a set of portraits showing blank expressions on kids faces as they watch television in a dimly-lit room. “TV is just one of the ever present Black Mirrors through which we negotiate our lives today,” the Australian photographer tells PetaPixel. “Idiot Box hopes to explore the darker side of our love for technology.” “Should we exhibit more...

Testing the Image Quality of the Yongnuo 35mm f/2 for Canon EF

Testing the Image Quality of the Yongnuo 35mm f/2 for Canon EF

Here’s a look at the optical quality of the Yongnuo 35mm f/2 for Canon EF. There’s only so much that can be tested at home without fancy gear (MTF charts and the like) so I did a few tests that gauge common aesthetic qualities, using techniques that are often recommended for testing at home. It’s not super scientific, but it does give some further input on the lens and what you might expect. And all tests were done as compared to the Canon 35mm f/2 lens — each shot was taken on a sturdy tripod, and all settings were kept the...

The Seawolf is to Water as Camera Drones Are to Air

Camera drones are all the rage today, but what if you want to take your camera down into water instead of up into the air? That’s where the Seawolf comes in. Created by the company TTRobotix, the Seawolf is a remote control submarine that’s designed to carry a small camera for underwater photos and videos. The 7.7 kilogram (~17 pound), 70cm long sub can dive down to a depth of 8 meters and features a mounting point on the front that can fit a GoPro HERO3 or HERO4 action camera. The 5-blade brass propellers allow the sub to travel...

$1,350 Camera Drone Whacked Out of the Air by an Angry Neighbor

The folks over at Lucky7Drones were testing out their $1,350 DJI Phantom 3 camera drone this week when an angry neighbor walked up and whacked the drone out of the air with a shirt, breaking the 4K camera and three of the props. Luckily for the drone operators, the whole incident was captured on camera. In a blog post, the drone owners write that the “extremely inebriated” neighbor actually committed a felony by damaging their drone since it’s valued at over $500 (in California anything over $900 is felony vandalism). The...

Let’s look at a few street photography images from around the world and see if we can’t find similarities, as well as differences between them all. I got carried away selecting images for this collection because I found the inter-connections intriguing and it inspired me. I hope you can see it too.

The High Cost of Suing for Copyright Infringements

If you’re wondering why copyright infringement is so widespread on the Web and why wealthy artists like Richard Prince can test the boundaries of copyright law without much worry, consider this: by the time photographer Daniel Morel won $1.2 million in 2013 after a 5-year copyright battle, his law firm had racked up a staggering $2.5 million in legal fees and costs — most of which won’t be paid.PDN has published an eye-opening look into the financial figures involved in this case, and the takeaway is concerning for photographers....
