GoPro announces Kolor acquisition
GoPro has announced its acquisition of Kolor, makers of stitching software used for spherical 360-degree videos and panoramas. Demonstrating exactly what we can expect when the two companies combine forces, the above 360-degree video has been released today, recorded with three GoPro Heros and stitched together with Kolor software. Viewed using Chrome, the video is fully interactive. With a software solution in house, it seems logical that GoPro could begin producing rigs to accommodate multiple cameras for spherical,...

read moreThese Fire-Filled Light-Painting Photos Were Shot with a Smartphone
Earlier this year, photographer Benjamin Von Wong got a call from the Chinese telecom company Huawei. They were getting ready to launch a new smartphone called the P8, and they wanted Von Wong to shoot the craziest photographs he could come up with. The rules for the shoot were: it had to be done with the phone’s new “Light Painting†feature, the model had to be surrounded by fire, and no Photoshop would be allowed in the process. Huawei’s P8 shoots long exposures using a stacking technique that astrophotographers use for...

read morePutting You Into Your Landscape Photography
Photographing the landscape is one of the oldest forms of photography, along with others like portrait and street photography. Since the advent of digital photography the possibilities of what can be done seem almost endless. It also means that photography has become more accessible, so with more people taking it up it is becoming harder to be original, and make your images your own. There are ways of creating landscapes that have your style, but it usually means throwing away a lot of what you first learn about photography. Perhaps the only...
read moreHow to do Frequency Separation Portrait Retouching in Photoshop
The goal of portrait retouching is to bring out the most naturally pleasing image of the subject. This image is the finished result of Frequency Separation Retouching in Photoshop. Portrait retouching may be accomplished using many different methods. Still, how often have you seen a portrait image that has been retouched to the point that the subject’s face looks unnatural? Even many of the software packages available for portrait retouching result in an airbrushed effect to skin tones. What if the detail and color of a portrait could...
read moreWhy You Should Make Dark Images
Street scene One of the most unexplored aspects in digital photography is the dark image. With digital, we have built-in light meters, histograms, incredible ISO capabilities, and processing programs, which make it much easier to expose our images brightly in all different lighting situations. This can have the effect of making photographers feel that they need to expose all of their images with a neutral histogram, where you can see the image perfectly well, with some information in the highlights, mid-tones, and shadows. This is often...

Thomas Cox reports. “We all see the homeless – more or less – although we often do our best to look elsewhere,†says New York photographer John Conn. “I would walk past, look at their signs and then their faces and try to match up the two – seeing if they correlate.†Framing the dual intimations of person and sign forms the basis of Conn’s 80-image...

Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
