read more8 Tips to Push You and Your Photography Business out of a Rut
A Post By: Karthika Gupta Per US Department of Labor Statistics, May 2013 The same report, US Department of Labor Statistics, May 2013, states that the mean hourly wage is $17.88 and mean annual salary in 2013 was $37,190 – a good chunk of change for the above average hobbyist as well. Becoming a photographer has low cost of entry (entry level DSLRs with a kit lens are around $1000-$1500), low barriers to entry, (home studios or outdoor sessions) and in most cases an education or a photography related degree is not required. Often...
read moreBeautiful Dreamer: Garret Suhrie’s moonlit landscapes
I can certainly appreciate much of Suhrie’s work, particularly having spent some time looking on his website. But, I am left thinking to some degree negatively about a general formal mannerism present in so much landscape work (to his credit, there is a good deal of work that avoids this – but much that does not). I get that in a technical sense many motifs are worth doing – it seems every photographer within this ilk will at some point focus stack, run longer time exposures to create more picturesque qualities in water...
read moreBackwards Footage of Steel Wool Spinning is a Treat for the Eyes
Spinning some burning steel wool around on the end of a rope is popular as a way to create dazzling long exposure photographs. It can also be used for dazzling video as well. Photographer Richie Johnston created the video above by capturing a woman spinning steel wool in a forest and then reversing the footage. It’s titled “Ignition Sequences.†If you ever try your hand at this type of project, be mindful of the safety of you, your subjects, your environment, and your gear. “All necessary safety precautions where taken to...

18-year-old Saar Oz of Creavite created this beautiful and inspirational video for people who are just starting out in a creative field such as photography. It’s easy to become frustrated (and even give up) when you experience “the gap†between your skills and your tastes, but the important thing is to never give up. It’s based on this well-known quote from an interview with radio personality Ira Glass: Nobody tells this to people who are beginners, I wish someone told me. All of us who do creative work, we get into it because...
read moreThis Trippy Music Video Was Made with a Circular Rig of DSLRs and Clever Editing
Photographer and film director Naren Wilks created this mind-bending music video by arranging DSLRs around a circular green screen room. When the perspectives of the cameras are combined and synchronized, a “rotationally symmetric, kaleidoscopic world†is created. The song is “Fear & Delight†from the album Puppet Loosely Strung by The Correspondents. Only 5 people were involved in the production of the music video. Here’s a look at the circular room that Wilks built, and a few glimpses of production: Here’s a...
read morePhotographer Captures Rare Video of the ISS Crossing in Front of the Moon
Israel-based astrophotographer Gadi Eidelheit recently managed to capture the International Space Station crossing the moon on camera. In the video above, we see how fast the ISS appears to travel when seen by an observer here on Earth (it spends less than 1 second in front of the moon). In preparing for the shot, the photographer used a website called Heavens Above to find the exact time and location the ISS would pass overhead. Using a sky map, Eidelheit found that the station would pass in front of the moon on December 28th, 2014 if...

A Post By: James Maher When I was 15, I was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. While it has gotten much better with age, when I was younger the slightest stimuli would grab my attention. It was a tough job to keep me focused on a single task (it still is if you ask my wife). Why am I telling you this and what does this have to do with my favorite lens / focal length? I’m telling you because over the years simplifying things has become very important to me and for my photography, and this has manifested itself into a love of the...
read moreHow to Split Tone Black and White Photos in Lightroom
A Post By: Andrew S. Gibson Toning originated as a darkroom process designed to extend the longevity of black and white prints. Photographers did so using chemical toners such as sepia, selenium and gold. Toners work by removing silver from the print and replacing it with another element with a longer life span. A side effect of toning is that it adds colour. Sepia toned prints range from light yellow to deep brown, selenium is a subtle blue or purple, and gold anything from blue to deep red (if applied to a photo that has already been sepia...

Up until recently, Tao Liu was just an unknown water meter reader in China with an interest in photography. Then people started noticing his clever photos captured on sidewalks, and now Liu has become one of China’s hottest street photographers. The 32-year-old photographer captures his images in Hefei, a city in Eastern China. For the past decade, he has gotten up at 8:30am and traveled all over the city on his motorbike to read water meters for the Hefei Water Supply Company. Three years ago, he developed an interest in photography...

Here’s another case to file under “It’s a bad idea to fly camera drones too close to animalsâ€: James and Mira Raley of The Honey Badger recently tried to do a “quick flight†with their camera drone over a group of male lions. Unfortunately for them, they lost control during the flight, crashed the drone into a nearby tree, and watched helplessly as the lions pounced on the fallen “prey†with the camera still rolling. The Raleys are currently traveling from the United Arab Emirates to South Africa and documenting their...
read moreFlex is a Versatile Light Mat That Can Be Bent Into All Kinds of Shapes
The Flex is a new light solution that comes in the form of a bendable white mat covered with LED lights. It’s designed to be a flexible (literally) light source for photographers and videographers that can illuminate spaces that traditional lights may be too clunky for. The mat measures 10 inches on each side, weighs 5 ounces, and is water resistant. The small form factor allows the mat to be placed (or taped) into tight places, such as the inside of a car, boat, or plane. Inside the Flex is a pliable wire frame that allows the mat...
read moreIconic Che Guevara Photograph Brought to Life in an Experimental Short Film
The short film above, titled “Che – A Moment in Time,†was created entirely out of still photographs. Animator Bennie Melwin created the experimental short film by taking historical photographs — including the iconic “Guerrillero Heroico†photo of Che Guevara — and bringing the scenes to life through clever digital trickery. The iconic portrait was captured by Cuban photographer Alberto Korda during a memorial service for victims of the La Coubre explosion, in which a munitions ship exploded in Havana causing hundreds of...
read moreThese Dreamlike Photo Manipulations Were Created Using Only an iPhone
By day, Robert Jahns is a digital artist and art director based in Germany. By night, he’s known as nois7 on Instagram and runs a popular account boasting more than 600,000 followers. His stream of images consists of dreamlike photos that are often clearly the result of compositing, but there’s one hidden fact that sets Jahns apart: his editing is done strictly on his phone. Each of the surreal images was created by using a number of image editing apps on Jahns’ iPhone — apps like VSCOcam, ArtStudio, PhotoForge2, Snapseed, and...

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.
