Sony A6000 Mirrorless Camera Review and Example Images
A Post By: Gavin Hardcastle If the Sony A7R is a champion heavyweight in its prime, the Sony A6000 is the scrappy younger brother with a leaner frame, faster feet and a few tricks up its sleeve that big brother hasn’t bothered to learn. Having spent almost a year with the A7R as my main camera, I’ve become very familiar with the current Sony Alpha system, so I hit the ground running with the A6000. Here is my Sony A6000 review along with a load of example images from my most recent road trip. For this shot I used my Canon 24-105mm with...

In this article let’s look at some dos and don’ts to take your moon shots from snapshot to artwork. To begin, the first and most important DON’T is: Don’t assume that photographing the moon is...
read moreBridal Photos On a Burning Couch Make a Statement About Divorce Culture
It just started as a cool idea. New Zealand photographer Tom Hollow had a broken couch he needed to get rid of, and so he decided to burn it and take pictures. Then he decided to put a bride on it because, in his words, it “would look cooler with a bride.†It wasn’t until after the shoot that he realized the images fit a particular storyline quite well: divorce. Speaking with friend and old co-worker Kenny Coverstone at Fstoppers, Hollow explains the culture shock surrounding divorce that he experienced when he moved to the US,...

Here’s a simple photo idea that photographer Nick Fancher came up with for the folks over at Digital Photography School. If you wanna add some holiday flair to your portrait sessions this Christmas season on the cheap, try shooting through a $5 set of Christmas lights. The idea is really quite simple.

You can see the setup in the diagram below. Shooting at...
read moreHack Combines Graphing Calculator and Game Boy Camera to Create a Selfie-Snapping Machine
Christopher Mitchell recently breathed some photographic life into a pice of technology many of us probably have languishing away in some drawer. With the help of an Arduino board, he’s found a way to Frankenstein a Texas Instruments graphing calculator and Game Boy Camera into the ArTICam: a 128–128 grayscale selfie machine. Since the Game Boy Camera and Texas Instruments graphing calculator weren’t exactly designed to work with one another, Mitchell used an Arduino board and ready-made code to get the two to play together...
read moreGame of Thrones Season 1 Poster Recreated with Huge Camera Lenses Instead of Swords
One afternoon, while hanging out with his coworkers at Bozeman Camera, photographer Tanner Johnson and his friend Beau Larson had an idea: they decided to recreate the Game of Thrones Season 1 poster with camera gear instead of swords. From the Iron Throne to the Stark family’s sword ‘Ice,’ all of the sharp pointing things used to kill people were replaced with huge lenses to create an awesome photographic version. As you can probably tell from looking at it — and given the sheer amount of gear that would be required to create...

This is going to be a VERY long year, and we have J.J. Abrams to blame. Since its release on Friday, the trailer for Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens has swept across the Internet like a wildfire.

This viral sensation is no exception, and we have our first viral attempt thanks to LEGO fanatic Snooperking, who recreated the entire trailer from start to finish using stop motion animation....

read more7 Tips for Better Beach Photography
A Post By: Jim Hamel The beach can be a great place for photography. You are in a scenic environment. You typically have friends or family members with you. You are usually there on nice days. All these can contribute to great photographs. But the degree of photography problems you will face on the beach might surprise you. Exposure can be tricky given the bright environment. Often, there is nothing but sand, so the composition can be dull. And of course there are elements like sand and salt-water that do not mix well with electronics. So I...
read moreVideo: How to Capture Astrophotography Images Without a Star Tracker
In astrophotography, a star tracker is a piece of gear that compensates for the Earth’s rotation so you can take sharp long exposure photographs of the night sky. Unfortunately, not everyone can get their hands on one of these, and so we’ve dug up this awesome tutorial by astrophotographer Forrest Tanaka on how to capture impressive astrophotography images without a star tracker.

An ongoing project that currently has a part one and part two, Bradshaw’s Golden Years portraits celebrate the weekend warrior, and more specifically the senior citizen weekend warrior.

The most poignant revelations often come at the most unlikely of times. That’s what happen to photographer Elly Heise, who created the touching project #DaughterDoesMyMakeup, a series of portraits of mothers sporting makeup their young daughters did for them. While the original plan for the series was to simply capture a “fresh perspective on beauty,†as she explained to Bored Panda, the series ended up leading Heise to question the true definition of beauty. This project, says Heise, is for anyone who feels the need to follow...
read moreTroubling FAA Report Shows Drone-Related Air Traffic Incidents are On the Rise
A new FAA report is confirming what we imagine many responsible camera drone enthusiasts fear: the number of idiotic drone pilots is on the rise, and they’re threatening to ruin it for everyone or, far worse, cause a full-scale air disaster. The report was released Wednesday in response to requests by news organizations like The Washington Post, and it describes drone-related air traffic incidents reported by air traffic controllers since mid-2014. While the list (downloadable as a spreadsheet from the New York Times) doesn’t cover...

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.
