read morePhotographer hits #1 on Reddit with Mt Fuji picture, and quickly regrets it
British photographer Kris Boorman summited Mount Fuji in 2012 and took a photograph from the top, showing the shadow cast by the giant mountain at sunrise. The image has since been used as a background for the Bing search engine and last year won a competition held by Gettty Images. A couple of days ago he posted the photo at low resolution on Reddit, and within a few hours it had garnered more than 6000 upvotes. Although this might sound like good news, Boorman quickly came to regret posting the picture. In a follow-up post on Reddit (since...

Everyone loves the look of a nice out of focus background, but it’s hard to achieve in a home studio.

Social Influence: Incorporating Social Identity Theory Into Design By Victor Yocco July 25th, 2014 PsychologyUser ExperienceUser Research 0 Comments No person is immune from the influence of the people and groups they encounter. As much as we would like to think that every thought we have is original, that every opinion we express is informed by facts alone, the truth is that we use others around us as a reference point for much of our attitudes and behavior.

Besides, what you CAN achieve with only one light source, used correctly, is quite remarkable. For this article I have delved into my back catalogue and sourced images that were shot with a single speedlight off-camera. I hate carrying tons of...
