Old Town Kosice
I love Europe. I love exploring old European towns with my camera.
Kosice has a great “old town” area or main street with beautiful cobblestone streets and plenty of historic buildings to point your camera towards.
This is the State Theatre.
There are at least 3 or 4 old churches and cathedrals on the main strip, the biggest [...]
Green with envy
OK, so not every building in Slovakia is a shade of yellow. This one, built for some dude name Jakob, he liked green. I agree with him.
Color me in monochrome
OK, I guess color has its purpose… but that still doesn’t change the fact that whenever I pull up the camera to my eye, how the photo will look in black and white is the first and usually last thing that flops around like a fat guy falling down a spiral staircase.
So you decide. Here [...]
Ok, so color isn’t that bad…
Ok, so maybe color isn’t that bad… but I am still concerned and somewhat amazed at this country’s deep affection (addiction) toward the color yellow. I have many more examples, but I am too tired and I have to be up early so look for installment two tomorrow.
PS I hate eating alone.
Zack Arias
Zack Arias, the incredible music photographer from Atlanta, Georgia came and spoke to a group of us crazy photography addicts in preparation for PhotoCamp Utah. His remarks were very well received. Create a niche for yourself. If 80% of the room or the industry is moving in one direction, turn around and go the other [...]
Almost Easter Snow
So it snowed on us yesterday. It started out only raining, and while friends on twitter were talking about snowballs falling from the sky in Salt Lake and other areas in Utah… it was just a slight drizzle down in Spanish Fork.
Then at about 3:00 it started. And it snow all night long. Which means [...]
flashback
I am going back through some of the photos I took while in Japan back in 2007. My wife gave me my Christmas present early that year – a Nikon D40 – and I couldn’t put it down.
It is fun to see how far I have come in terms of my knowledge of overall photographic [...]
The Jarvie Window
My friend Scott has done a very in depth review and post over on his blog about this new phenomenon (bum ba mun na num). The Jarvie Window – it is like a crazy, almost self revealing look into your soul.
some people are just so curious and wanting to explore.
and some people are all [...]
Andrew
We had a blast on the trampoline today at the Photowalking Utah Studio Lighting event in Draper, Utah. Thank you to everyone who participated!
Anger
It is all an act. Sometimes.
The other day when we were shooting for Provo creative, my very talented shutterbug pal, Doug Barlow shot this while I was helping fine tune the settings for the beauty dish. I did the black and white conversion in Adobe Lightroom. It sure is nice to have talented friends. (It [...]
Get to it
So much to do! Websites, portfolios, networking – the more I sit down and start to set up a plan, the more ideas I get and then my ADD starts to kick in and now at 11:45 – my eyes just hurt.
I started out thinking about different ways to portray the type of photography that [...]
Provo Creative Meetup
Last night I went to the Provo Creative Meetup at the new home of Provo Creative. The theme for the night was one light shooting – with an emphasis on harsh lighting and black and white photos (but my emphasis is always on black and white photos so hey – )
Anyway – it was a [...]
out to the lake
I was restless this morning and decided to go out for a little photowalk and I wound up on the west side of Utah Lake. Ice and snow pretty much covered everything.
I loved how the reeds and grasses were poking up in different places through the ice.
It was pretty desolate out there, and add that [...]
YiiP Day 4
We had a beautiful sunset today in Utah Valley – a fitting end to a rather pleasant day of returning to work.
