For portrait class I had to design two collages. I went for a look that would be suitable for an 10×20 album.
I really enjoy the previsualization aspect of this assignment. Hope you like.

I recently got in the studio and shot with the Photogenic monolight. I am still learning, but I felt I came away with a few keepers. Shayla, my model, made it a lot easier to get good images. Next assignment I will use numerous lights and hopfully continue to get better.

This weeks assignment for portrait class was “window light”. Using the window as the primary lighting source, enabled me to focus my attention solely on the subject. If I would have been using a flash, I do not think I would have been able to shoot as quickly and smoothly. Using the Canon 5D, I [...]

Here is a shoot we did in portrait class the other day. We were practicing outdoor available lighting techniques. This mainlyincluded subtractive lighting with a California Sun-Bounce. It was quite intriguing how the smallest change in subject to camera position could make all the difference. As a predominately nature photographer, I find the class challenging [...]

Landscape photography with my Canon 5D has opened up new doors. Primarily I have a true 17mm wide angld field of view. This came in handy when photographing the Rockies. Secondly, the resolution and low noise is great for those times when you don’t have your tripod ready. I always try and use a tripod, [...]

It may seem strange, but some of my favorite images lately have been out of focus. Let me clarify. I have methodically selected certain lenses and purposefully thrown the image out of focus. The result, a nice painterly image with vibrant hues and intriguing shapes. I have never learned how to paint, so I feel [...]

What do you do on a Saturday night in Warrensburg? A question often asked. Well, this last weekend my girlfriend and I chose to go see the dirt track races on Highway 13, just north of Warrensburg. We had a blast! The temperture was perfect, the cars were loud, and the fans were fun too. I knew there [...]
