Life is Still Hectic… Summer of 2010

August 10th, 2010

Well… I made it to north Idaho. I was offline completely for about a week, so I’m slowly getting back up to speed with everything as we settle into our new home. I should be getting back to the regular posts very soon — but in the meantime, here’s a quick rundown on my recent [...]



Life is Hectic… Summer of 2010

July 26th, 2010

I’ve been awfully quiet on my blogs and social media accounts over the last few weeks — but I’m not just being lazy. Most of you probably don’t give a hoot one way or another, but for those who are interested, here’s what I’ve been up to lately… At the end of June, my wife [...]



Photographer and Artist Notification Lists

July 13th, 2010

I’ve mentioned this a few times in the past, but this is an update to those posts. My local printer also runs a couple of notification lists for artists and photographers, and the sign-up location for them has moved. There is now a single page that has two forms: one for photographers, and one for [...]



Join the Epic Edits Facebook Fan Club

June 13th, 2010

Epic EditsPromote Your Page Too Alright… I FINALLY got this thing going after a long period of procrastination. Epic Edits is officially on Facebook. I’ve been on Facebook for quite a while with my personal profile, but I’m just not getting around to making a page for Epic Edits. I’m still figuring out how to [...]



You Have to Hand It To Olympus…

June 10th, 2010

I just now came across this video from Olympus, but it looks like it’s been out there for several weeks. Of course, the whole thing is a big ad for the Olympus PEN camera, but it’s downright genius. The fact that they printed out 355 (very large) photos for the stop-action video is impressive.



Reminder for the “Analog” Flickr Challenge

June 6th, 2010

Just a heads-up for anybody interested in participating in the current Flickr Challenge — I’ll be choosing the images for display this coming Tuesday evening. So that’s about 2 days to get your best analog shots in the pool and tagged with “ee-analog”. Once again, my favorite photo will get to choose the next topic.



Elliott Erwitt Answers My Questions

June 3rd, 2010

We recently started a discussion around the question “Why is Street Photography Dominated by Black and White?” and we had some great comments from the readers. Shortly thereafter, I got an email from the folks at TeNeues with regard to the “Elliot Erwitt Photo Caption Contest” I had talked about. They said that they would [...]



Check Out My Interview on PetaPixel

June 1st, 2010

If you want to know a little more about me, head over to PetaPixel and read through my recent interview with them. The questions presented were quite compelling and I had a good time doing the interview. We chatted about everything from my background, to the origins of this blog, to post-processing, to my darkroom, [...]



Bring the Bicycle Portraits Project to Life

May 22nd, 2010

Bicycle Portraits from Bicycle Portraits on Vimeo. This is great on so many levels. Stan Engelbrecht and Nic Grobler recently started a project investigating South African bicycle culture and the lack of cyclist commuters out there on our roads. They want to raise the funds to turn this project into a self-published full-color hard-cover photographic [...]

First of all, a big thanks to Jill for offering up some great prizes from her shop! By the response we had with this contest, it was a big success. Another big thanks goes out to all of you participants — I was so glad to see everybody posting photos and commenting about Jill’s products. [...]
