    Photo essays are usually a series of pictures related by a theme or a place or a subject. I’ve experimented with collapsing the series into a collage. There are many tools that you can use for this. Fuzel Pro, Frametastic and Diptic are all great for this.  For my purposes, I’ve used Diptic for a…

    I never expected to see daffodils formed in wrought iron. The soft supple saturated yellow petals with tender folds that last a week seemed beyond replication by something so solid, gray, burning red hot then stiffly cold and lasting as wrought iron. But on my morning neighborhood run, iPhone in hand for mobile photography, I…

    Her words have been reverberating in my head for a couple of weeks now. “Be Biased“ I heard her talk, “Translating Science into Poetry“, at the first Write the Docs conference earlier this month. She did the unpredictable – applied principles from poetry to science. Daniya Kamran was her name.  I attended the conference to deliver Sketchnotes: Communicating Complex Ideas…

    A recent post on Understanding the Differences Between Type and Lettering by Joseph Alessio (@alessio_joseph) on Smashing Magazine shared by The Sketchnote Army (@sketchnotearmy) plus Mike Rohde‘s (@rohdesign) illustration of sketchnote type in his book The Sketchnote Handbook got me noticing letters. Sunshine Gardens was the first font to piqué my interest. Dinner at Steakout, a…

    Austin Kleon‘s recommended reading list in his book Steal Like an Artist continues to yield real gems.  Lynda Barry’s What It Is is the first from Austin’s list that I read and I loved it.  Sketchnotes by Mike Rohde is next on the list. Here’s my sketchnote of what resonates with me from Mike’s book (plain…

    Recently, I was watching an Adobe Lightroom 4 video called “Lightroom 4 and Nevada Weir” because I’m trying to decide whether to use Aperture or Lightroom in my workflow to corral and tag photos to find the version I want later.  Fortunately, I learned something entirely different from that video.
