  • Weekly Photo Challenge: Delicate

    If you’ve ever broken any, you know that glass is delicate as in easy to break, but it is also able to be formed into delicate and evocative shapes. Here are 2 pieces of glass in a window on a square in Venice. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jhenderson/8295293347/in/photostream/lightbox/ The shape on the right is my favorite. How about you?…

  • iPhoneography Workflow Part 3: Connecting Social Media

    After (or before) transferring your photo from your device to your computer,  the next thing is to get your work out there for the world to see! At this point workflows can easily be parallel: 1. from your devices to your computer for cataloging or more editing and then on to social media 2. from your devices…

  • iPhoneography Workflow Part 2: Device to Computer Transfer

    In iPhoneography Workflow Part 1: Device to Device, we saw that the app Photo Sync will work to transfer photos from your iPhone or iPad to your computer, either Mac or PC, but that’s not what I do. In my iPhoneography workflow to transfer images via cable from devices to computer Picture folder I use something called…

  • iPhoneography App Stacking in Italy Part 5: Lessons Learned

    This is the last post in this series. After a few hours spent editing photos it’s always good to step back and focus on what you learned.  Here’s my list: Correct Early: It’s good to do the perspective correction early on in the “Set the Base” phase because you do lose some of the image though…

  • iPhoneography App Stacking in Italy Part 2: Experiment and Play

    While we “set the base” in the last entry, that’s just the starting point. Different treatments of the same image can yield radically different meanings.  Experimenting and playing can help discover a possible range of options to chose from.    Even though it makes for a longer post, I’ve made the pictures bigger today so…

  • Blue Moon Camera Delights

    In Film to Phone and Back I wrote about my return to film.  It just so happened that doing so required actual film and a battery.  In a display dominated by memory cards, my local CVS had a very small selection of mostly out of stock consumer grade films. Each box was dust covered.  Not…

  • Captured Global’s New Business Model

    The new business model behind Captured Global, a photography portal founded by outdoorsman, marketer and collector Peter Johnson (@capturedglobal) was the focus of this week’s evening lecture at Newspace Center for Photography (@NewspacePhoto) in Portland, Oregon. His new business model has definitely received some attention: “Fascinating new model for buying photographs on the web”. Stephen Perloff,…

  • Weekly Photo Challenge: Renewal

    This is another post on App Stacking Recipes similar to App Stacking for Variations.   In response to The WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge, today’s iPhone 4 image is focused on renewal. For renewal to happen we need to recognize the need for it:  “I’m in need of transformation.” Nothing says this better than decay. On a recent trip…

  • Nevada Weir and The Grace of What Might Be Presented

    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. Nevada’s  experiences as an Outward Bound instructor…
