Concept Photography - Integrity


Some concept words are hard to illustrate. Think of integrity, what picture pops into your head? Nothing. I did a quick Google search, and found little in the way of illustration. This picture peaked my interest and so I grabbed my dictionaries and found the word. I borrowed these empty glasses and a desk lamp. in all the shot took about 5 minutes, with just a little post-production work.
Here's the original straight from the camera:
I thought that many of you have digicams, or a single lens camera that is close to a dSLR. So I took out the little Nikon L3 and tried it out. Here's the result:

Both cameras will give very similar results, if you know what the settings do.

Happy shooting until next time.

The Kinkade Project


I have often admired Kinkade's work. He is said to be the master of light. his paintings are very realistic, but have a soft warm golden glow about the lights.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I would like to photograph a church, or a house and without a great deal of post-editing, make it glow like a Kinkade painting.
As of yet, I do not have a building, a location or even a time frame. I recently listened to a podcast from an architecture photographer and it was interesting to note that he waits until the opportune time to photograph. Sometimes he waits a year or two for the landscaping to fill in and look mature, or he waits until the leaves are in full color in the autumn, or for just a fresh fallen snow. Taking his cue in hand, I have no real time frame for this, just an idea and I am on the lookout for the suitable location.
