- Teal and Orange – Hollywood, Please Stop the Madness. Куча фотографов гоняется за мифическим «киношным» цветом, в то время как современный киношный свет превратился вообще не знамо во что.
Those of you who watch a lot of Hollywood movies may have noticed a certain trend that has consumed the industry in the last few years. It is one of the most insidious and heinous practices that has ever overwhelmed the industry. Am I talking about the lack of good scripts?

No, I am talking about something much more dangerous, much deadlier to the health of cinema.
- Вынос мозга тилт-шифтом: «гиперфокальное» расстояние. Алексей Тутубалин прав на все 100% — полный вынос мозга. С гарантией.
На картинке изображен процесс фотодрочерства, если кто вдруг не понял. Моя предыдущая попытка вынести фотографам мозг полностью удалась. Мозг вынесен до такой степени, что комментариев практически не поступило, хотя я точно знаю, что тилт-шифты (включая и рассмотренный 24-мм) используют многие из читателей и в теории эти таблицы должны быть им интересны, хотя они еще и не понимают как.

Use a snoot – In these shots I used a snooted strobe to create highlights without casting light on the background. A snoot is any conical shaped tunnel to confine the light beam for a narrow point of focus. It doesn’t have to be fancy. I use the velcro pocket separators from my camera bag. I know photographers who use cardboard cereal boxes to make DIY snoots.
- A ‘must see’ list of movies for photography lovers. Любите фотографию? Тогда непременно посмотрите эти фильмы. Пользуясь случаем хочу обратить ваше внимание на этот свеженький блог. Меньше двух месяцев ему.
As photographers deal with ‘composing’ beautiful visual stuff, they must be in a permanent search of something new – of a new experience for their brain, through the eyes. A good photographer always seeks for good photos, good paintings, colors, shapes, everything to keep his inspiration going.
