It’s no secret that photographers are sometimes treated as criminals for doing nothing more than taking pictures. This video will make you laugh, as well as make photographer criminalization look pretty stupid.
It’s about Duane Kerzik, who was arrested for taking pictures at Penn station. For their photo contest no less. I’m glad I’m not on the PR team for Amtrak, because it looks like their on a one way rail to stupidity. I could say more, but instead, just watch the video.
Update: Sorry to our non US readers. I realized that this Hulu video is not available outside the US. Hopefully it will show up on other sites soon… Gav
This is my masterpiece of the week. It’s from last Sunday’s drive and was taken overlooking the Columbia river just off Manilla Creek Road. (Here’s the coordinates on the map). You can click the picture for a bigger view.
I did this with two, three shot HDR images of the scene stitched together as a panorama. The view was amazing. We stopped here earlier in the day, so I knew it had potential. We moved on, but at sunset came back for the shoot.
It was late Sunday night on the way home from bible study at my brothers house near Coulee City. I was looking west towards Waterville and there were so many stars. They live in the country, so the only artificial lights are on the horizon.
This was taken with my new Canon 5D MK II. This won’t mean much to non photo geeks, but I shot it at ISO 6400, Sigma 15mm Fisheye lens @ f2.8 exposed for 13 seconds and cleaned with neat image: The heavens delare the glory of God… Gav
Planning an HDR workshop in Washington. Also thinking about going to Ireland next winter. Email Gavin you have thoughts on Ireland, or are interested in attending the workshop.
