Swirling City, 2011 by Gavin Seim. From the bridge, Twin Cities MN. Time Exposure.
This was about a year ago now, during our Fall 2010 road trip and my visit to the Twin Cities to teach an HDR workshop. I was walking with my group downtown, crossing over a bridge, the name of which escapes me. It’s big city here. industry and concrete. But flowing water always mesmerizes me. I took my time setting up, feeling that if I hurried I would get little more than a snapshot. In the end my effort paid off in this long exposure just between St. Paul and Minneapolis. The structures of the city meeting with the awesome power of the water and doing a dance right in front of my lens.
Release Details: Prints Coming Soon… Contact Gavin for details.

With the introduction of my new LR Ninja video training workshops comes LR training for all levels, Ninja training, if you will. One of the best parts is that you can get LR Essentials, the entire first workshop for just $10. Even if you already use LR, you’ll want this first workshop because there’s something for everyone. Here’s how it works….
How it to get a LR Ninja video workshop for ONLY $10…
The best thing for Seim Effects users can do to help out is to spread the word. That’s why we’re rewarding you for it. All you have to do to get the workshop for only $10.00 is share the Seim Effects Facebook or G+ page on your profile, spreading the word so other people can check out Seim Effects for themselves.
Facebook: Just visit the Seim Effects page. On the bottom left, look for the share text. Click it and share the SE page on your personal profile, an active photo related group, or page. If you like, you to can add a few comments to the share, or just post it. As long as it’s on your wall, you’re golden.
Google+: If you prefer to hang on G+, that’s cool too. Just visit the SE page on G+ and click the “Share This Page” button on the upper left. Share the page with your friends on your personal profile, just like you would on FB.
Getting your discount download: You must share one or both of the pages listed above on your wall. Once you’ve shared, just send Gavin an email, effects@seimstudios.com. A screenshot of the share is nice, but we’re pretty easy going, so if you say you shared it and where, we’ll take your word for it. Just let Gavin know which page you shared, and he will follow up personally by sending you a coupon to get the first LR Ninja WORKSHOP. That generally happens within 24hours (usually much faster).
A couple guidelines:
You must share the corresponding Seim Effects page on your Facebook or Google+ personal profile, active photo related group, or page. You do not have to share on all, but if you want to say thanks by sharing in more than one place, we appreciate it. Also, while we appreciate you posting links directly to the website, this is to help spread the word on the social networks. You must share either the SE Facebook page or the SE Goggle+ page.
You cannot post the share and then delete it. This promotion is for the first workshop in the series and is not transferable. Even if you’re already using LR, there’s something in there for you. You cannot exchange the first workshop for one of the others. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to get in touch.

I have something new for you all that I’m really excited about. HDR and dynamic range is something I became passionate about years back. Since then it’s become more than a “look”. It’s become a way for me to better understand and manage light on every level. I think understanding dynamic range is an everyday essential for the serious photographer. It goes deep.
People have been asking for a recorded segment on HDR for years now. I’ve finally got a collection finished. And it’s more than basic HDR. Enter, HDR Magic. Over 2 hours of fully downloadable HD videos where I show you how I make HDR images and manage dynamic range. Their divided into sections, looking at every aspect, from bold HDR to gentle dynamic pushing and pulling. And going forward I plan to refine the set even further and send out free updates.
Head over to the HDR page for all the details and and the first video. It’s time to see light in a new light. I think you’ll enjoy them… Gav

This has been a long time coming and I’m really excited about it. Every time I made a video, taught a webinar, or planned a lesson. Somewhere in the back of my mind it was planning for video collections. People kept asking for them and I kept wanting to do them, but it was always daunting. I needed a plan and I needed to buckle down and make it happen.
Well it finally has and it’s in the form of my new Digital Darkroom training videos. Each video collection will o in depth on it’s topic, sharing ideas and techniques to really master it. No holds barred training that’s organized and concise. Kicking it all off is the Cloning Magic video workshop. A deep look at mastering the cloning and retouching tools that will change the way you edit and take your work to new levels. Check out the introduction and a free chapter from the complete new series right here. Enjoy… Gav
