Adams O’Keeffe and Frank @ SFMOMA

This last weekend while spending a belated anniversary getaway with my wife, we had a chance to visit the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) to see several of their exhibits. The first, and listed as the premier exhibit (that cost $5.00 more than the General Admission ticket) was…

I feel like I'm ready for lift off. My recovery has progressed to the point where I feel like I can start thinking of being a photographer again. It's been almost a week since I last used my wrist brace, and I can now hold a plate of food in…

In the words of a Master; Ansel Adams

Few people would argue about the influence that Ansel Adams has had on modern landscape photography. Some people may not appreciate his photography as much as others, but I have always been a fan of his work. I still remember to this day going into the city with my parents…

Bresson; The Impassioned Eye

"The decisive moment" is a phrase known well in photography circles, and no photographer has come to embody the meaning of that term like Henri Cartier-Bresson. If you aren't familiar with his work, be sure to check out a great documentary called, Bresson; The Impassioned Eye. Filmed in 2003, a…

Dead See Rolls

Now, I'm not talking about a biblical discovery, but for the photography world, it's a pretty darn amazing find. The New York Times has reported the finding of thousands of frames of film from famous war photographer Robert Capa. One of Capa's most well know shots is "The Falling Soldier",…

Ethics – what would you do?

I've never taken a Photojournalism class, or any journalism class for that matter. That makes me admittedly a little fuzzy on the subject of ethics for reporters. PDN Pulse reports this week on a photographer getting fined $1,000.00 and possible jail time for refusing to hand over a bunch of…

Over the week of Jan 17-21 I was fortunate to attend my first NANPA (North American Nature Photographers Assoc.) Conference in Palm Springs, California. It was also my first year as a NANPA member. To be honest, I had no idea what to expect, and I had some concerns. I've…

Photo-Hunter Killer: Just the bear facts…

Odd to come across a nature photographer who is also a hunter. Certainly not bizzare; just - unusual. But CNN reports on one such photographer who helped a country singer illegally kill a bear. Making this worse, said singer paid almost $5,000 for the tame black bear. The photographer then…
