January 14, 2006. NYC MOMA. The idea is not original. I can't recall exactly where I came across a very similar subject, but when I saw this art installation, that image immediately came to mind. Camera on the ground taken with a Canon 17-40L, 1/320 at f/16.

October 7, 2006. A long exposure photograph taken at a Malibu beach during a full moon. Taken with a Canon 17-40, 465 seconds at f/8. Lots of photoshop tweaking to produce this toning. |

December 2005, probably a little earlier than all the recent HDR photography hoopla. This is a combination of three images, I used my Canon 20d auto bracketing feature. I got lucky, most HDR photography has to be done with a tripod, the light was bright enough that I got away with a steady hand a fast shutter.

November 18, 2006. Lots of patience, a decent flash and a steady stream of smoke. The hardest part of freezing smoke into a photograph is focusing the lens on an ever changing and shifting shape. Forget using your auto-focus, it will be too dark. Prefocus the lens to the approximate location of where you think the smoke will appear. It helps to crank up the flash power to allow for a greater depth-of-field, i.e. a smaller f-stop. As with all flash photography, shutter speed does not matter. |
