Working With What You've Got…more interesting images!
Posted on July 06th, 2010 in Uncategorized
I continue to be amazed at the response to my call for entries for last week’s contest. Remember, the whole topic was in response to people saying they just don’t have any place nice to photograph. Everyone has shown that while we’d all love to be shooting on the beaches of Malibu, there are still great places to create and capture moments! Here’s another round…
Three images from Leslie Carpenter:
And two interesting images from Stephanie Stremler, but the fun part was her comments:
Big Sky – Find a little incline in the land, a blue or dramatic sky and get on your belly to shoot. Makes for a great, dramatic shot everytime!
Intimate Love – On a day with bright overhead sun and little open shade to work in I positioned these two in front of open barn doors. The dark interior of the building contrasted with the bright outside sun on the couple, which resulted in a dark black background that really made the couple stand out.
Easy ways to make a damatic image while working with you got, even if it literally isn’t much.
and last but not least, from last year’s graduating class at Hallmark Institute, Maggie Susse:
Thanks again for your entries, the contest ends at midnight tomorrow!

yeah these are amazing. I think its a mind set. There are people who are go getters and will have fun and do anything to get a cool shot no matter where they are, and people who are always negative and down and need the conditions to be perfect before they will go out and shoot.

This post reminds me of my own photoblog at Riff’s Photography Journal. The reason for my blog is, not only to show my world, but to also get across to others that you can find something to photograph any where. I say, “If you are not looking, you will never see.”
Good post.
