Photography Tip - Posing App for iOS and Android helps photographers

in ,

One of the hardest things about making a portrait is often the pose.  Now I like to make as candid of portraits as possible, but not every client has the personality for such a shoot.  Likewise, as a photographer it is not easy to memorize exactly a whole catalogue of poses, and even if you have done so, describing that in words to a client is not so easy.  

This is why I really like the Posing App (available for iOS & Android).  It is a visual way out in the field for me to show clients how to get into natural and attractive poses that will result in great portraits.  The app breaks poses down by the number of people in a shot making it easy to find a collection of poses for the number of subjects.  There is also a tips & tricks section.  Just for how to better pose hands and arms the app is worth it.

free iPhone wallpaper -- Horse Grazing in Yamanashi Japan

Start your work week off with a free new wallpaper for your iPhone or iPod touch!

It was my first time to visit a public farm in Japan when I photographed this small horse grazing on a hillside in Yamanashi Prefecture.  The horses were closer to the fence until they got tired of being petted and fed grass by hand from some children.  The afternoon I made this photograph was one of my most pleasant in Japan and I am glad to be reminded of it in sharing this wallpaper.

Please let me know if you use this wallpaper in the comments below.

Free iPhone Wallpaper - Tin Type Pelican in Flight

in ,

free iPhone wallpaper -- Brown Pelican in Flight in Saint Petersburg Florida in tin type processing

Start your work week off with a free new wallpaper for your iPhone or iPod touch!

For several weeks I have had an ongoing project to photograph a pelican just skimming over the water's surface.  I have not yet been successful in making that image, however in that pursuit I was able to make this in-flight shot of a brown pelican.  I chose tin type processing for this image because a few weeks ago I went to an antiques fair and had a chance to browse some true tin type prints and was fascinated about how vivid some of them remained even though they were printed over a 100 years ago.  

I hope to be able to provide a shot of a pelican skimming over the water soon!  In the meantime, it is always fun for me to photograph birds in any manner.

A high resolution print of Tin Type Pelican in Flight can be purchased here.

Florida is a great place to photograph birds, with or without a 600mm lens.  This brown pelican was only a few feet from me.  Of course brown pelicans are very used to people and always hanging around fisherman in the hopes they will be tossed an unwanted catch!
