The lens, image sensor, and image processing engine are integrated into the camera units so the body itself does not contain an image sensor."

Bridge Time | Photoblog 2.0: "First I did some tests at 30 seconds to get the exposure right. My plan was to multiply out the exposure time once I had the right f/stop at this shutter speed (the maximum I can set on my Nikon D200 before going to Bulb). Based on what I was seeing in the LCD after exposure, 30 seconds and f/5.0 seemed about right.

Based on the 30 second exposure, I calculated that at f/22, the most stopped-down (smallest opening) of the lens I was using, 8 minutes would be about right."

Golden Gate Sunsets

2009-10-24T00:22:00.000Z

Golden Gate Sunsets: "This map helps you find spots from which you can see the sun set right in the middle of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Viewed from the Bay Area, the direction of the sunset varies from 240.2° at the Winter Solstice to 300.7° at the Summer Solstice. These bearings are measured in degrees east of true north; in the winter, the sun sets more towards the south, and in the summer it sets more towards the north.

Between the 6th of September and the 4th of April each year, the setting sun can be seen right in the center of the Golden Gate from a series of viewpoints around the central bay. Between the 17th of October and the 23rd of February, for 130 days each winter, the viewpoints march up and back along the East Bay shoreline. The exact spot from which the show can be seen moves by a few hundred feet per day."

The rule of thirds

2009-10-07T07:12:00.000Z

The rule of thirds | DigicamGuides.com: "Rules Are Meant to be Broken

Calling the rule of thirds a 'rule' makes it sound like all photographs that don't follow this approach are pretty much awful and boring. Not the case.

There are thousands of examples the world over of amazing eye-catching photos that do not follow the rule of thirds. Many don't seem to follow any 'rule' at all."

Golden ratio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "In mathematics and the arts, two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio of the sum of the quantities to the larger one equals the ratio of the larger one to the smaller. The golden ratio is an irrational mathematical constant, approximately 1.6180339887.[1] Other names frequently used for the golden ratio are the golden section (Latin: sectio aurea) and golden mean"

golden section - Google Search: "What is the Golden Section, Golden Mean, Golden Spiral, Golden Ratio. How to use them in the photography. Rules of Composition."
Golden Section and Rule of Thirds (Golden Mean, Golden Ratio, Golden Spiral, Golden Proportion, Golden Triangles).: "Golden Triangles
Another rule is the 'Golden Triangles'. It's more convenient for photos with diagonal lines. There are three triangles with corresponding shapes. Just roughly place three subjects with approximate equal sizes in these triangles and this rule would be kept."

Kite Aerial Photography

2009-08-26T07:36:00.000Z

Kite Aerial Photography - Yellowtone: "Kite aerial photography in its simplest form is the creation of a photograph with a camera on a kite or suspended from a kite line.

In a more advanced form it employs a video transmitter on the camera rig that sends an image to an LCD on the ground which is used to determine the best time to snap an image remotely using a radio control connected to servos on the KAP rig. Advanced rigs, like the one we used, can also use radio controls to pan and tilt the camera."

BEST BREEZES: Kites and Kite History - William Abner Eddy - Diamonds in the Sky: "Eddy experimented with a number of shutter release techniques and contributed much to the knowledge of the emerging technique of kite aerial photography ranking up there with the original pioneer aerial kite photographer, M. Athur Batut who seven years prior took the first aerial photograph from a kite-lifted camera in Labruguiere, France, on June 20, 1888.

Eddy published his experiences and the potential for use of kite aerial photography in the journal The Century Magazine. [May-October, 1897] In an article written in this prestigious magazine of the era, Eddy envisioned the application of kite aerial photography to military intelligence. He carefully detailed how a camera mounted on a kite might permit the Navy to view beyond the horizon line and get advance information on ships of other navies operating in a region."

View camera - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Photographers use view cameras to control focus and convergence of parallel lines. Image control is done by moving the front and/or rear standards. Movements are the ways the front and rear standards can be positioned to alter perspective and focus. The term can also refer to the mechanisms on the standards that allow the position to be achieved."

These are not movies; these are full six-megapixel photographs, each with enough resolution for a poster-sized print.

“After such a burst, you’re offered three options: delete all 60 shots, keep all 60, or review them and pluck out the individual frames worth keeping."

Casio has done it. Two new models are sleek, compact versions of that ground-breaking FX1. There’s the EX-FC100 (5x zoom, 2.7-inch screen, image stabilizer, $400) and the EX-FS10 (3x zoom, 2.5-inch screen, $350). Both of them do all that crazy time-machine stuff.

KODACHROME Film - Discontinuance Notice

2009-06-24T01:16:00.000Z

KODACHROME Film - Discontinuance Notice: "Eastman Kodak Company announced on June 22, 2009 that it will discontinue sales of KODACHROME Color Film this year, concluding its 74-year run as a photography icon. Sales of KODACHROME, which became the world's first commercially successful color film in 1935, have declined dramatically in recent years as photographers turned to other films or digital capture. Today, KODACHROME represents just a fraction of one percent of Kodak's total sales of still-picture films."

Despite all its outstanding features, KODACHROME involves a highly complex development process that led photographers to experiment with and adopt newer KODAK films that deliver outstanding color images through a simpler workflow.

Although KODACHROME has very distinct characteristics and no film will give the exact same results, current users are encouraged to try other Kodak films. Kodak continues to bring innovative new film products to market, having released seven new professional films -- over the last three years alone.
KODAK PROFESSIONAL PORTRA 160NC and VC Film
KODAK PROFESSIONAL PORTRA 400 NC and VC Films
KODAK PROFESSIONAL PORTRA 800 Film
KODAK PROFESSIONAL T-MAX 400 Film
KODAK PROFESSIONAL EKTAR 100 Film

Q&As:

Why has Kodak decided to stop offering KODACHROME?: Due to declining customer demand for KODACHROME, continued production of this film in no longer viable. Over the years people have moved from KODACHROME to other methods of capture, be it new films or digital. Simply put, not enough people are shooting KODACHROME for us to continue offering it.

What are recent sales of KODACHROME?: KODACHROME currently represents a fraction of 1% of Kodak’s still film sales. While KODACHROME is a truly iconic product that has served photographers very well for 74 years, the simple truth is that people have moved on and are no longer purchasing it in sustainable volumes.

jørn utzon

2009-05-14T06:39:00.000Z

jørn utzon turns 90 today on Flickr - Photo Sharing!: "jørn utzon turns ninety today and the Danish press abounds with misinformation about this elusive master of architecture.

'the utzon center' in aalborg, denmark, opens today. designed by utzon with the help of his sons, claim the newspapers. impressive news considering his failing eyesight, not to mention the fact that utzon closed down his office when the production of construction drawings for kuwait national assembly moved to max walt's office in zürich in the mid 1970's.

the utzon center in aalborg is designed by kim utzon, his youngest son, who is also the architect behind another utzon news story today: 'jørn utzon designs 22 single family houses in skagen'. no, he doesn't. the son does. inspired by his father, no doubt, but a novel inspired by stendhal is not a novel by stendhal. it really is that simple.

another misunderstanding from today, and I quote: 'today the opera is being restored following the original drawings'. sadly it isn't. it is being restored to designs by jan utzon. his design abilities can be studied here: Las Pulgas

increasingly, I am reminded of the actions of nietzsche's sister and mother after he fell ill."

>Avoid direct sunlight

i learned:  put the camera away between 10 and 2, because the light is
too flat from above to be interesting.

I think of it now, as:

shoot the big picture early and late

and

shoot macros in between

where the horizontal early and late rays make mountains interesting

Feature: Apical dynamic range interview: Digital Photography Review: "At its most simple, what our algorithms do is called dynamic range compression - trying to render extremes of light and dark in the way that the human eye would interpret them,' he explains. As it turns out, the company's starting point was human vision, rather than digital imaging: it was originally spun-out from a research group working on modeling biological imaging systems. 'The human eye is highly adaptive to light, and is able to interpret great extremes of light and dark,' says Tusch: 'The main thrust of that work was developing algorithms that could model the human visual system and the researchers realized that some aspects of that could be applied to digital image processing.'"

Digital Photo Frames

2009-02-20T20:26:00.000Z

How to Buy a Digital Photo Frame - Reviews by PC Magazine: "Rule 4: Select Your Aspect Ratio
Photo frames typically come in one of two aspect ratios, 4:3 or 15:9. By default, most point-and-shoot digital cameras capture photos in 4:3. A frame with an aspect ratio of 4:3 will be the best fit for your photos, as 15:9 frames will have to crop a piece of the top and bottom of your photos to fit the image on the LCD screen. On the other hand, a 15:9 aspect ratio gives your images a pleasing widescreen feel, which might be a better bet for some. One of our high-rated frames, the Sony DPF-V900 9-inch Digital Photo Frame, displays in 15:9. That, together with its slick design and intuitive software, makes it look and feel like a mini HDTV."

His work reflects his obsession with the female body. But while other photographers ask women to pose, and use the best equipment and store photographs with a big care, Tichy did the opposite.
He used to hide in bushes and take pictures of unaware women and girls with his home-made cameras. Once developed they were thrown away and Tichy didn't care about them anymore"

The use of the Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act to seize Icelandic assets was one recent example. The fork-tongued response cited above indicates another, this time impacting on photographers"

Well, kind of.
www.number10.gov.uk/Page17959

"Thank you for your e-petition asking for clarification of the law on photography in public places.

There are no legal restrictions on photography in public places. However, the law applies to photographers as it does to anybody else in a public place. So there may be situations in which the taking of photographs may cause or lead to public order situations, inflame an already tense situation, or raise security considerations. Additionally, the police may require a person to move on in order to prevent a breach of the peace, to avoid a public order situation, or for the person’s own safety or welfare, or for the safety and welfare of others.

Each situation will be different and it would be an operational matter for the police officer concerned as to what action if any should be taken in respect of those taking photographs. Anybody with a concern about a specific incident should raise the matter with the Chief Constable of the relevant force. "

So, I hope that's clearer to everyone than it is to me.

The Online Photographer: Big Sticks: "And sure enough. So how did he do it, with the only 4-megapixel 1D? Well, take a look at his workflow:

1. Each image is sharpened upon import into Photoshop using the Photokit Sharpener 'Capture Sharpen' macro to recover detail lost by the sensor (effectively infinite number of photons, finite number of pixels).

2. Each image is then upressed using Bicubic Smoother in PS to give the pixel dimensions at 360 ppi.

3. The image is then sharpened for printing using Photokit Sharpener using the Inkjet, 360 dpi, Glossy sharpening macro.

4. The image is then exported to ImagePrint, a RIP, and printed on Stephen's old warhorse Epson 2400 using the appropriate color profile and ImagePrint to drive the printer.

5. The photo is then printed on InkJet Art Microceramic Lustre."

A 6-month exposure will enable you to image the arc of the sun as it rises or sinks throughout 6 months of the year.

The new model sports an impressive specification including magnesium alloy construction, 12MP CMOS sensor (with on-chip A/D conversion), 5fps shooting and a wealth of features and customization options, though interestingly (given the recent spate of announcements) no live view option. There's also a couple of new lenses and a new vertical shooting grip."

All but one species is North American (can you find the one that isn't?). Click on the call to play the sound, or on Species Account to see more information about that species.

Advertisement calls are the loud calls that male frogs make to attract females. These are the familiar calls most people are familiar with. Some frog species have aggressive calls made by males towards other males, some have distress calls when bitten by a predator, and some have release calls when one male needs to tell another male to let go (mating in frogs can be a bit hectic). If you have animal sound recordings you'd like to share with the world, you can contact us through the link at the bottom of the page. We are always happy to get more sounds and pictures for our site."

Akron Ohio News - Natural sounds in Cuyahoga Valley National Park show signs of spring: "If you hear quacking in the valley, the sound does not necessarily come from a mallard duck. Wood frogs are true frogs whose call resembles the sound of quacking. They can create an exciting spectacle because they are explosive breeders. This means they gather near water in larger numbers to breed over a short period of time before disappearing into the woods for the rest of the year. If you think you see a wood frog, you can confirm it by looking for a dark, masklike patch that extends backwards from their eyes."

Flickr: wimdejonge: "I am fascinated by the redundancy of these things we tend to think of as special. Once I realised that I was an artist, it became completely irrelevant whether I was an artist or not. All that matters is to create. The more I create, the happier I become.

I write, I photograph. I plunder what I bump into with a gluttonous curiosity. My universe is never the same as it was before, and is a constant nonetheless. I am human and just like you."http://www.flickr.com/photos/wimdejonge/2502512394/

Welcome to ChrisMaverick.com: "Hello, My name is Christopher Maverick. But please, call me Mav.

What do I do for a living? It depends on what day of the week you ask me."

Flickr: chrismaverick: "I am the founder and administrator for the Flickr group, 365 days. It is based on my own 365 day project, which in turn was based on someone else's. The concept is simple. Take a self-portrait every day, for an entire year. At the end look back and see how you've grown as a person and a photographer. Since I started it, the group has been joined by people all over the world. If you're interested, we'd love to have you aboard. You can start whenever and it's likely to be a wonderful time."

There's more about me on blog and my website.

I write the comic book and comic strip Cosmic Hellcats
.

Please visit my art website at Elseworld.com. You can buy prints of my work and see some stuff by a few other artists as well.

Dear Chris

Along with many other souls across this planet, today I would like to thank you for your role in creating the 365 Days group that has brought so much to me over the past year. . . . . Scott"

HDR

2008-04-20T18:50:00.002Z

WIKI:-

In image processing, computer graphics and photography, high dynamic range imaging (HDRI) is a set of techniques that allows a greater dynamic range of exposures (the range of values between light and dark areas) than normal digital imaging techniques. The intention of HDRI is to accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from direct sunlight to shadows.

High Dynamic Range Imaging was originally developed in the 1930s and 1940s by Charles Wyckoff. Wyckoff's detailed pictures of nuclear explosions appeared on the cover of Life magazine in the early 1940s. The process of tone mapping together with bracketed exposures of normal digital images, giving the end result a high, often exaggerated dynamic range, was first reported in 1993^[1], and resulted in a mathematical theory of differently exposed pictures of the same subject matter that was published in 1995^[2]. In 1997 this technique of combining several differently exposed images to produce a single HDR image was presented to the computer graphics community by Paul Debevec.

This method was developed to produce a high dynamic range image from a set of photographs taken with a range of exposures. With the rising popularity of digital cameras and easy-to-use desktop software, the term "HDR" is now popularly used^[3] to refer to this process. This composite technique is different from (and may be of lesser or greater quality than) the production of an image from a single exposure of a sensor that has a native high dynamic range. Tone mapping is also used to display HDR images on devices with a low native dynamic range, such as a computer screen.

hdr imaging - Google Search - Flickr: Search: "We found 475,898 results matching HDR."

100 Strangers

2008-04-18T20:07:00.002Z

100 Strangers: "Want to be a better street photographer? Want to develop as a photojournalist? In order to be one you often need to have the courage to go and talk with people you don't know. Often it's good if you get them to pose for you or do things in front of the camera while they know you're there.

If your lacking some, you can get better with some practice. This is a contact photo group to inspire you to practice taking portraits of people you don't know. The ultimate challenge for the members is to take 100 portraits of 100 strangers. Candids are not allowed. Little by little, learning by doing you'll get better results.

You might even find that taking contact with strangers isn't as scary as you thought it would be. Here's how it goes: Stop people by the street, talk with them, ask if you can take a portrait.

Post the picture to Flickr and 100 strangers pool. Try to get an idea who they are. Write a caption that tells something about the person in portrait. Describe how you got the photo. Don't post archive photos. Get out on the streets to take new ones. Keep on practicing.

Don't try to get all 100 pictures during one session, but try to find different people in different locations. Try to get a wide array of portraits: rich, poor, white, black, working, doing sports, etc. To support variety, the posting to the pool is limited to one picture per day per member."

Bokeh

2008-04-17T14:21:00.000Z

Bokeh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "The other characteristics of a lens that cause it to produce pleasing bokeh are complex. Some lens designs are known to produce a certain kind of bokeh, but most photographers do not fully understand how the lens design influences bokeh; they merely note whether a lens produces results that please them. For example, mirror lenses produce a 'doughnut' bokeh that is generally considered unpleasant."

bokeh: "Photographers know that one of the characteristics that separates photographic imaging from drawing or painting is the matter of focus."

Bokeh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bokeh (from the Japanese boke ぼけ, "blur") is a photographic term referring to the appearance of out-of-focus areas in an image produced by a camera lens

Frequently Asked Questions: "What is Explore?

Explore is a Flickr feature with the intent of showing you 'some of the most awesome photos on Flickr.' Photos are automatically selected by computer according to a secret algorithm called Interestingness (see below for more about that).
Is Explore a showcase for the top Flickr photographers?

No. It's for photo viewers, not the photographers. It exists so that, at any moment, anyone who wants to view interesting photos can go to Explore and have a reasonable chance of seeing something interesting."

2008-03-28T07:13:00.000Z

Flickr: Explore interesting photos around Flickr: "Interestingness!

Besides being a five syllable word suitable for tongue twisters, it is also an amazing new Flickr Feature.

There are lots of things that make a photo 'interesting' (or not) in the Flickr. Where the clickthroughs are coming from; who comments on it and when; who marks it as a favorite; its tags and many more things which are constantly changing. Interestingness changes over time, as more and more fantastic photos and stories are added to Flickr.

We've added some pages (and changed some existing ones) to help you explore Flickr's most interesting photos. Before you start though, you might want to take your phone off the hook, send your boss to an executive training session and block off some time on your schedule, because we don't think you're going to be walking away from your screen any time soon. Beautiful, amazing, moving, striking - explore and discover some of Flickr's Finest."

Literary hotshots from Danish publishing giant Gyldendal frequent this place, together with students and professors from the nearby Faculty of Theology. All mix with local artists and a young crowd, and seek a casual, pub-like atmosphere without too much drunken shouting and roaming about."

but Welcome to Flickr! rules for me

Flickr - almost certainly the best online photo management and sharing application in the world - has two main goals:

1. We want to help people make their photos available to the people who matter to them.

2. We want to enable new ways of organizing photos. and read on About Flickr

Flickr surpasses the functionality of iPhoto
Flickr just launched a new feature of their photo management/sharing site called Organizr. Watch the demo videos to see it in action -- this is as close to a desktop app I've ever seen a web application. With a bit of Flash programming and photos I've already uploaded, Flickr approaches the features of iPhoto (the photo manager I currently use) and Photoshop Album (tried it, liked it too), but all within a browser. In some aspects (gallery control, keyword additions/searching) Flickr surpasses the functionality of iPhoto
