Understanding Closeup Photography. In his sixth book, renowned photographer, popular instructor, and best-selling author Bryan Peterson challenges and inspires us to see close-up photography in new ways when we view it through his eyes. You’ve seen the dewdrops, but what about dewdrops on a bird’s wing or raindrops on a car windshield? You’ve seen the bumblebees on vibrant flowers, but what about the fluid edge of just one petal or the colorful rusting metal at industrial sites? Even when Peterson does capture the more traditional subjects, it’s done in untraditional ways–and often with minimal specialized equipment! Most important, he moves beyond the commonplace to inspire new ways of getting close, using your lenses, and discovering unconventional subjects.

sheep on hillside italy Liguria Italy Photoblog Images No Words pictures

Hi, I’m an italian guy who loves everything about photography. I’m 29 years old and I live in a little heaven called “Poets’ gulf” in the east part of Liguria (italy) I started shooting some years ago, with an old reflex film camera, then I bought my first digital camera. It was a minolta dimage s414 and now I shoot with my new
nikon d50 .

The passion for this art has also grown thanks to my friend photographer Duz. He teach me lots of things and together we spent good times taking photos and shooting everything. From some times I enjoy to visit various photoblogs on the net, and so I decided to create this one.

This is my first photoblog, I write it by myself in php and when I was near to finished it I discovered PixelPost existence (DOH!!!) … I hope you enjoy it.. my dream/purpose is to improve my technique or it’s better to say to learn take some good photos.

brian kaldorf 300x157 Tuesday Photo Blog Call picturesA special thanks goes out to the many people that follow this blog via Twitter..I really enjoy the messages and emails from photographer wanting to be listed on our site…keep ‘em coming! I am working on a couple of new tools for this photo blog which I hope allow us to grow our wonderful community…but more to come on that…Here are several interesting photoblogs which entered our message box overnight.

Brian Kaldorf – “…a pittsburgh based photographer specializing in editorial and commercial portraiture and still life.  His images rely on a strong foundation of color and technology to achieve a hyper realistic look in his photographs.  Whether it’s a band’s cover photo, a fashion spread, or an illustrative concept, Brian Kaldorf’s photographic abilities can take your project to the next level.”

PixelShots -“…the cutest photoblog with photos of nature, insects, flowers, waterfalls, fishes, tourist destinations, palaces, archeological monuments, crocodile parks, macro and closeup photos, amateur galleries, mobile phone photography, and still adding…”

C.H. Paquette Photography – “…a collection of photography news and exhibit listings, random essays on visual culture, as well as a showcase of established and emerging photographers”

Laurent Batailley - “…blog is running since January 2006, and the present version is the third one.As a “culturally” graphic oriented guy (started graphic compo on Amstrad CPC!) my main interest is more the final picture than photo in general. So, this blog is the place where I’m posting my current explorations and experimentations in image production.

Even if my photos remain my favorite raw material (as it’s really easier and faster than drawing) this blog is clearly “Photoshop” post processing oriented. The previous version of this blog was already offering before and after. Now what’s up? Here’s a comprehensive description: Regular posts of original photography, visually enhanced and retouched using Adobe Photoshop. Most of time Photos, Images, Pictures, are posted with a before (raw picture) and after (Photoshopped) view.

Also you can enjoy up to 4 steps post-processing views and a FREE downloadable PSD file (Adobe Photoshop CS4) to learn/study/understand all photoshop technics used for photo post-production, restauration and enhancement.”

On a slightly different note, a special thank you goes out to Linda in Seattle,WA for sending in a birthday gift…Annie Leibovitz at Work…love it!
