Hi you! While I was trying not to evaporate during a photography session in my garden[su_spoiler title=”wow, a garden photography session?” style=”fancy” icon=”caret-square”] nothing like ‘summer is here’ with hot babes half naked, but more like ‘how can I get these walnuts smile when I shoot?’. Product photography, the good thing is that your subjects stand […]
22 of 51 – Unusual perspective
Hi there! A good morning to you all. This week’s theme is “Unusual Perspective”. That is: try to see things in a different way. When your son makes bubbles with the nose, take the photo as usual. Then move: we have already shot downwards and upwards, but go farther. If you usually shoot facing the […]
21 of 51 – From below
Wow, I made it! The past weeks have been full of beautiful things and busy days. And bad internet connection… (as if to say “not my fault, this time”. Ok, I know, it’s my fault if I’m late). The theme for past week was From Below, Upwards, Looking up. So I looked up: These […]
20 of 51 – From above
Hi guys! Better late than never, do you agree? Let’s launch the new macro theme for this month, Point of View, with the shot From Above. By way of apology, I took two pictures: same subject, two different points of view (but both from above 😉 ) Beufville’s wine bottles. It’s good: I already tasted […]
19 of 51 – Lighting (free choice of subject: dark field lighting)
Halloooooo! I know you thought the aliens kidnapped me, but don’t worry: I’m still here. My chosen subject for this week is: Dark Field Lighting. Cool! But what is it? [su_quote cite=”John Adkins” url=”http://jwadkins.blogspot.it/2013/08/dark-field-lighting.html”]Dark field / bright field lighting is simply about creating good edge light or shadow on your subject and is often seen in […]
18 of 51 – Backlighting
Good evening everyone! Here we are, with a new theme for week 18: Backlighting. As the term suggests, backlight photography is when… the subject is illuminated from the back. It’s not important the type of light source you decide to make use of, this can be achieved either with natural and with artificial light. As […]
17 of 51 – Split light
This week, the photo took me longer than expected: the theme is challenging, at least for me. Light is fundamental for photography, and understanding it is far more important than learning all other rules: frame a perfect shoot, balance the composition, take care of the rules, control the depth of field, and just don’t care […]
16 of 51 – Natural light
I love natural light. First of all, it’s free! 😉 I know I am late (you should be used to my lack of timing, by now), but I’m just back from a few days trip in Germany: Bamberg and Nürnberg. Soon I’ll post some photos of this short vacation with friends, but first the shoot for the […]
15 of 51 – Exposure (free choice)
Just a quick note to go on with the Project and to wish Happy Easter to everyone! This is a bit underexposed, I know 😉 But the grill-party is waiting for me and I still have to bake the bread (important things, as you see…). So, hope you all enjoy this day, spend it with […]
Why is Correct Exposure not always Correct?
Hi there! In this beautiful middle-season, I have big problems in deciding where to set my laptop to work: it’s too hot to stay in the sun, but too cold to stay in the shade or inside, in my studio (I mean… it’s cold for me) If you knew me, you would not be suprised: […]
