Bleeding Hearts

Ever wonder how someone could be a comedian, contemplate theology, and end up a passionate photographer. David duChemin has his story.

I ran across some cool inexpensive lighting equipment today. After watching a NAPP video via Kelby’s blog, I went to photobasics.net. This is a set of inexpensive gear aimed at non professionals. There is some neat looking stuff here.

Added a new book to my wish list at Amazon. David Ziser’s book Captured by the Light: The Essential Guide to Creating Extraordinary Wedding Photography. I am not a wedding photographer, but I bet anyone that wants to create great portraits could benefit from this book.

I don’t get to Moose Peterson’s blog every day, but when I do, I usually read through a bunch of older posts. Here is one from a couple of days ago where he talks about the Nik Color Effects filter plugin. Very neat. The particular filter: tonal contrast. Unfortunately it is only available in the $299 Complete version. (see filter list here)
