After the initial umbrella and softbox, the next purchase is usually a beauty dish, and then other esoterica such as ring-flash. Personally, I’d suggest that one of the first light modifiers anyone should get, is a small or medium sized gridded strip-box. A strip-box is narrower than the usual soft boxes, and the grid really helps contain the light spread. So you now have the ability to get relatively soft light, but also control it much better than a regular softbox or especially an umbrella.

Basic techniques to repair lenses (and cameras) From time to time I see some colleague doing a repair try on a lens that always ends in disaster because he's not using the right tools and practices.

Basic techniques to repair lenses (and cameras)

So I've setup this post with my little experience, expecting it could be useful for some other begginer. Repairing a lens shouldn't be too difficult if the disassembly sequence is known, the right tools are used and some minimal cautions are taken. The most difficult part is to know the disassembly sequence. Older (unknown) lenses are like a puzzle, we have to figure out how to do that, but many newest ones are documented. Some colleagues that have been able to discover the disassembly sequence, end in disaster because they do not take the proper cautions and don't use the right tools. DIY Camera Stuff.

Dave Morrow: Night Sky Photography On the Edge of Reality

Looking at his portfolio, It's hard to believe that he took his first shots of the Milky Way only two months ago! "I have always been a huge fan of the subject," says Dave. He looked at thousands of pictures of the night sky, which made him want to create something completely different from everyone else. Two months ago, Dave was headed to the North Cascades to shoot Picture Lake and overheard someone talking about the meteor showers that night. After shooting the sunset he laid out and waited for the stars. "When I got home from my first shoot and upload the picture onto my computer, I had no clue how to process this beast of an image," reports Morrow. Number two has got to be the Nikon D800 which he feels seems to have a star photography “sweet spot” of ISO 5000. Vello Mini Softbox VE-1002 B.

A Journey into the Insect Macro World with Craig Taylor

Today we are going on a journey in the macro world, guided by Craig Taylor, an exceptional photographer who will unravel for us this amazingly detailed world of insects. We will stare into those…many many eyes of tiny spiders, we will observe a moth’s trunk and we’ll go “eeew” at the hairy bodies of other insects. All in all, it is fascinating to observe these little beings, and we’re grateful to Craig for his help with this: he combines the passion for photographic art with the scientific part (being an engineer for a living), achieving spectacular results: macros, as well as some light painting shots. But let’s see what he has to say about this, in the following exclusive interview.
