  • BorrowLenses.com - Great rental equipment at a great price. For any photographer who wants to give a lens a test drive or has a short-term assignment, I highly recommend them. As a member of their affiliate program, you'd be doing me a favor if you click here to rent.
  • Danny Heinlein - One of the most skilled photogs I know and another mentor and friend of mine. Danny shot our wedding and my wife and I still love looking at our album to this day.
  • David duChemin - One of my favorite photographers! Whether you just love taking pictures or are a seasoned professional, I cannot recommend his book "Within the Frame" highly enough.
  • Scarlet City Events - Easy to work with meets attention to detail - that's Dina Gesouras. If you're in the market for a wedding coordinator, give her a call and see for yourself.

Jason and His Bike

Posted on April 7, 2008

My good friend Jason wanted to get some pics of his bike and Sunday was a beautiful day to do just that. We didn’t do anything too crazy, and we may eventually take it out on the freeway or to an outdoor track, but we did get a couple of cool shots. Here are a few:

Commenting as a photographer, you might notice that I deliberately gave the 1st and 3rd shots a stylistic blur in post-processing, where the subject is in focus and the shot radiates to a progressively out-of-focus circle from that point. I was pretty proud of my ability to create this  simple effect in Photoshop with about 30 seconds of work.

Not a lot of free time lately, but I’ll return to more regular posting soon!
