Lighting 103 Starts in January

06 Dec

Are you busy in 2017? If not (or even if so!) we invite you to join Strobist's upcoming Lighting 103 course live, when it arrives in January.

As with Lighting 101 and 102, L103 is completely free. There are some minimum gear requirements (sorry, I can't afford to give each of you gel packs.) But as with L101 and 102, there is nothing crazy expensive.

The first section of the course will debut in mid-January, and new lessons will post bi-weekly after that. Expect the course to last for most (if not all) of the 2017, as there are already a couple dozen lessons planned.

Are you in? Cool beans. Here's what you need to know. Read more ยป

31 January, 2015 – Panasonic LX-100

Michael reviews the Panasonic LX-100

Panasonic’s pocket camera is generally excellent and actually appears to have been designed with photographers in mind. However, it is not without its faults – as a frigid walk along the frozen shoreline of Lake Ontario proved. But equipped with a good lens and 4K video, the LX-100 makes an attractive offering.

Vancouver street photographer JC Wilson spends time on Summer evenings photographing the ebb & flow of customers and workers in an Asian night market.
JC keeps his gear light and simple and goes with the flow. His post production technique gives an unusually compelling look to his black & white photographs.

23 January, 2015 – Antarctica and Svalbard

24 Jan

 

We are very busy prepping for our two back to back Antarctica workshops.  Michael and I are flying to Santiago on Saturday the 23rd and we will not be returning until the 12th of February.  This will be an exciting two trips.  We have two fantastic groups and I am sure as we have found on every trip we have made to Antarctica it will be special.  This will especially be true for myself as I will be getting married on the first trip. We’ll have full details and pictures when we return.

Today we announce the northern polar region workshop we will be doing this summer.  Svalbard 2015 – Land Of The Polar Bear.  Taking place August 30th – September 8th. This workshop will have Michael and me as leaders and instructors.  This is a small intimate 11 person workshop and it will be quite special.  This past year we did two back to back workshops in Svalbard and both trips were amazing.  You can read about this past years trip HERE.   Check it out and book your spot today.

We will post an article if the internet holds up from Santiago at the beginning of next week.  Chris who will be manning the shop while we are gone will also post a few articles in our absence.  And, when we return we will dive right into the launch of the new LuLa website on February 14th.

9 January, 2015 – Practical Considerations For Time-Lapse Photography

09 Jan

 

Time-Lapse Photography is becoming a new interest of many photographers.  With almost every new consumer and pro camera introduced these days there is a time-lapse feature built in.  Even the newer smartphones have time-lapse as a setting.  I remember as a kid in school watching the time-lapse images of a flower growing from a seed or clouds moving across the sky in weather time-lapse movies. 

We are seeing time-lapse videos appear more and more often on You-Tube.  Some of these are quite spectacular and offer a new ways of seeing familiar scenes.  One of the pioneers and experts in this type of photography is German photographer Anna Possberg.  We are happy to publish her very detailed and extensive look into Practical Considerations For Time-Lapse Photography.  Take some time and enjoy this article and view some of the videos in the links.  Then grab your camera and go out and give it a try.
