Throw a Photo-Fun New Years Eve Party!

28 Dec

We’ve all been there – a New Year’s Eve “party” with stale chips and nothing to do.

While we can’t help with the snacks, we can help with the fun – yes, there are photos involved, of course.

Use a few (or all) of these tricks and gadgets to make your New Year’s party one to remember, even as we’re all trying to forget 2016.

Blog Project: Your Best Photos From 2016

15 Dec

It’s that time of year again and if you’re a regular JMG-Galleries reader that means one thing…
it is time to kick off the 10th annual best photos of the year blog project. This is by far my most popular blog project with hundreds of photographers taking part last year (see Best Photos of 2015, 2014, 2013,  2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007). Around this time of year people start to ask if I’d be running this project again. The answer clearly is always YES!
1. I love this project and I love that so many people get excited about it.
2. It’s a great way exercise to improve your photography (10 Ways to Top Your Best 20xx Photographs).
So with out any further delay here is how you take part to submit your best photos of 2016.

How to Participate (Read Carefully)

  1. Review & select your best photos from 2016.
    Note: Photo edit carefully narrowing down your results to your best 10 or 5 photos. Reference Pro Tips: Photo Editing with Gary Crabbe for pointers.
  2. Create a blog post on your web site or a Flickr/500px set containing your best photos from 2016.
  3. Complete the form below by Tuesday JANUARY 3rd at 11:59PM PST to take part. The following Tuesday, or there about, I’ll post a link to all submitted sites and photos on my blog. Through out the week I’ll also share the results across all my social media accounts.

Spread the Word!
Feel free to spread the word of this project on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, photo forums you frequent and/or your blogs. All who are interested in taking part are invited.

How to Capture a Ghost (in a Photo) in 3-ish Ways

27 Oct

As Halloween Approaches, you’re probably noticing more ghosts around.

They can be quite camera-shy and tricky to photograph, so we’re here to show you how.

Shhhh, now lean in close for this part.

*whispers* We haven’t actually managed to photograph a real ghost, but we’re pretty good at faking it using just our phone. Read along to learn just how we do it.

But only if you don’t scare too easily. *ghost sounds* OoooOooOOoOooo!

Stars Above Maui

15 Oct
Stars Above Maui
Stars Above Maui

Circumpolar star trails high above Haleakala National Park in Maui, Hawaii

It’s an interesting feeling to be atop Haleakala, high above the South Pacific, with the feeling of being on top of the world. Atop Haleakala National Park you can see out for 50 miles in every direction when its cloud-free and you tower above the rest of Maui.  Yet when you take a star trail photo such as this you quickly realize that you were really on the side of our spinning globe. Star trail photos are always fun, but I’m particularly fond of this one because Polaris is so much closer to the horizon than I’m used to. One day it would be equally fun to head closer to the Arctic to see Polaris directly overhead.

Happy Shooting!

Photo Details
Canon 5D Mark II + Canon 14mm f/2.8L II USM
