31 July, 2013 – The Digital Print – a review and video interview

31 Jul

Our friend and colleague Jeff Schewe has written a new book titled The Digital Print. It has just been published and is available as of today from leading book sellers.

We now have a review of the book online. The page also includes a ten minute long streaming video interview with Jeff conducted by Kevin Raber.


"Having been to Antarctica with Michael and Kevin, I would say after having traveled the world and shot nearly my entire life as an exhibiting photographer,  it was one of my highlights in my life and I talk about it, all the time.  The images and experience of seeing something visionary and nearly extinct from the world, to see and experience the wildlife and scenery that does not fear humans is amazing.  The images I shot there won me two Smithsonian awards and nearly 18 other international awards". – Tim Wolcott

26 July, 2013 – Hasselblad Jumps The Shark

26 Jul

No doubt you’ve heard of the Hasselblad Lunar, that company’s gussied-up version of the Sony NEX-7, sold at 6X the normal price of that soon to be superceded camera.

In an essay just published today I let you know in no uncertain terms what I think of this Wretched Excess.

23 July, 2013 – A Must Have APP For Every Photographer

23 Jul

Every now and then a new app is published that gets our attention. Photopills is just that kind of app. This is not just another app where you can add effects and retouch your photo. This app is a tool that does a lot and does it well. Imagine taking your iPhone out and aiming it at a location and seeing where the sun and moon will be as well as what time they will be in certain positions in the sky. Our Article and Review A Pill To Get Hooked On will introduce you to such an app.

Don’t forget our 2015 Antarctica By Air workshops. This is the finest Antarctica Expedition for photographers and their spouses (and children 18 years and over). Fly over the turbulent Drake Passgae by jet, instead of 2 days by sea. Join an all star cast of 7 of the world’s leading photographic instructors. You’ll return from this trip with some amazing images.

19 July, 2013 – Antarctica By Air 2015 Selling Out

20 Jul

If you’ve been considering joining one of our Antarctica By Air expeditions in early 2015 this is a heads-up that Singles and Triples are sold out on Voyage #1, and that the Single cabins are sold out on Voyage #2.

Now is the time to take the plunge – so to speak. This is the finest Antarctic Expedition for photographers and their spouses (and children 18 years and over). Fly over the turbulent Drake Passage in 2 hours by jet, instead of 2 days by sea. Join seven of the world’s leading photographic instructors. 

Going to Antarctica is as close to visiting another planet as any of us will ever get. The photographic opportunities are beyond expectation.

You know you want to. Don’t put it off.
