6 March, 2013 – Using the NEX-7 as an M Leica Surrogate
06
Mar
What’s a Leica M lens user to do while waiting for the new Leica M (240)? Put his lenses on a NEX-7, of course, and that’s what I’ve been doing for the past few months while living and shooting in Mexico this winter.
How has that worked out for me? Read Waiting For The New M and find out.

Airborne Architecture: 12 Images of Flying French Houses
06
Mar
[ By WebUrbanist in Art & Photography & Video. ]
Context – that is the key to taking the ordinary and making it amazing in this series of displaced homes soaring up from forgotten streets of Paris. The results float like an intentionally mundane version of Pixar’s UP, or a modern-day urban Wizard of Oz Tale.
Laurent Chehere picks a range of dwellings, but most are dilapidated and seem perhaps sad in their crowded urban environment. She takes photographs of local buildings, tents and trailers, then photoshops their surroundings into something radically new.
Some are slathered in graffiti – others shown with clotheslines in everyday use. To this, she adds a few whimsical gestures – power lines, strings of lights, earthward ladders and other odds and ends to tie down each piece like a balloon and keep it from floating away.
One consequence of ripping these from the ground and setting them in the sky is simply an enhanced focus on an otherwise-connected building. In these isolating images, townhouses become standalone works, and we start to see them differently.

Genius: Make a Gaffer’s Tape Key Fob

Mar
Like most photographers—especially lighting photographers—I love me some gaffer's tape.
Today, a great way to carry enough gaff on your physical person at all times to fix a light mod, tack a piece of fabric to a wall for a headshot backdrop, or whatever.

Fotogenes Deutschland – Geroldsee
05
Mar
Nicht immer muss man als Landschaftsfotograf in die Ferne schweifen. Auch in Deutschland gibt es spektakuläre Landschaften zu entdecken. Ich möchte hiermit nun eine Artikelserie beginnen, die den Fokus auf eben jene Landschaften legt, die mehr oder weniger vor unserer Haustür liegen. Als Auftakt stelle ich euch einen meiner Lieblingsorte in den deutschen Alpen vor: Den Wagenbrüchsee, besser bekannt als Geroldsee.
Ich habe diesen Ort in den letzten zwei Jahren zu jeder Jahreszeit besucht und in den unterschiedlichsten Stimmungen erlebt. Mal regnete es ununterbrochen, mal war der See in Nebel gehüllt oder von Schnee bedeckt. Doch egal, wie das Wetter war, ich konnte immer mit einem besonderen Foto zurückkehren.
Was den Geroldsee zu einem so schönen Motiv macht, ist vor allem die Karwendelbergkette, die sich bei Windstille im See spiegelt. Zu Sonnenaufgang kann man auf einen glühenden Himmel hinter den Bergen hoffen, zu Sonnenuntergang glühen die Berge selbst. Der Geroldsee ist der perfekte Ort, um Alpenglühen zu erleben. Zudem ist er von zahlreichen kleinen Hütten umgeben, die sich sehr gut als Vordergrundmotive eignen.
Am liebsten fotografiere ich dort im Juni und Anfang Juli. Zu dieser Zeit besteht verstärkt die Chance auf Nebel, der morgens vom Barmsee herüberzieht.
Man sollte sich aber immer früh genug um eine Unterkunft bemühen. Die Gegend zwischen Garmisch Partenkirchen und Mittenwald ist im Sommer sehr beliebt bei Wanderern und im Winter bei Skifahrern. Deshalb sind viele Pensionen schon Wochen vorher ausgebucht – vielleicht hatte ich bislang aber auch nur immer ein schlechtes Timing.
Zum Abschluss bleibt noch zu sagen: „Leave only footprints, take only photos.“ Und auf den sumpfigen Wiesen um den See sollte man am besten gar keine Spuren hinterlassen. Bei der Fülle an Motiven ist das auch gar nicht nötig.
