Here is my Epiphone Sheraton II again but now with new wiring and TV Jones Classic pick up’s. I like this song but i am not 100 % sure if i play everything correct. Anyway it sounds good to me and its fun to play (without a slide). I don’t have a mini slide. I am also testing the Video mode of my DSLR Nikon D90. Its in HD, but i am still looking for the best settings, so room for improvement here.

Photo Post Production Workflow
01
Nov
This video demonstrates my workflow for enhancing images during post production. I used Adobe Lightroom, Portrait Professional, and Adobe Photoshop in this video. The video is 5x faster than the actual editing speed. A before and after look is located at the end of the video. Lightroom achieves the basic image adjustments, such as white balance, contrast, and other overall effects. Portrait Professional is used mainly to smooth skin and hair. Adobe Photoshop is used to clean up some blemishes and unwanted shadows. I also applied a bokeh effect to the bottom left corner.

Photo Term Series Post #20: Bokeh
31
Oct
One of the more interesting terms in photography is bokeh (pronounced bo-keh). Bokeh is the aesthetic quality of the blur in the out of focus portion of an image. The word is derived from the Japanese word boke meaning blur or haze.
Bokeh can be an important quality photographers evaluate when choosing a lens. This is particularly true when a photographer strives for non-distracting and smooth backgrounds. Nature, portrait and event photographers for example often make use of bokeh to isolate their subjects from busier backgrounds by choosing a smaller f/stop setting and thus a larger aperture. By choosing a smaller f/stop setting a photographer chooses to narrow the plane of focus and create a shallower depth of field. By having a shallower depth of field more of the photographed scene is then placed out of focus.
