I know when I was starting out in photography one of the biggest challenges is there was so much equipment available I didn’t have the first clue as to what I needed! So here is a list of equipment that I own and/or use and would be perfect for any photographer on your list! Or just for yourself, if that’s how you roll.
I tried to keep the items under 0 so there aren’t any Elinchrom strobes or anything like that, but you can find links to that equipment in previous blog posts if you’d like.
Without further ado, here it is… a couple items perfect for the holidays!
Holiday Gift Guide available at B&H Photo – Ships Worldwide!
If I missed something or if you have a question on what a particular item is used for just leave it in the comments!
Every 15 minutes the camera took a picture, then was moved 2.5″ to the left to take another picture (motor driven). Each pair of pictures was made into an anaglyph for viewing in 3D. You must wear red/cyan glasses to view this in 3D. There were a total of 125 anaglyphs, each one made manually!
This tutorial explains how to use Photoshop to reduce skin discolorations. I show you how to make a Soft-Light layer (filled with 50% gray), so the Dodge and Burn tools can be used to decrease or increase the density of our Soft-Light layer. This allows us to selectively lighten or darken areas of our photo. I demonstrate how to use layer opacity to make your retouch look more realistic and natural. (skill level=advanced)

I’m happy to announce the following Photo Tour schedule for 2011 and invite you to join me in photographing these inspiring & amazing locations. (see below)

Yosemite Winter Photography

Join me in photographing one of the worlds most majestic and iconic landscapes in North America. Stellar views and a vast number of intimate nature subjects will allow all in attendance to witness nature at its best.

Yosemite Moonbow
May 17-19, 2011 – Max. 4 people
(actual full moon is on May 17)
Moonbow – A Rainbow by moonlight? Just when you thought Yosemite’s amazing landscape couldn’t get any more amazing, it takes on a new level of drama under a full moon. Nearly impossible to see with the naked eye the Moonbow phenomenon is revealed through the lens of your camera while photographing Yosemite’s iconic falls. Conditions to witness and photograph a Yosemite Moonbow are ideal only a few times a year and in May weather permitting we should be treated to an amazing light show. In between evening photo sessions by day we’ll conduct photo reviews and explore Yosemite’s iconic landscape.
White Sands by Moonlight
October 14-16, 2011 – Max. 4 people
White Sands National Monument is a feast for the creative eye and an incredible location to explore. The ever-changing dunes are a source of endless wonder and inspiration. This trip is timed to take advantage of the October Full Moon.
Note: This photo tour will involve desert camping assuming campgrounds are available and weather conditions permit. Also participants should be able and prepared to hike 2-4 miles into the dunes.
In addition if there is interest I will be accepting a sign-up for attendees who would like to extend their trip through the 18th to photograph the Egg Factory in the Bisti Badlands.
Death Valley Racetrack
October 27-30, 2011 – Max. 4 people
Rich in dramatic geological formations, amazing Southwest light and a fascinating history, Death Valley never ceases to amaze. This extreme environment provides numerous photographic opportunities for those with a passion for desert landscapes. Unique to this trip will be our effort to take full advantage of the October New Moon allowing us to enjoy star filled skies in an area that is one of the few remaining in California with little to no light pollution.

What if you could then use those images for reference, texturing, and sculpting? What if you could do all this with out ever leaving ZBrush? What if, is the question… Z4 is the answer!
