Are You Letting Your Photography Be Framed?

Are You Letting Your Photography Be Framed?  Are You Letting Your Photography Be Framed? Many years ago at an art show, I was tending my photography booth and people watching. Across a walkway I spotted this lady. She was quite easy to notice with a couch pillow under her arm and holding out fabric swatches...

That has got to be one of the coolest pieces of furniture that I have ever seen. Your insight is incredible! Congrats to both you and your son.

Thanks Melissa! So you don’t think it’s too bachelor-padish? LOL :)

Couch art should be outlawed! I like how you approached the end-use of making photographs. Either you make the photograph then find a frame or end-use for it without altering the integrity of the photo or you have the frame or end-use in mind while making the photograph. In both cases, the photograph maintains its integrity.

I love your bach-pad vino bar. Classy!

LOL, thanks! Sure beats the cinder blocks and milk crates shelving system. LOL :)

Oh heck no…not bachelor-padish at all! I’m a single mom with 3 kids and would be proud to display it. It’s such a great conversation piece and one of a kind.

LOL, alright cool! I’ll go with it then. LOL ;)

I LOVE the window. What an amazing conversation piece. I think any man or woman would enjoy your bar. As always thanks for sharing your work.

Well, glad I read this. I thought I was crazy getting frustrated with the printing and framing of some of my images. I always figured “That’s the way I cropped it. I did it for a reason, why should I do it again?”

Oh, and that window is just bad-ass man. Really.

LOL, I love dramatic compliments like that. Thank you! :)

great pictures and ideas…

That window is gorgeous – and honestly, so is the cabinet – but the window is breath taking!

Kent,

A fresh perspective on one of Italy’s most famous and photographed landmarks. Brings back memories from the 60′s, Love it, thanks!

WoW that photo is astounding.

Wow! Is this infrared or normal black and white? It is awesome!

Very cool — love the black and white to make those clouds really stand out!

Hi Jenny,
Yes, it is infrared B&W. Not too much foliage glowing, but blue of sky goes dark. Thanks! :) PS ~ I’m coming to your town soon ;)

Wow…simply beautiful Kent.

This is so gorgeous. I love it. :)

Thanks Sarah! :)

Love how the tree and sky seem interchangeable, like an illusion. Great image.

Convert Your DSLR to Infrared

Convert Your DSLR to Infrared  Convert Your DSLR to Infrared Ever thought of shooting infrared images with your DSLR? Well it’s very possible and easily achieved. First of all it’s important to know that some DLSR cameras will “see” infrared light right out of the box. Most, however do not, but there’s a way to...

Love your site and photos, Ken.

I’ve looked at having a camera converted for IR, but have waffled on taking the plunge so far. My dilemma is this: I upgraded from a Canon 20D to a 7D for the higher resolution, and I’ve considered having the 20D converted. I’m just wondering whether I might be disappointed with the lower resolution if I convert the 20D to IR. Any thoughts?

Kevin P

I’ve looked at having a camera converted for a while, but haven’t taken the plunge yet. I have an old Canon 20D that I replaced with a 7D; do you think the lower resolution of the 20D would be an issue if converted to iR?

The resolution will not effect the IR aspect, it will simply be whatever res the camera is. It will work fine, in other words.

Hi Kent,

Had my old Pentax DS converted last year. Gave it a whole new lease of life.

Hi Kent, I was surfing the net looking for Black and White Infrared photography and found your vid on UTUbe. I was soooo happy :) )). I love infrared!!!!!. I do have a Nikon D70 that was converted with 665nm. I would love to do the black and white photography but not sure how. The funny thing is that I do have infrared color pictures that I did a while back, but with my moms passing I stopped all together and now I can’t seem to remember how.

Do you have any tutorials on the processing techniques?

I signed up for the composition class and looking forward to that. Well, I can go on but I’m afraid I’ll bore you. Thanks
Norma

Thank you so much for signing up. I don’t currently have any tutorials on this processing technique, but I will consider this.

Love my Nikon D100 converted by LifePixel a few years back.

Like everything else that you do, I love it!
Would love to know how you did it!

Ken

Thanks for the kind words Ken. Well, I was thinking I’d be shooting wide because of the bridge support wires etc., so my 17-35mm was on my camera and ready. I saw this guy a little ways down and I knew the wide lens would make the bridge way too small in the background, So I threw off my backpack, while I instructed my boys to watch my back, and I quickly switched to my 70-200mm lens. With that lens I was able to compress the background and pull it into the scene. I got three shots off before he was too close for the composition. I still can’t imagine how he could feel cold or need all those coverings on a 100° day???
