Photographic Art Using Microscopy

Kevin Moss — Sat, 20 Nov 2010 20:15:48 +0000

Photographic artists wanting to expand their imaging horizons may be surprised where those horizons may be. You may be thinking in traditional photographic terms, but for real originality you can look at alternative optics to to place in front of your camera. Once example can be a telescope, and there are legions of astrophotographers out there that got into astronomy just for the imaging. Another less popular but just as powerful alternative is microsopy, photography through a microscope.

Fall Color Photography

Kevin Moss — Fri, 08 Oct 2010 14:27:28 +0000

Autumn. A favorite time of year for many nature photographers. For those lucky enough to live in areas where you have 4 seasons, right now, early October is a special time. In the northern latitudes, colors are at peak or just past. In many areas, fall color is just starting to appear, and that means its time for nature photographers to get out their digital cameras, tripods and a circular polarizer and get out and photograph fall color.

Recent Photography Trend #10: The Return of Black and White

Kevin Moss — Wed, 29 Sep 2010 17:24:00 +0000

Black and white photography never really did go away, there is still a legion of fine art black and white photographers out there practicing their art. What digital photography has given us however is a greatly increased interest in photography as a whole, and with that increase a whole new slew of black and white photographers. What digital gives us what we really didn't have in the film days is an easy workflow... shoot everything in color, and convert to black and white later. This way, you get the best of both worlds. Your digital negative in color with the ability to convert to black and white whenever you get the whim

Photographing Rare Clouds

Kevin Moss — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 19:42:59 +0000

ong time nut for photographing storms and clouds here. I do admit it. Been working on my "Sky" portfolio for years. On the night of June 23, 2010 we had some powerful storms roll through Michigan. Passing through early evening, we were presented with an extremely rare occurence of what is a newly designated cloud type; Undulus Asperatus clouds. I've only seen them just a few times in the past 20 years, but last night was the first opportunity for me to capture the images of these rare clouds. Turbulent motions between differing air masses create undulating clouds Meteorologists have proposed that these clouds be designated as the first new cloud type to be named in over 50 years: Undulus Asperatus.

Father and Son Landscape Photographers

Kevin Moss — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 19:58:12 +0000

INSPIRATION is the word of the day. As I've taught for years, the best way to be inspired, educated and motivated is to view the works of other photographers. Joining local camera clubs, reading the trade magazines every month, buying portfolio books from your local reseller or online is a great way to become inspired. Don't be afraid to purchase these from other photographers either. It helps promote eachother, and it will prove how open minded you are from learning from others.

Photography Above the Clouds

Kevin Moss — Mon, 17 May 2010 00:23:36 +0000

Millions of flights a year. Billions of fliers. Out of that many that travel the friendly skies, how many do you see taking photos through the window? If you haven't tried it, you might be pleasantly surprised at the results. If you're patient, lucky with light and sitting in a window seat away from the wing, there is nothing stopping you from passing the time working on your "sky" photography.

Spring Flower Photography

Kevin Moss — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 23:29:37 +0000

In my part of the country, spring usually comes late April. This year it sprung early, At this time in the year, and its only for about a week, the tree’s begin to bud, grass begins to grow again and turn green, and the marigolds begin to flower. For the nature photographer, it’s time to get back to work! The tree’s at this time of year begin to bud, and within a week, boom! They’re full of leaves. If you can catch the tree’s as they are blooming, you can get some very interesting images. The emergence of spring also means color for many photographers. The greys, blacks and whites are gone from winter, and the great outdoors starts to look good again. Bring out your macro lenses, it’s time to start shooting!

Blur as an Element of Composition

Kevin Moss — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 08:58:27 +0000

Not every image is a candidate for these types of techniques. After a while however, you'll start recognizing images that you'll want to experiment transforming into alternative photographs. I strongly suggest you start working on your abstract or blur portfolio, you may be pleased with the results, and you may be even more pleased with expanding your photographic horizons.
