HT2086 - Expanding the Delivery Medium 2:43

21h ago2:43

2:43

HT2086 - Expanding the Delivery Medium I had a fascinating experience yesterday that I think offers us photographers something to think about. I went to a live performance of the Metropolitan Opera of New York that was streamed to our local movie theater.Di Brooks Jensen

HT2085 - Commentary Beyond the Photograph 2:43

2d ago2:43

2:43

HT2085 - Commentary Beyond the Photograph In workshop and photo group critique sessions that I've observed over 50 years, almost all the comments offered are about technique, composition, or gear related. Such comments might be useful for beginning students, but a much more helpful kind of comment has to do with the content, the feelings the photog…

HT2084 - Digital vs Optical Zoom 2:43

3d ago2:43

2:43

HT2084 - Digital vs Optical Zoom A lens captures a finite amount of detail in a finite image circle on the film plane. Increasing the size of that circle through digital zoom does not increase the amount of detail that was captured; it just makes it bigger. This is known as "empty magnification." Optical zoom from the same position, however, captur…

HT2083 - Getting Closer 2:43

4d ago2:43

2:43

HT2083 - Getting Closer A universal rule in photography is to get closer to the content. This may not mean getting physically closer. The idea of getting closer means different things for different subjects. For example, getting closer to a distant landscape probably implies using a longer lens. Conversely, getting closer in street photography prob…

HT2082 - Narrowing the Subject 2:43

2:43

HT2082 - Narrowing the Subject There are subjects that lead to short projects, and subjects that lead to lengthy projects. Both kinds of projects have their virtues and their drawbacks. The real problem, however, is when as producers we give our audience mixed signals.Di Brooks Jensen

HT2081 - Location Specifics vs Generalities 2:43

2:43

HT2081 - Location Specifics vs Generalities A couple of years ago I had the opportunity to photograph in the famous Ryoan-ji Temple gardens in Kyoto. It was the fulfillment of a life-long dream to photograph there. Curiously enough, that brought me face to face with a fundamental decision: Do I make a project about the Ryoan-ji gardens or use those…

LW1428 - A Firehose of Images 12:54

12:54

LW1428 - A Firehose of Images Too much of a good thing can lead to a numb response. I was reminded of this while I was looking through a sizable book in the presence of the photographer. After the first 50 images, my attention began to wane. After 100 images, I was numb. All previous episodes of our weekly podcast are available to members of LensWo…

HT2080 - Photoshop Doubts 2:43

2:43

HT2080 - Photoshop Doubts We photographers have always known that there's a tenuous relationship between photography and truth. Trick photography goes back to the earliest days of the medium. But now, in the age of Photoshop, it's so easy for people to assume that the spectacular thing we've captured with our cameras is a Photoshop fake.…

HT2079 - Where You Live 2:43

8d ago2:43

2:43

HT2079 - Where You Live There is landscape photography, urbanscape photography, and more. Why not "homescapes" that use everyday life at home to create an environmental portrait that doesn't need to include people. Not "House Beautiful," but rather House Lived In.Di Brooks Jensen

HT2078 - From Where You Sit 2:43

9d ago2:43

2:43

HT2078 - From Where You Sit So many times, the process of photographing involves moving to location or a position where you can see a lovely scene and composition. Since I've had problems with my back these last few years, my mobility has been compromised. I can't hike or backpack the way I used to. My most frequent way of photographing these days …

HT2077 - Substantial Artwork 2:43

2:43

HT2077 - Substantial Artwork Last year, I was showing some chapbooks to another photographer who commented that they preferred more substantial ways of presenting their work. What an interesting way to think about our work. Substantial? What makes photography more or less substantial?Di Brooks Jensen

HT2076 - It's Been Photographed Before 2:43

11d ago2:43

2:43

HT2076 - It's Been Photographed Before I know photographers who are hesitant to do something that's been done before, but it occurs to me that there is a premise behind that reaction that is not necessarily true. The premise is that the virtue lies in the subject itself, not in the experience had.Di Brooks Jensen

HT2075 - Questions About Instax 2:43

12d ago2:43

2:43

HT2075 - Questions About Instax I guess I've been hiding under a barrel, but I just this week learned about Fuji Instax printers. I can see them easily becoming a fun gimmick at a party or a social gathering, but I'm wondering if anybody has figured out how to use this medium for more serious artwork. Any ideas?…

2:43

HT2074 - Cameras Support Your Creativity, Or Not One thing our annual LensWork community book project has proven beyond any doubt is that, when it comes to publishing anyway, high quality images can be produced with any camera. If that's so, then what criteria should we use when selecting our tools?Di Brooks Jensen

LW1427 - Art That Uses Photographs 12:54

14d ago12:54

12:54

LW1427 - Art That Uses Photographs In recent years, at least for my own work, I've come more and more to realize the difference between "photographic art" and, a quite different thing, "art that uses photographs." Rarely now do I find that a processed and printed image is the end of the process. More frequently that's just the beginning phases of a…

HT2073 - Done Is Not Always Concluded 2:43

14d ago2:43

2:43

HT2073 - Done Is Not Always Concluded Most often, we are drawn to photograph those subjects we are passionate about. Once we've had the exhibition, published the book, posted the web gallery, that doesn't mean our passion for the subject ends; we keep photographing. What do we do with these post-publishing images? Thank goodness for second editions…

HT2072 - Time For It to Marinate 2:43

15d ago2:43

2:43

HT2072 - Time For It to Marinate Instagram seems to have taken over the world of photography. I don't participate via Instagram because I believe it's important that images have an opportunity to mature, for us to think about them a little bit, for their meaning and metaphors to ripen. The idea of instantly posting an image just captured seems to s…

2:43

HT2071 - Skill Means Little Without a Heart That Drives It Skill can easily be taught, but skill alone does not make art. Sensitivity, compassion, empathy are developed within us, over time, with purpose. These are the necessary ingredients to create artwork that is meaningful.Di Brooks Jensen

HT2070 - Advice On a Great Place to Go 2:43

2:43

HT2070 - Advice On a Great Place to Go My experience with other photographers has been that they are generous and kind. They're always willing to give me helpful advice of where to go photographing. That advice, however, is typically the result of their having made successful images there. But the kinds of images I make, or want to make, might be e…

HT2069 - The Composed Background 2:43

18d ago2:43

2:43

HT2069 - The Composed Background In every picture there exists a foreground and a background. To be more precise about this, there are the things you want your viewer to see, and there is the context against which the subject is seen. Our primary task in composing and processing is to direct the viewer to what we want them to see. The background/co…

HT2068 - On Abstractions 2:43

19d ago2:43

HT2068 - On Abstractions Abstracts are one of the most puzzling types of photography that fascinates me. Emotionally connecting with an abstract is rare, but so powerful, so unpredictable, so fickle.Di Brooks Jensen

HT2067 - Brevity Is the Soul 2:43

20d ago2:43

2:43

HT2067 - Brevity Is the Soul I know that Shakespeare was talking about the soul of wit, but I've come to conclude it is the soul of photography, too. At least it can be. How often do you look at a book or a project and wish there was more? As compare to, how many times to you find yourself looking at a project or a book and feeling like it is getti…

LW1426 - More Captures, or More Artwork 12:54

21d ago12:54

12:54

LW1426 - More Captures, or More Artwork I'm of the school of thought that when you've clicked the shutter and made another capture, you haven't made artwork, yet. So what will you do with this precious day, evening, hour? Do you need more captures? Or, would your time be better spent making a print or some other finished piece of art? All previous …

HT2066 - Way to Go, God 2:43

21d ago2:43

2:43

HT2066 - Way to Go, God My friend Joe Lipka (who is a lifelong practicing Catholic) will often set up his tripod to capture a beautiful landscape with the words, "Way to go, God!" I've come to recognize this as a type of photography. No one would ever think this about a novel, a piece of music, a poem, or sculpture.…

HT2065 - The Forgotten Ones 2:43

22d ago2:43

2:43

HT2065 - The Forgotten Ones Buried in your Lightroom catalog are tons of images that deserve deeper attention. I have no doubt about this. I have faith that each time you click the shutter you do so because there was something that connected with you. That is, you've never clicked the shutter on a purposeful loser. Those potential images in your ca…
