Last night our President of the United States of America was on the Jay Leno Show making a guest appearance for the nightly fans of the popular talk show.
President Obama shared a half hour with us live on T.V. giving us the up to date scoop on the economy and the future he has planned for us all. During his talk, the President also showed his friendly side. Sharing his humor and family oriented thoughts on raising his children, making sure his family is happy and best of all stressing his goal in improving America?s way on Education, The Work Force and Energy.
I know that this kind of talk by our leader is expected when he is talking in public, but I am one that has to say I am proud to finally have someone in office that has a big focus on these issues. It?s been a while since I heard someone stress about the improvement of education. Last I remember education is where it all begins! (more…)
When we go shooting out doors we highly depend on the natural light of the sun to help us out and get the results we expect during the day. I am one that packs my trunk with just about everything I have to make the light go where I want it to go.
I like to shoot early in the morning to high noon. After 2 or 3pm I start packing my gear to head back to the lab. Reason me doing this is because I always like the results I get when the sun is at it’s highest peak. The more natural light I can take advantage of, the comfortable I feel when shooting outside. If the shoot passes my “wrap-up time” I rely a ton on my reflectors and diffusers. Bouncing the light from one spot to another and softening the light when needed takes a while to get perfected, but when you get it down right along with the right help you can come up with some interesting results.
If you don’t have reflectors or diffusers you can go with a substitute from any craft store like A.C.Moore or Joanne’s and pick up some white project boards and get some creative light from bouncing the sun from the white boards onto your subject. As for your substitute diffuser, I’ve used several different sizes of thin weight white fabric that’s nearly translucent… and can do the job as well. Fabric also can be found at either location as well.
Below is a short video I found and I thought I’d share with you guys/gals on reflecting and diffusing. Giving you an idea to bouncing and diffusing light if your new to this step.
I’ve been into graphic designs since I was about 5 or 6 years old. I remember watching my dad and uncles come home at night after putting in many man hours on the press with samples of the work they had just finished running. They both arrived happy with the quality of work they produced and even happier knowing the customer was happy and is sure to come back with more jobs for them to produce in the future.
