Up early again. . .
Not sure I really like this trend.
I mean sure I have a ton of work to get done today … . Lightroom finally finished rendering 1:1 previews on 9000 photos, and so now I actually have to go through them all.
But still.
Oh well. To work!

So today I start really working on my portfolio
I have 9000+ digital photos go to through, and hundreds upon hundreds of 35mm Black & White negatives.
I’m realizing, for one thing, that I’m not really using light room to its full potential. I use the editing features heavily, but I don’t tag any of my photos, they’re just all imported into folders. Some by date, some by event name, it’s totally random.
I have...

EDIT: I love that on NPR Lakshmi Singh called BBC reporter “Will Grant,” who reported on this, “Hugh Grant” RIGHT AFTER issuing a correction about something she said earlier. HAHA!

i wanna do this so badly but i’m nervous
I’m also about to attempt that. Professional fashion photogs used to use Polaroid backs to test out their lighting, before taking the real shot on film.
So don’t be afraid to use your digital camera as a neo-Polaroid back, and then take the final shot on film after you’re sure everything’s right.

Are 35mm point-and-shoot cameras better than...
This just occurred to me: Could 35mm point-and-shoot cameras possibly be better than cheaper, e.g. sub $200 digital point-and-shoots?
All 35mm cameras are, no matter how crappy, “full frame”.
Maybe the worst of the worst film 35mm cameras are terrible, and I’m sure single-use cameras are as well, but what about old 35mm point and shoot cameras that have real (and by real I mean...

Really. Everything. You don’t have any, you know, favorites…. no? You just listen to “whatever’s on the radio”? Oh my God. How about Owl City? You like that one song by them, huh? How about Ke$ha? You think she’s catchy? How about the yowls of a domestic tabby being raped by a Scottish wildcat? Get the hell out of here. I bet you have 300 bands on your iPod and...
