Phottix’ New Odin Off-Camera E-TTL Wireless TriggerOff-Camera Flash Made Easy By Phottix
Let me set the record straight right here; I am not a strobist. Ninety five percent of the time I shoot with available light, the other five percent I shoot with my flash set to rear curtain sync (It’s fun. You should try it!) I really don’t like the ugly flat light that on-camera flashes give a subject. Off-camera lighting is wonderful, but until recently with a Canon you only got E-TTL metering by using the short irritating OC-E3 cable. more »Is Fear Your Art Director?Don’t let your fears call the shots in your photography.
This will be a short post. It’s really just a reminder to take advantage of the moment. This morning I went to Georgetown (Penang, Malaysia) scouting out some locations for an upcoming photo walk. As I was walking through Little India, I stopped and went inside a Hindu temple. These temples have always been inviting and friendly and I thought I might take some photos.

Unboxing: FloLight MicroBeam 128
Compact, Lightweight Light Proves That Good Things Do Come In Small Packages…
I’m currently doing some social media consulting for a great company you may have seen me cover in the past, FloLight. To familiarize me with their products, they were good enough to send me their MicroBeam 128, camera top, LED light. This is a great little light that is the perfect solution for HDSLR “Run & Gun” setups.
Why outsource portrait retouching?
Somebody out there actually cares as much about your portrait images as you do. The right relationship for image retouch and enhancement out of your studio can make your life faster, easier and cheaper while maintaining consistent quality.
This article begins a series of conversations with Neale Narang, head of business initiatives for ReadyRetouch.com. I really didn’t believe that anybody could or would be able to handle my images as well as I can. In the far distant past (2 ¼ and 4x5 film!) I did for a time outsource serious negative retouching - incidentally to a lady who did significant work for Penthouse and Playboy magazines. But I personally did all the print work with liquid dyes, flexichromes, lampblack and oils.
