Thanks for your question Bart, here's his response (I really wish he'd make and account here and answer all this himself, I know he is following this thread) " You can keep unto 10 images and switch out existing images with new ones. Each image is not evaluated. The Artist is evaluated on a...

Thanks ever so much for your responses/queries. All great questions. I forwarded the link to my friend and this is his response - " This is probably the first, or at least one of a very few curated Online Galleries that cater to Photography only. With other large Galleries, photography is one...

A dear friend has started an online art gallery with the intent of curating photographs and have photographers reach out to a discerning audience. The artist is responsible for pricing his/her own art, printing on archival paper, and delivering it to the patron and retains complete creative...

I've been Hemmingway-ing it all my life utterly convinced I won't last a day beyond 35. Here I am at a bewildering 41 addicted to buying cameras and then ignoring them once bought. Happy birthday Pete!

Luke. the more I think about your store, the more I feel that you shouldn't rally against the online selling space. In fact I think that it's the best thing to happen to your store. Instead of targeting more customers, you should probably recognize that you're operating in a niche "luxury"...

I came across a brilliant counterpoint to Luke's article, especially as it relates to the music industry. The business of music has never been healthier. The artists are finally able to directly retail to their audience, targeting smaller niches that were poorly served by big music labels. One...

It's 2:50 in the AM here in Bangalore and a very pleasant 20C/71F. Good to see you back Herman.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to everyone. Here's wishing you lots of love and happiness.

I just bought my first light meter. Can't wait to start shooting with artificial light with a bit more control on the outcome.

He needs the Hasselblad H5X obviously.

I didn't see a Black Friday thread, so thought I'd start one. Please post any deals you come across here. Here is a great deal I came across - Nikon Coolpix A $500 off -...

Used to be 35mm, then I bought the GR and I started loving the 28mm and now I bought the wide angle adapter so now it's at 21mm. I should really look at taking the adapter off sometime.

Wow. I really liked the images. I just wish they were larger in size so that I could give them a more careful scrutiny.

What won't Meatloaf do??!!? That &%$@&%$@!!

Can't stop listening to this one

Jock I see a Hasselblad in your future.

One or two pictures get edited immediately as soon as I get back home and look through the day's work. This is a quick gut reaction, and tends to be the best ones I've shot. But I get back to the rest after at least 24 hours or more. Sometimes even a week or a month. Nowadays I'm forcing myself...

It's Friday night here, getting ready to head out with friends, this is what is playing in the background at full volume -

I'm sure you've come across Sigur Rós if you've seen any modern independent movies in the last 5 years. Makes for intense background scores, usually used in closing credits. I possibly posted an extreme example of their work. But I'd agree that their stuff is a bit of an acquired taste.

Right now I've listened to this song about 6000 times. This bloke (kutiman) finds various musicians on youtube and then splices their tracks to create new songs. This is the best time in human history for making/creating/sharing music. The power is back with the people, wrested away from...

Brilliant! This is too cool John. Just don't mention newcameranews.com or they'll know you for the lunatic you are.

I have a bunch of Apple stuff, though I wouldn't identify as an Apple fan-boy. I love mechanical watches and I feel we can do without another screen to power up every day. Also right now there just isn't a compelling reason to buy a smart watch, it does exactly what your phone can do, and it...

Thanks! I do get where they're coming from though. This apartment is very much a bachelor pad. Hopefully the newer space I'm moving into won't make them feel that way!

Thanks Ray, much appreciated. The problem with being in the design business is that it makes one a bit less sentimental about spaces. It's always the last thing one does that holds one's attention. I'll still own this space, but will let it out 'as is' and hope that someone else will enjoy and...

It's only 500 odd square feet Sue. Really tiny.

Thanks John. I'm a sucker for anything Milo Baughman. It's actually a tiny little apartment that I moved into after a particularly troubling period in my life. The pictures were taken by a photographer friend for a post on apartmenttherapy.com I'll be moving out soon, though I'll miss the...

Drat!

This is from the day I moved in. I wish it still looked like this.

John, I'm not sure if you've seen Philip Bloom's video review of the Sony A7s. It's astonishing. This camera can see in the dark

My "lounge" (ha!) is the living room in my apartment. Do post pictures of your "lounge" as well.

An A7s and will shoot videos of everyone falling over drunk.

I'm sorry for your loss Sue. I hope you're holding up well.

I think the monkey is being shortchanged hugely. He should be handed all the royalties from the image. And then we could film him as he sat and ate the money he'd made.

I watched The Wire a few years ago. All five seasons. Binge watched it all strung together. A most fascinating example of what can be achieved in long form story telling. Nothing on TV has been able to hold my attention as much since. It effectively killed off watching serials on TV for me. I...

Jpg vs RAW (why isn't there a poking oneself in the eye emoticon, which would fit right in here?)

Luke that second image (the one with the balloons) belongs in a gallery.

Not sure if you guys have come across Chris Cornell's (Greenday) fabulous soulful version of Billie Jean

It's bloody hot in Bangalore. I have my air conditioner running full blast,

Maybe we could hook up HCB to a generator and solve the world's energy crisis? [video=youtube;Z8yW5cyXXRc]

I blame Apple for forcing everyone to make shinier things.

Well hell. That was unexpectedly lovely. It was amazing seeing so many of your pictures in one post. I usually get to see one image posted in isolation, and to me it's akin to seeing a decapitated Buddha head at a museum under a glass case which has a plaque reading, "Yakshi, circa 1440", and...

Take care Sue. I hope everything turns out fine.

If your camera allows it, shoot in "bw jpgs + RAW". That way you see and review in black and white in camera, and have the RAWs to work with on the computer. That's how I set up my X100 95% of the time.

I wouldn't call it a "hobby", but the only other thing I'm obsessed with apart from photography is coffee. In fact my 'retirement' plan is to open a coffee shop that sells obscure photography gear, which would also double up as an art gallery. I'd die poor, but I'd die happy.

Reminds me of the Einstein mask illusion [video=youtube;ORoTCBrCKIQ]

Happy new year everyone! Here's a picture from new years on the beach last year. This year was a quiet evening with friends. Wishing everyone lots of good cheer and health, and enough wealth to not let gas be anything more than a minor inconvenience!
