Just got the call from a friend of Bradley’s that the Burnaby Board of Trade needs a photographer for their event tonight. Sorry to the folks at Launch Party v6 but I won’t be there this time.
[From Burnaby Board of Trade - Upcoming Events at the Burnaby Board of Trade]
Now I have to think about gear, and clothes and …
Wait I do have work before that.
Crap.
If you’re at the event, come over and say hi. I’ll be guy with the big honkin’ camera around his neck.

Over the weekend I went to Seattle for a little shopping and while Sheila was browsing bead stores (she makes amazing jewelry), I took pictures around the stores. At our last stop I was playing with small apertures for some landscapes (f/16 to be exact). I wasn’t really getting what I was looking for so after shooting a few other things, I decided to take a picture of an interesting light pole on the street and got this:

Like all art forms, photography is a life-long pursuit. Of course, we all “learned” how to take pictures in a few minutes—especially with today’s point-n-shoot cameras—but for those of us who strive to go beyond the basic snapshot, it takes work. Work and a ton practice, patience, and humility. The practice part is pretty easy. Take lots of pictures. Experiment. Emulate pics that you like and see if you can do the same thing. Humility?
Yes. I don’t think there is a photographer worth his/her salt who can’t learn something new. [...]

As photographers we’ve all had the situation where someone has asked us why we’re taking pictures and/or asked us to stop. While taking photographs in public is a right in the US and Canada, it’s a good idea to know your rights, the rules, and a few tips.

However, is shooting in auto or one of the presets a bad thing? According to Natalie Norton writing on digital photography school, shooting in automatic has a lot of benefits:

I’m so excited about this. At Affiliate Summit West in Vegas last month I took a lot of pictures (Affiliate Summit set on Flickr) so as it was wrapping up I told Missy and Shawn that I’d be happy to be their official photographer for future summits.
Well as I say "luck favours the bold"–the hired me for Affiliate Summit Boston Aug 10-12!
I’ve told a lot of you already and Kris Krug gave me one of the best compliments I could get–that my pics were certainly good enough for that gig. [...]
