Sculptural Pursuit Radio
I participated with Marilyn Noble (Managing Editor) & Nancy DeCamillis (Publisher/Executive Editor) of Sculptural Pursuit Magazine in their monthly internet radio blog "Photographing Your Sculpture." You can still listen to and leave comments about the broadcast in the archive. Just follow the link below. In their next magazine issue, July 2009, I will have a article about photographing sculpture. Look for it on newsstands around the end of July. The radio blog was a fun time and hopefully we were able to help their listeners.

Tidbit Tuesday

What can you create with a hole? This image of Maeser Elementary was created with a hole, in specific a pinhole!
Pinhole photography involves using a light-tight container of some type for the camera, a light sensitive media (film or photographic paper) to receive the image, and a "pinhole" to act as a lens to allow light to enter and form the image on the light sensitive material. Pinhole cameras have taken almost every shape and size. Before the advent of light sensitive material, people as far back as the fifth century BC have understood and used the "pinhole" principles. Aristotle and da Vinci among others understood and used pinholes.
No lens, no glass, no Photoshop!
