A couple favorites

I don’t have a lot of photos to show for this weekend, but here were a few I was able to sneak in. Had a great time with a great group and look forward to seeing your best shots of the “most photogenic place in Texas.”

Fort Phantom Hill evening

Thanks to Nil Santana and Donald Simpson for again helping our second faculty/staff lightpainting evening go so smoothly. Long-exposure shooting–like so much of digital photography–is a lot of experimentation, but fortunately the film is cheap.

If you joined us, please consider sharing a few of your favorites to the blog. For instructions on posting photos, see the Post by Email page.

To see and comment on the photos of other participants, click on the red Email Blog Posts link in the right sidebar. Look forward to seeing what everyone came away with.

  1. Really great detail shots from around town but the two portraits are my favorite. Creates a really nice thoughtful pose choosing not to look into the camera. Great choices.

  2. Great photos all the way around. The Essence of Sirloin is a nice curiosity, but the night shot of the tree and tower and of the river reflections are really nice. Great use of existing light.

    The unconventional perspective on the water tower is nice and the haunting portrait of that guy in a bar is gripping–he seems like he may pull a knife on you at any moment.

    Nice work, Paul.

  4. Really like the strange hanging lamp shades against the rustic wooden wall. Just engaging shapes, creating and breaking a pattern.

    The leaf poking through the floor/fence is still one of my favorites. It feels as if it’s all on one focal plane but there is still some nice soft focus around the edges, and the pop of green at the center of what feels like a black-and-white background. Simple but really nice.

    Thanks for joining us in Marfa. The barber shop photo reminds me that we could easily run an entire workshop of street photography here. Nicely composed.

    Lots of great shots, but the sharpness of your foreground tree as the river recedes behind is easily my favorite. Just pulls your attention immediately to it. Nice!

  8. Love all the night shooting, but the intensity of the color on the soundboard shot is stunning. Gives us the feeling of an exclusive back-stage pass (as opposed to an opportunely open window).

    I just love the attempt to create a motion blur shot with the farmer speeding by on that tractor. That’s commitment.

    Such great color. What white balance settings were you using or did you color later?
