After the storm…

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III__TS-E24mm f/3.5L__1/180 sec at f / 16__ISO 100

Yesterday we had a wonderful morning of fog after the night’s rain storm.  I have driven by this location many times in the past, made note of its potential, and finally got myself over there after the morning’s usual parental duties!  Unfortunately, I started out with the wrong lens so I lost some good light making the short dash back to my vehicle to grab my Canon 24mm Tilt Shift lens.  Happily, the fog was still great as I exposed this image.  The lens was shifted up to near its highest position to maintain proper perspective and avoid convergence of the trees.  Also, I positioned the sun so that it was mostly blocked by the tree, with just a tiny bit of light showing through my viewfinder.

Enjoy!   Bill

Agave in Color

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

Agave, Island of Maui • Wista SP4x5 Field Camera

I am posting the color rendition of my Agave, Hawaii photograph.  I am very pleased with both versions.

Do you prefer one over the other?  I am leaning towards the BW version, but still love the rich color and strong contrasting lines seen here.

Enjoy!   Bill

New BW Agave image…

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Agave, Island of Maui, Hawaii

Here is a newly scanned 4×5 image of an agave taken on Maui in 1994.  We are working on both color and BW versions, and found many compelling directions.  Thanks to John O’Connor for the great scanning and PS work.  Stay tuned for more variations.  I think that there is an article to write about exploring many options with one image.

Thanks for joining me here,

Bill

Forest Fog in BW

Friday, November 6th, 2009

John and I are working on a new update of my Meditations in Monochrome portfolio.  This version will be available in book form as a Deluxe Edition with a fine art print.  I am hoping to get it all online by Thanksgiving.  This version will include some new images, including the new Forest Fog image attached here.  I consider the new edit as an “upgrade” to the original e-book Meditations in Monochrome- Digital Edition!  Many of us, in spite of the great advantages of a digital portfolio, prefer to hold a book or photograph in our hands to truly appreciate fine photography!

Last holiday season, we offered a Deluxe Edition book of my Impressions of Light portfolio which was a successful release and is still available:

Impressions of Light – Deluxe Edition
Photographs by William Neill
Sadhna Press, 2008

Give me your feedback on this image, and keep an eye out for the new book!

Regards,  Bill
