Reconsidering Winogrand by Nick Turpin

There's inherent risk in doing exactly what you want and doing it well.

Garry Winogrand, whose photographic output said both "look at us" and "look at me look at us" in equal (and thrilling) measures, knew well the width of that risk.

He took its measure, set it aside, and deliberately went about the work of widening photography (both what photography was, and what photography might become) with every click of his shutter.

Sean Teegarden - Portraits

Using the file's Red, Green, and Blue Channels, I found which color contained the most contrast that enhanced the important details.

I copied the information and pasted it into new layers.

I used a series of blend modes and layer masks to bring out striking detail and retain great value and color.

I employed burn/dodge layers to emphasize shadows and finally employed sharpening and blurring to make every little "Character" jump off the page.

Buying Smart; Scanning Options For Negatives And Slides; Bring Out Your Shoeboxes! by Jon Sienkiewicz

Unless you were born after 1990 (and maybe even if you weren't) you have a box full of negatives and slides somewhere, and some of them are pretty damn good.

And you've thought about scanning the better ones "one of these days" but never got around to it because, well—here comes the BS again.

Long Exposure by Jennifer Allen

Photography is dead.

That news may come as a surprise, since obituaries about art tend to be written about painting.

Invented in the 1830s, photography is still in its infancy as an art form compared to the centuries-old medium of painting.

Despite inventions like portable paint tubes and fast-drying acrylic, painting has not undergone the transformations that digitalization is bringing to the medium of photography.

Neighborhood Treasure

It can take years to feel at home in a new area.

At first it's just a place with unfamiliar streets, restaurants you might like to try, and shops that look interesting from the outside.

But over time you see yourself reflected in parts of the city, and begin to block out the rest.

Certain patches of sidewalk almost feel like they should be worn down by your foot traffic.

But these familiar spots aren't always your favorites.

Sometimes it's the anomaly — new, foreign, exotic — that attracts, and sometimes it's the rare treat.

Consider your local treasures while viewing this collection of haunts and hangouts.
