All Day I Dream About Photography

I have been experimenting with some HDR photography and I have a question for all you HDR photographers out there

Do you like surreal HDR ?
or
Do you prefer more natural ones ?

I left a poll here for you to answer. It would be interesting to see the general trend about HDR . Also please feel free to post links to some of your HDR work in the comment for some extra inspiration for us all

What is boudoir photography?

Boudoir photography is a subset of glamor photography and a type of portraiture that specializes in bringing out the hot and sexy in women and portrays them in truly breath taking sensual, flirtatious look and poses.

If you want to start boudoir just out of pure enthusiasm and interest or as part of your career in photography, Ed Verosky can help you just do that in his book “10 ways to improve your boudoir photography now”.

A lucky reader will win a free copy of the e-book, to enter the draw just leave a comment here with a valid email address.

I will not spoil the fun of reading the book for you, but I’ll only go through the main topics outlined in the 44 pages so you know what to expect when reading.

The photographer of this week is Shobeir Ansari, he is using photography and his love for outdoors as the perfect combination to try and capture the beauty in the wild. Quoting him from his profile “I seek out rural locations on the weekends and after-work hours to experience true wilderness, away from crowds, cities, and the stress of everyday life.”
I am sure many of us are familiar with that feeling, so your escape for today in our post is through Shobeir’s lenses, enjoy his top 10 pictures and don’t forget to visit his photostream.

Each one of us tend to show only his best pictures and this is quite normal. However you best picture today might, and probably won’t, be your best picture of tomorrow.

I am amazed when I notice how much my taste and pictures have changed over time, I am not saying that I am good but I surely have improved. At least I am happy with my progress and this is very important.
