All Day I Dream About Photography

It is time to share all the new blogs/photoblogs that answered my call. Although I did break my own “1 year” rule by a few months I couldn’t include blogs that have been running since 2006 or 2007 sorry !

So let’s get started

Blogs

1. “How I Took It” by Richard Hollins (RSS)
   Richard share with us how he took and processed some of his favorite shots
2. “Alltag eines Fotoproduzenten” by R. Kneschke (RSS)
   German stock photography blog
3. “More About Photography" by Mario Bucolo (RSS)
   Mainly interesting photography links that Mario shares with his readers

A couple of days ago @Plus961asked on twitter if it was possible to watermark pictures using Adobe Lightroom or if there was a need to “upgrade” to Adobe Photoshop.

Having no answers for the question back then I did some research on the issue and found out that it could indeed be done with the LR2/Mogrify plugin.

Here is a highlight about what you will need to use this plugin

• Download and install ImageMagick (windows users only)
• Download and install the LR2/Mogrify plugin
• And check this step by step tutorial to achieve the watermark

I received this by email today and it is simply too good not to share !

Sorry I have no idea who did it so I can’t give proper credits

If encountered a risky situation with your camera at hand, would you run or would you stop and shoot ?

A long time adidap reader and friend MIR is interested to know how far would a photographer go or how much would you risk to take a picture.

So if trapped in a hurricane, fire, war or other risky situation would you first think of fleeing away or grab some picture first?

Have you already faced this choice?

What would make you run? what would make you stand and shoot? is it the money? fame? sharing and transmitting the "moment" that otherwise would be lost ? …

4th of July is here & was trying to get creative and offer a firework shooting article when I have realized that everyone else already did !

So, instead, I gathered the best six articles I found so I can save you some time.

You still have a few hours so read them and, above all, don’t forget to have fun while shooting. Enjoy the show and share the pictures
