Bring that tripod…..

Yeah we all know that feeling.
Always you bring your tripod and never use it... and than that one time you did not bring it..... you want to do some night shooting.
Luckily I could borrow one from our friends at Capture Integration in Atlanta but otherwise I would have missed these shots.
So the next time... well just bring the bloody thing.
I think I'm gonna look for a carbon fiber one, at least it's not that heavy.

Some Impossible blue scans
Polaroid, which photographer (and non photographer) doesn't love the stuff?
When Polaroid stopped making the film a lot of people were feeling bad about it, but then there was "the Impossible project" rebuilding the instant film following and materials. I think they are doing pretty good because you see the film popping up everywhere and they keep making improvements.
When I visited the store in Vienna I bought some Impossible Blue film, it was already "tricky" by then and it's now 2 years later so to be honest I kept my fingers crossed to see if something usable would come out, but to my surprise it did, it's not perfect but it also adds a bit to the charm I think.

The eyes, the eyes !!!
the million dollar question however is always "How do you shoot this"
One of the things I like about shooting masks is the way how it takes away the expression of the mouth and face, now one could think "that's important right?" well yeah it is, but..... by using a mask you actually get the option to add a lot more expression on the eyes. And that's what I really like about this, the images are actually way more intense than without the mask, eyes are indeed the mirror to the soul and the place of most expression, although normally we are more drawn towards the mouth for expression for example a laugh, a scream etc. When you take this away you can actually see how important eyes can be.
Some heavy postprocessing
As you know I'm not really into heavy processing, but sometimes…
Quite Frankly : Photography tips
During workshops I share a lot of information including some smaller tips and tricks that can really spice up your shoot, business or photo. Thanks to our buddy Glyn Dewis we got the idea it would make a really cool videowebpodcast including those tips. The idea of the videowebpodcast is that we release at least one tip each week, the tips will range from street/travel, model, sports etc. photography to Photoshop/Lightroom/Plugins but also tips on business/social media etc. can be expected, whatever I think could help a viewer out we will film into a tips episode.
