HT2192 - Monochrome Viewfinder As a lifetime black and white photographer, I have to admit that I do not see in black and white. Some photographers have that uncanny skill, but I simply don't. I need help to see in black and white. I used to use the Fred Picker monochrome viewing filter, but now I just set my cameras to monochrome in my viewfinder.…

HT2191 - No Visible Difference, or Megapixel Agnostic The other day I saw a YouTube reviewer make a comment that they can't see any difference between 44 megapixels and 60 megapixels .I'm working on a small project that will probably include 15 or so images. Curiously enough, about half of these images were shot with a 16 megapixel camera, the othe…

HT2190 - Sensor Noise in High Frequency Images No one likes noise. The techniques and tools for eliminating noise in a digital photograph abound. But no one ever seems to ask whether or not we really need to eliminate it. I recently discovered a situation in which the noise generated at ISO 12800 was invisible and I felt no need to go after it.…

HT2189 - Black Point It is so easy in digital processing to set a black point. I've seen with regularity digital gurus set a black point for every image as one of their first steps in processing. Does every image need a black point?Autor: Brooks Jensen

HT2188 - Repeat the Theme, Not the Image Multi-image projects can be tricky to produce. How do we create a group that holds together as a group without becoming repetitious? Maybe we can see a clue to this conundrum by studying old Ludwig – Beethoven, that is.Autor: Brooks Jensen

HT2187 - Do We Need Self-destructing Artwork? I've often thought that the worst thing we can do to stifle our creativity is to amass a large collection of our own work. Once we have a closet full of prints, there arises a natural impulse to rest on our laurels. We think, we've already done it, or we've run out of room to store any more, or all the …

HT2186 - Refining the Project I've learned a valuable photographic lesson by watching people who draw, that is who start with a blank page and a pencil. Their process is always to roughly sketch the basic shapes first, then refine, refine, and refine. That same approach works for developing a photography project, too. Well over ¾ of my creative tim…
