Years ago with my Olympus EP2 I was glad there was one on a camera I bought mainly for holidays. It meant I could use the camera the way I am used to when taking portraits. At the time it was not that clear, didn’t refresh quickly and blacked out between shots making moving objects a challenge. Move forward to 2017 and the EVF is nearly as clear as an optical viewfinder, can track action shots ( the OMD-M1mk2 can shoot up to 60 frames a second ) and has an imperceptible blackout. These used to be my second cameras but now my traditional DSLRs sit on the shelf more and more.<br />
<br />
The main reason reasons are that the image quality is excellent and creates comparable images while having the advantage in ambient light that what you see in the viewfinder is the shot the way it will be captured. This is incredibly useful in situations where the light is rapidly changing. Once you try it it’s hard to go back.<br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have a retired neighbour who walks by the house walking his dog every day. He is a philosopher so needless to say we rarely talk about the weather. Yesterday was poetry and by extension songs.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">He asked first if I liked poetry then why. I said recently I haven't read much poetry, (time and distractions) but do hear songs. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The conversation on poetry, and by extension songs, took many turns. things like rhyme and rhythm helping us remember accurately or how some are encrypted and hard to figure out like a cryptic crossword. I'm not so into the tricky ones myself. What I said I like most is the way a writer can convey a sense of things that is both exact and inexact at the same time. A thought, a description or an emotion is painted in words that we see and feel in our own way. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As a creative photographer also you start with a mental image and then try to make and images that convey the subtleties of your vision through signs, symbols and significations.</span></div>

This is made even worse if your clients have written the numbers out of numerical order.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once you have a list:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In C1 edit menu > Select by > File name list</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here you paste in your list and select whether the names are separated by spaces as in vertical list of numbers or by commas in a comma delimited list. Click ignore extension so that if your client has chosen from jpg and you want to find RAW it will find them. Once selected you can choose to either 'move to selects folder' or 'make new album from selection' to isolate them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have some clients like ad agencies who are very tech savvy and provide ordered lists but also some non tech savvy clients who if not given a better option will send you selected images back with filenames chanced to something like coverimage.jpg which makes searching impossible except visually by date and time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For this I have started using shootproof.com which provides and easy interface for clients with no image software and provides me with a list of their selections I can paste into C1 and save hours of my life.</span><br />

The show is called "Curiositas" and is a series of exposures of people in a busy street. Those standing still are sharp. People smoking or having a pensive moment. The rest are blurred to different degrees depending on their speed or if they have come too close to the lens. The image are overall well composed and have a first layer tha quickly gets your attention. As you look there are more interesting zones both in the detailed and the abstract areas. To do this kind of work that you can't direct you need to go a place where you expect something to happen then try and seize the best moments. Later you need a real willingness to discard what you wanted to work but which didn't and to identify what does work even if it was really accidental like a test exposure.<br />

Historical, current revealing not just the content of the image but the motivations and process of the photographers, the intention and the random seen with intent. Curated by Paul MacDonald and Sandy Edwards there is a lot to look at and a lot to think about including many, many kinds of decisive moment. Some the classic interpretation, others the moment they clicked as photographers, another the moment he realised a photo had merit and many more. A treat. </span>http://contactsheet.com.auAnonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05448437546503615583noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-786305807966785204.post-25134391308590697732015-10-11T18:36:00.001+11:002015-10-11T18:36:21.690+11:00Justine Varga :: Bill Henson :: Sydney Contemporary<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A bit of a delayed reaction but working on the weekend upsets the rhythm. Not complaining. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A month ago I went to Sydney Contemporary and found it overall a much more interesting experience than previous years. Lots of good painting and interesting installation but coming back to photography I found two artists who are very different really help focus in on what I like in photography. When asked I usually find the answer has to do with simplicity and emotional resonance. This could be reportage, street photography or an intensely glamorous portrait. I admire a lot of heavily worked images, illustrations of a concept in the artists mind, from a rough collage to a polished where does reality end kind of image but they don't really excite me. The more it's cut back the more I like it like a polaroid that seized a unique moment in a unique example. Nothing wrong with multiples though.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In this exhibition two artists struck me. Bill Henson who's work I knew and Justine Varga who's work I didn't. Justine makes cameraless images. Have a <a href="http://www.artcollector.net.au/CoolhunterpredictionsJustineVarga" target="_blank">look</a> </span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05448437546503615583noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-786305807966785204.post-53426462661747205172015-08-09T14:37:00.002+10:002015-08-09T14:37:29.135+10:00up and coming<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">I was asked to do a portfolio review a few days ago for some students at CATC in Sydney. At many student exhibitions there may be one stand out or some good ideas imperfectly executed but this trio presented a three out of three of excellent work on very different themes. They had really well formed concepts and cut back the images to make a strong statement. Each portfolio was presented differently and in a way that suited the subject and they were technically excellent. rather than feel we were seeing diamonds in the rough I had a feeling I also was being presented with something to aspire to myself.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>HEATHER RAADGEVER</b> presented a series on loss that is not currently on her website. I was at once delicate and strong and brooding. The images contained only a few beautifully rendered items but this minimalist beauty led you to capture a deeper mood of yearning and sadness. The images are presented in the form of a book with beautiful pastel images printed on art paper. The book format allows you to see one or two at a time and dwell on them before seeing the rest.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><b>MICHELLE LAKE</b> presented as series of large prints of landscapes. We all felt they reminded us of something. Not particular geographic places but archetypal places that we hold in our mind from life, dreams, books and movies. Once again beautifully printed with intricate texture and detail in the darkest and lightest areas without making it feel like we were looking at an over manipulated image. She has an uncommon eye for taking a common scene and making magic.</span></span></div>

The images are clean and inviting and most importantly mouth watering. I liked the contras between her light and airy daylight shots and the crisp lit shots on gloss black. Her work was also presented in book form but I noticed it rendered even better on screen ( they looked great printed). This is not a problem but in fact a good thing as her ambition is blogging and instagramming and her images will have to draw attention on the small screen where images tend to be small and consumed quickly.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The latest of my studio lighting masterclasses kept us indoors on the kind of rainy cold Sunday you wouldn't want to be outside anyway. We covered working with different kinds of lighting and modifers and how they can work for beauty and portrait images. We had a good day with our model Tamara Valentine from Chadwicks and makeup by Stephanie Tetu and most clothing from Bronx + Banco.</span><br />

This time although some of the 11 artists work from a photographic base they are drawings paintings and sculptures. Amy is an interesting and dynamic person who counters the Zoolander stereotype and shows models as interesting people who also are very photogenic.</span><br />

At the Photograph and Australia at the AGNSW I had been told to expect a good collection of historical photographs as in photos with content of historical documentary interest which is largely true. It also got me interested in some of the processes of theme like <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_print"><span style="color: magenta;">carbon printing</span></a>. Carbon was used with gelatine to make prints that were fade resistant unlike silver based prints. There are some impressive examples by Frank Hurley. Another section talks about the popularity of "cartes de visite" which had a person's image on one side and about the size of a playing card. Apparently people collected them as we now collect friends on Facebook There is very little showing any use of photography as a political tool or mirror as one sees in photography of the early 20th century elsewhere. Not sure if it just didn't happen or it was a curatorial choice. So for the most part we are seeing people and places as they were. Some really interesting images in there and some surprisingly modern. This is compensated by the World Press Photo exhibition at the state library which is fully confrontational. The next room has the Sydney 1440 exhibition which is Sydney based and finally an exhibition of images of the Greek island of Lemnos. Modern day larger colour images have black and white wartime images pasted over them, each taken from the same viewpoint. The island is largely undeveloped and the scars of war have melted into the landscape.</span><br />

As I went to pick up a gift I received one myself in walking past Kudos Gallery, Jack Stahel's exhibition "Imaginary Science" is very impressive and engrossing. The mind, science, art, nature, our urge to categorise and keep and in my perception that the keeping removes the life force. The pictures on various sites do not do it justice as there are details within details all reflecting on something. until May 30</span><br />
