Light It Magazine for iPad

Hey Everyone,
The fine folks over at Kelby Media have come out with a new publication dedicated to Lighting for photographers. This is strictly for the iPad, and has an amazing collection of great photographers writing for it. The first issue is free. (Seems a little like a Crack Dealer, "The first hit is free") Trust me, this thing is gonna be as addictive, i mean if your looking to learn about lighting, if your not then you would probably care less. But if you are and own an iPad, head over and pick up the first issue.

"I'm on a Boat" Images.

Last weekend I took the ferry to Orcas Island, which is one of the San Juan Islands north of Seattle. As you might expect, everyone crowded to the rail to shoot the standard landscape/water “I’m on a boat” shots. Here is one that i took.




This cleared my way to head down to the underbelly of the ferry, where the grungy inner workings and structural elements were going completely unappreciated. 

It was a beautiful hour-long ride. Rich textures and patterns in the steel led to meticulously arranged pipes and hoses. Unique valves were their own art objects. And much of the parking deck was unoccupied, exposing a vast expanse of concrete with brightly painted lanes and captivating symmetry.
