Free your thoughts

Hello all
I have been going back and forth with concepts and tried to elaborate the same concept with many different approaches. Captivity is one of them and here is one of my attempts.
I went with silhouette mood because I thought it will add more emotion to the image and will give the captive rose a more sad appeal.

Night photography

Hello all
I took this shot in Beirut Lebanon, a very lively city by the Mediterranean.
Night photography is very rewarding as most of the distracting objects
will fade into the darkness.
A tripod is a must as you will need a small aperture to get the best result.
What I love about this image is that it reflects the spirit of that area.
I also just finished updating my website and I had to think hard of what to
include, although I will be adding more images very soon.

Getting organised

Hello folks
I've been away for a while, just got back from a two month trip to Lebanon.
After loads of shoots I'm facing the drama of organising all these files, but I must
admit that Lightroom is a lifesaver, the library module is just fantastic, once you get around the features you will fall in love with it. Getting all your files captioned and keyworded is priceless
specially if you submit your work to different agencies with different exclusivity levels.
Unfortunately I learned this the hard way after 3 years of submissions I ended up with a clogged hard drives and things were getting messy. One good read I highly recommend is The Dam .
Digital asset management becomes so easy its unbelievable, it covers all aspect of digital photography when it comes to organizing and backing up your files.

Shooting for book covers

If getting your work published on book covers interest you then a trip to the bookstore every now and then is a must. You get to see what kind of images are being used. You can always find something that match your style of work.
Inspiration is another thing you will benefit from keeping a close look at the market.
These are some of the books that I was lucky enough to get the tearsheets of.

Moody portraits

I'm experimenting a lot recently with light, trying to add more drama to the portraits, its amazing how the feel of an image change simply by changing your lights. Getting the right level is a key as always.
