Inspired? Show Me - MBP 400th Birthday show

Saturday 14th December 22.30 WET, I took part in Martin Bailey's google plus Hangout. It was Martin's MBP 400th Birthday show and followers were invited to take part. The idea behind the live broadcast was to see if Martin has inspired you and perhaps changed your approach to photography? We all sent a photograph to Martin and while he was displaying the pictures we talked our way through them.

Along with myself , Darlene Hildebrandt, Valerie Jardin, Michael Rammell, Mike Whitten, Paul GriffithsEric Vogt, Andrzej Wiśniewski and Thysje Arthur all participated. My photograph was of a Bald Eagle below which I took at the Hawk Conservancy Trust in the UK. The Trust houses and rehabilitates birds of prey from around the World. If your click on the photo you can view the rest of my Hawk photo collection.

 

The Eagle was standing in his wooden hut, tethered to the ground and around 2 metres away. I had my Canon 60D with my Canon EF 100–400mm f/4.5–5.6L IS USM , in bright midday sun I had over exposed the background and bird to bring out the detail in the shadows without producing noise. The photograph has been cropped a little and it's only had the normal adjustments in Lightroom 4.

Martin has inspired me by shooting to the right of the histogram, which he explains on his podcast #381 shooting to the right over on itunes. Coupled with a low monitor brightness this has changed the quality of my raw files and the prints. I was honoured to be invited and play a part in this #400 MBP 400th Birthday Show. Can I say a huge thank you to Martin for all of the content he provided via his podcast and I hope to repay him one day by attending a workshop.

All of the photographs featured can be viewed over on www.martinbaileyphotography.com and if you click on iTunes or YouTube you can download and listen to the broadcast.

Again, thank you Martin..

Understanding the value of your work

In the last few months I've had people asking for permission to use my photographs. They seem to want the photos for free and then to use them to advertise or sell something. In one case, when I asked for free tickets in return for use of my photo's (instead of cash) , strangely they managed to find other photo's to use.

The latest one is asking to apply a photo on some products. After giving them the option to pay a sum of money for a limited licence or perhaps to work on a commission basis, they said "we are a small company and usually people on Flickr are happy to grant permission because they are thrilled about being asked". Is it me or are people allowing companies to make money off the back of your hard work and expensive equipment while expecting to offer you nothing.

How far would I get with Tesco or with any other company asking for free goods plus the permission to resell it for profit?. Answer, nowhere..

After speaking to Michael at RammellPhotography.com (@Rammellphoto on twitter), he suggested that I should ask them for use of their car at weekend's as a taxi. I wonder what the answer would be??..

I'm not asking for much in a world full of free photo content, but stop selling yourself short and ask for a fare price. Your not going to lose out , because they were going to give you nothing anyway.

Happy Shooting...

Stephen Cotterell has a chat with me over coffee

 Last Tuesday I had a chat over coffee with Stephen Cotterell for his Photography 121 Podcast   https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/photography-121/id425877463 Also, Michael Rammell Photography join me for the trip to London. After, Stephen gave us a parking ticket, we had a hug and a shake of hands, which put me completely at ease.  It's refreshing to meet a follow photographer with a passion for talking from the heart about photography.

Coffee made and we were off, no rules, no prepared questions and the recorder set.. For someone who has not been questioned about his photography before I found it a little troubling..

Stephen's skill at asking questions put me at ease and the hour went rather quick.. After listening back to the podcast I sometimes forgot what the question was and perhaps not answering with a straight answer, but that's me all over.

Three things I will take away from the chat is that, I need to

push my blogging more (Perhaps a Book). Never lose sight of a photo over the technical quality and lastly add an invoice to my work flow..

Can I say thanks to Stephen Cotterell once again and if you have time please leave a review on iTunes after listening to the podcast..
