It was fun reading all the great attempts to deconstruct the photo from Monday's post. As you might imagine, many of you got close or even nailed some of the components, and many of you were way in left field. And that's exactly what I expected, especially since this image has some tricky, unexpected stuff going on. At any rate, here's the debrief: Concept: This image is really a snapshot. I confess to liking it... read more ›

http://www.facebook.com/v/122990946404You asked for more behind the scenes stuff, so I'm doing my best to deliver. This quick, very recent vid is from the morning of a shoot for a global ad campaign. Contracts and lawyers make it so I can't show any details, but I thought there's plenty to take away from the general buzz that's going on. Sort of fun. I know this is super lo-fi, but we're all crazy busy, so you're getting... read more ›

1. Great attitude2. Great attitude3. Hard working4. Knowledge of technical/equipment5. Great personalityNotice photo school is not on here, nor is 10 years experience, nor are a lot of things you might expect. For the newest assistant on the team, I'd way prefer to have simply a great attitude, be a hard worker, have an open mind, and a working knowledge of most things photo. And do note, this is is not for a first or... read more ›

UPDATE: The winner has been chosen, check out the gallery of the top hundred or so entries.I'm the proud owner of a new iPhone 3Gs. That said, I've got my last iPhone, this lovely black 16GB 3G (pictured here), that I'll no longer be using. Don't get me wrong...I love this little sucker. I've lugged it over 200,000 air miles, literally around the world, and it's taken all the daily iPhone pics that you've seen... read more ›

What kinda magic can 22 photographers from 16 countries do in 12 hours in Dubai? Well if they can round up 6 traceurs, 1 beautiful woman, 1 Mountain Dew, and a Porsche Cayenne, they can create something pretty darn cool.Enter the collaborative Dubai Parkour Project.Here's how it went down: we all gathered as a part of Gulf Photo Plus, an annual photo festivus in Dubai UAE of more than 1000 photographers from around the... read more ›

For a couple months now I've been posting an iPhone image to my Twitter and Facebook everyday. No photoshop, just in-iPhone-app editing and a mobile post. The exercise originally started for two reasons: 1)to keep the creative/vision mojo flowing; and 2)emphasize the image, not the tools needed to create it. Its been really key in my own creative development lately, and I've been jazzed to get a ton of community feedback around how this little... read more ›

It's more than a stupid cartoon and my stupid face. What you're looking at is my screen grab of a digital hologram. I... read more ›
