Smartphone for Photographers

I will be presenting a program for the Fort Smith Photographic Alliance on Thursday September 12, 2013 at the Janet Huckabee Nature Center at 7:00 pm

 

When you mention a smartphone and photography, my first thought is poorly composed, not sharp, low quality images that no serious photographer would consider showing.  So why I am doing a program on smartphones for photographers?  First, my statement may have been true not long ago, but the phone cameras have gotten remarkable good and are now creating many great photos  (and as the saying the best camera is the one you have with you). Second, this program is not about using your phone to take pictures.   During this program I will show many useful applications to aid serious photographers,  I will not be showing the multitude of apps to edit or manipulate photos  on the smartphone.

Do you ever have questions when out in the field taking photos?

What time and where will the sun set?

Will it rain today?

Can I ever find this place again?

What is the color temperature of the light I am shooting in?

What kind of bird is that?

How can I control a time lapse shoot?

How do I calculate DOF (Depth of Field)?

How can I get a signed model release out here?

Why didn’t I bring a flashlight!

What’s for lunch?

“There’s an app for that”

Learn the answers to these and many more questions about smartphones for photographers at this free presentation.

Great Places for Great Photos

 

Let me help you to find a great location for your next photography adventure.  I will list many lesser-known destinations, as well as the famous "Icon Locations" for photography.  I will provide photos (Lots of Photos), location information, consisting of what there is to photograph as well as other information about the destination.  I will give costs, maps, directions, contact information, and other essential information for a successful photo trip.  I will only post for locations that I have personally photographed to ensure a quality guide to great locations for photography. If you know of great places that are not posted, please send me the details, I may just decide that is a place I need to go!
