Before committing myself to learning the art of photography I had a fairly rudimentary understanding of black and white.
I thought of it as a style, like a cute pencil skirt. “Oh this looks nice, I’ll wear it tomorrow”. Dead wrong. Black and white conversions can definitely be a signature aspect of one’s style but the decision to convert an image shouldn’t be made in post processing. It should be made long before you touch your camera. I tinkered with different actions, gradient maps, and RAW conversions before learning on the Clickin’ Moms* forum that the strength of a black and white image often hinges on pre shoot planning and the quality of light. Of course. Dynamic lighting, strong compositions, interesting lines and textures, and vision are all necessary elements of a good black and white photo.

I remember the day I got my DSLR camera in the mail-- I had saved up for months to buy my little Nikon D40 and I watched the postal tracking code like my dog waits for her food in the mornings.
(So. Excited.) :) When my brown Amazon box finally came, my heart was beating so fast that I could barely cut open the tape. I took out the Nikon and held it in my hands-- that weight and feel is so familiar to me today. I started taking pictures right away, the same photos that everyone takes with a new camera: everything that is in direct sight. My hands, the countertop, the microwave, my feet, the cat, a pile of newspapers. Back then, I didn't have a clue as to what in the heck I was doing.

It’s a pretty cool idea, so I said “go for it!” PhotoVerse collects photography related news and blog posts like any RSS reader, and makes it handy for anybody interested in photography to keep up on their reading while also allowing them to share the articles on social media networks.

Instead, I asked if you guys could have some freebies or discounts. I have 5 coupon codes for a free copy of the app. Photography Q&A.
