CONTACT: marinacano@photo.net EXCLUSIVE PHOTOGRAPHIC SAFARIS Led by Wildlife Photographers Mario Moreno and Marina Cano South Cape Images specializes in African Photographic Safaris that are conceived for small groups of photographers of all levels. We design our safaris to guarantee exceptional photographic opportunities and a True African Safari Experience. Capturing “Perfect Moments” is our goal and as expert wildlife and landscape photographers we will make sure that you return home with the images you pursue. However, being able to indulge in the african wilderness is just as important and this is why we only use exclusive lodges and mobile tented camps that guarantee seclusion away from the tourist crowds and that meet your every need when returning from your photo sessions. Non-photographer partners will enjoy our safaris just as much.

Laura Barnett is transfixed by the Japanese photographer's emotive exhibition at the Hackelbury gallery At first glance, she is almost invisible. The woman wrapped in traditional dress stands with her back to the camera as she watches the spidery fireworks flame up behind a pine tree, the city lights gleaming in the distance. In this photograph, one of hundreds by Japanese artist Masao Yamamoto currently on display at London's Hackelbury gallery, the subject is herself a viewer.

Jim Brandenburg | Professional Insights | Nikon Professional Services
My name is Jim Brandenburg and I am an American nature photographer. Most of my career has been with National Geographic Magazine and in television. Today I am on the west coast of France testing the Nikon D800, a very exciting new product. I am honored to be able to be one of the first to use this camera. When I was young, I was very shy, I didn't speak much, so I developed a visual language early on to express myself.

Digital and film photography can be radically different from one another, and not just from an operational standpoint. Each medium instills a different feeling when shooting, and both require a different approach to subject matter. It is true that recent D-SLRs can improve your chances of capturing the right moment dramatically. Moreover, the post-production process with digital allows for more freedom than with film, and you can shoot more frames with less consideration about how much film is left or when might be the right moment to use your last frame.Amy's FAQs - Matt Moyer & Amy Toensing | On Assignment
As a kid, I was obsessed with this book “The Family of Woman”. It’s a compilation of black and white photographs that tells the story of womanhood. It’s the feminine story of humanity; it has no borders in terms of race, politics or geography. I could never get enough of it and eventually the cover fell off and pages slipped out.
Interview: Magical Insect Photographer
When we first came across Nadav Bagim's macro insect photography , we were taken aback by just how magical he could make their miniature world look. His photos seemed like they came out of a storybook or a Disney/Pixar movie. Filled with beautiful colors and a generous helping of bokeh, they seemed almost out of this world. After we found out that he only uses Photoshop for slight tweaks, we were even more impressed.

Ansel Adams
Ansel Easton Adams (February 20, 1902 – April 22, 1984) was an American photographer and environmentalist best known for his black-and-white landscape photographs of the American West , especially of Yosemite National Park . [ 1 ] With Fred Archer , Adams developed the Zone System as a way to determine proper exposure and adjust the contrast of the final print. The resulting clarity and depth characterized his photographs and the work of those to whom he taught the system. Adams primarily used large-format cameras despite their size, weight, setup time, and film cost, because their high resolution helped ensure sharpness in his images.
