How Not to Suck on Instagram

Basically, as with any good photography, have an interesting STORY to tell... and share it.

Beautiful Images get you High

Scientific study indicates that viewing beautiful images triggers the release of the natural feel-good chemical dopamine into our brains.

"There is a reason why art has served as a means of soulful self-expression for centuries upon centuries. All forms of art, from painting to dancing to music, are very personal and emotional experiences -- both for the artists and the viewers. [...]

New research by Semir Zeki, Professor of Neuroesthetics at University College London demonstrates that viewing a beautiful work of art creates the same chemical response as love. Both experiences trigger the feel-good chemical dopamine."

So, to recap for photographers. As you see and create beautiful images not only are you stimulating the light sensors in your cameras, but you're also stimulating the feel- good light sensors in your brains.

It's a twofer... a win-win !!!

Go shoot.

360-Degree Interactive Camera

Panoramic Ball Photographyy

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, which makes a picture from Jonas Pfeil's "Throwable Panoramic Ball Camera" worth about 360,000. The contraption has 36 "2-megapixel mobile phone camera modules which all click together to create a full panorama."

Very cool.

Photo Dog Assistant

I'm seriously considering getting a GoPro and putting my dog in charge of Second Unit production around here.

There's some clips and stills in there that are better than some of the work I've seen from "Pros." ... and/or me.
