Here's a time lapse video made with frames shot every three seconds, as I put together a 13x26" Gallery Wrap using Breathing Color's Easy Wrappe Pro 1.75 system. I also spent the time this week to learn how to make a Motion Graphics intro with Adobe After Effects....
This week I've had the absolute pleasure of being able to test and review a Drobo, which as most of you already know is an external storage device that takes multiple hard drives, even of different size and creates one or more large volumes or drives with redundancy...
In September, I had a conversation by mail with a friend that some of you may know from the MBP Community, Jared Fein. Jared had taken a look at the images on 500px following Episode 295 : An Introduction to 500px, and asked how people achieve the punchy look that you...
It's kind of hard to believe that this is our 300th episode! It's been one hell of a journey this last six years though, and I wanted to thank each and every one of you for listening, and continuing to stay engaged with the community. You all help to make this what it...
Having figured out how to record a Google+ Hangout last week, today I held another Hangout, which I was able to successfully record, and although we took a while to really get started, I figured we discussed enough relatively interesting stuff to put this out there....
Just a quick post here to share my findings having just picked up a CalDigit SuperSpeed Expresscard 34 USB3.0 adapter. The CalDigit product line was brought to my attention recently by a friend Tim Linn. I'd been looking for a USB3.0 adapter that works with my MacBook...
I spent today trying to figure out how to record a Google+ Hangout. The biggest problem was recording both my audio from my mic, and the audio coming in through my system from the Hangout. I thought I'd cracked it early on, but the key turned out to be in the audio...
Nik Software improved on perfection when they updated Silver Efex Pro to Silver Efex Pro 2, and today here's a video Podcast to take a look at how to use this amazing black and white conversion plugin and touch on some of the new features. You can also view the...
After a bit of a false start with episode 89 when I covered the winners of the two month assignment that we ran for Mach and April 2011, I've been in remiss again for a while, and haven't really covered the winning images for our Photography Assignment for some time...
Last week, I started to use the photo sharing web site that everyone's talking about, 500px. Initially it was the incredible quality of work that drew me to the site, but I was unsure as to whether or not to get involved, because I don't make enough time for social...
It's pretty much common knowledge that the copyright of a photograph comes into being the moment you release the shutter and the image is saved to your memory card. It's fine to put a copyright notice on your images when you post them to the Web, and you have the...
I've briefly touched on backing up in various episodes over the last six years, but following a conversation this week with Matt Marshall, a great photographer from the UK, I decided to wrap a few ideas, including Matt's, into this week's episode. Thanks for all the...
