I just submitted SHAMEFULLY UNDERFAVED - THE SEQUEL.
(See SHAMEFULLY UNDERFAVED.)
just submitted the latest issue of "DD is for Don't Decline" as a news article, so don't miss it. For those who have suggested Daily Deviations, you can send him a note with the thumbnails to be included in his next article.SHAUN AND I JUST STARTED A STOCK ACCOUNT FOR SOME OF OUR PHOTOS AND FOR MY FRACTAL RESOURCES:
I'll also be uploading some of my parameters to that account. Check it out!- - - - - -
Since I am working on the next news article, as a follow-up to "Shamefully Underfaved", I thought I'd devote this week's journal to the kind of photos that you just can't look away from.
I've only been taking photographs for a couple of months, but I've been preparing to learn for the last forty years. I started out as a child, in Australia, collecting beautiful travel photos. I'd cut them out of brochures and keep them in a notebook. As an adult, I graduated to the more expensive travel books. The internet opened up new opportunities to study the works of the best photographers in the world. My favorite sites to browse, outside of DA, are pbase.com and trekearth.com.
One of the best ways to improve as a photographer and artist is to ask yourself why the photo looks so great. Study the colors and composition, the perspective and the subject of the photo. Is it something refreshingly different? If you keep going back to great works of art and doing this, I guarantee that your own work will keep improving, whether it is in photography, traditional or digital art.
I hope that this collection will be an inspiration to artists of every genre.
