‘Peripheral’ is a Love Story Shot Through a Hasselblad Viewfinder

November 12, 2018 By Eric Reagan

This award-winning short film (embedded above) is a lovely three-minute story for photography geeks featuring an iconic camera.

It was shot using a Sony a7s with the Voigtlander 21mm f/4 Color Skopar through the viewfinder of a Hasselblad 500c/m. It is “[a] short story about how constantly looking to make that next great photograph can cause you to loose [sic] touch with whats around you.”

I think most photographers, at some point, can relate to the some of the looks the photographer in the film receives from his love interest.

Unfortunately, Corrina Van Hamlin, the film’s female lead passed away in July following a sudden stroke. She was an active part of the Lansing, MI arts community and “left a legacy of love.”

May 19, 2016 By Eric Reagan

This bird’s nest timelapse video with a GoPro did not turn out as expected. Tan Nguyen found the nest in his front yard and set up his GoPro camera in the tree to capture the action. He got much more than he bargained for and now his nature video has amassed over 5 million views in less than a week.

August 31, 2015 By Eric Reagan

Photographer Noe Alonzo captured close to 3TB of images over the course of three years to make this time lapse tour of Seoul, South Korea.

As he puts it, “Three years of no social life, three years of ditching my friends and events and ignoring my girlfriend so I could be out on some roof. I’d say each shot was on average 6 hours of work. Some shots I reshot 4-5 times until I got it right.”

The gear he cites as used on this project includes: [Read more…]

How to Remove a Tattoo in Photoshop

August 1, 2015 By Eric Reagan

In this video from Aaron Nace at Phlearn, you’ll see how you can use Photoshop to remove tattoos from your subjects.

He covers three main sections in the process, which are the basic removal, then painting the skin back in to remove the odd, blotchy look from the removal and, finally, he shows us how to add skin texture back to the tattoo removal area.

Ever wonder what it’s like to be a Jedi surrounded by Storm Troopers in hostile territory? This GoPro video from YouTuber Billywarp1 is about as close as you’re going to get.

Wedding Photographer Falls in Lake as Bride & Groom Walk the Aisle

July 20, 2015 By Eric Reagan

Just after this bride and groom took their first few steps as husband and wife, their wedding photographer fell in the lake. I can’t help but feel sorry for this lady and really all involved.

The “Oh NO!” scream she utters as she knew what was coming is just painful. There are so many things to fear in that instance, the least of which is yourself getting wet. The damage to the camera and digital images you’ve already captured that day is certainly a concern. And, of course, as a wedding photographer, you want the day to be as little as possible about you and more about the bride, groom and their family and friends. All of that goes out the window when an accident like this happens.

I think we officially have a new top video for wedding photographer falls. The previous king of the hill being this poor photographer who took a trip into a water fountain (also during the recessional).

Rare Footage of an Iceberg Flipping Over

June 22, 2015 By Eric Reagan

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sh271FAVZ0o&w=700]

I never really thought about whether an iceberg flips over or not. But they do. It’s actually something that happens pretty regularly but is rarely captured on camera.

The above footage from 2012 shows the iceberg flipping as a catamaran full of sightseers pass closely (almost too close) by. [Read more…]
