Light is at the heart of our photographs. Understanding the nuances of light’s interaction with the camera is critical to our craft. The temperature, intensity, source of light, ISO, aperture, speed, camera type, lens type, focal length, and filters… the combinations are myriad and multilayered, revealing the beauty in even the darkest of scenes.

 

We do cloud/website development and hosting, explore our services - cloudstands.com/

 

At William Stone Images, three passions drive us: the pursuit of beauty, the quest for the perfect picture, and the thrill of new photographic styles and equipment.

Does it almost feel like

nothing changed at all?

 

And if you close your eyes

 

Does it almost feel like

you've been here before?

We tend to celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied ad multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.

 

We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.

 

“A concise poem about our work as stated elow

 

A place without being

a thought without thinking

creatively, two dimensions

suspended animation

possibly a perfect imitation

of what was then to see.

 

A frozen memory in synthetic colour

or black and white instead,

fantasy dreams in magazines

become imbedded inside my head.

 

Artistic views

surrealistic hues,

a photographer’s instinctive eye:

for he does as he pleases

up to that point he releases,

then develops a visual high.

Cette semaine était particulièrement intense et je n'étais pas sure de réussir à me dégager du temps pour la photographie.

Fort heureusement bébé se remet doucement de sa méchante grippe et nous avons pu profiter d'un beau dimanche ensoleillé dans la forêt, histoire de se ressourcer et faire le plein de bonnes ondes et de soleil.

L'occasion parfaite pour sortir l'appareil et illustrer ce thème "sentiment" grâce à ces deux amours. Ma famille, ma fierté 💛

 

On ressent également à travers cette image le sentiment de plénitude, de bien-être, sous ce soleil d'hiver qui réchauffe les cœurs et donne un goût plus sucré à nos journées ☀️

WS-70-421612705-201779417-5199717-1132023204242

It's federal election time in Australia again. Last time it was an easy decision to throw out a government that had been in power so long that it had gone to their heads, causing them to attack everybody with a job.

 

This time around, it's not so clear-cut. We've got a religious reactionary fossil for an opposition leader, and a prime minister so afraid of appearing to stand for anything that she'll happily join the fossil in dog-whistling about boat people. Pauline Hanson and John Howard would be so proud of their political children.

 

I can't separate them. In a campaign full of hollow slogans ("moving forward", "real action", "yes we will", "stop the boats", etc), it's pretty telling that the one that sums up the national mood most is "they're all fucked".

 

Since neither Labor nor Liberal seem to want to take climate change seriously (both going so far as to sack leaders who believed in doing something about it), a vote for the Greens looks to be a good way of telling them that we care about it even if they don't. And since the parliament has been poisoned for the last six years by the Labs and Libs pandering to the right-wing religious nutjobs represented by Fielding's Family Freaks, it's time to tell them enough is enough on that front. The civil liberty-minded minors like the Australian Sex Party and the Secular Party look like good options for a protest vote there.

 

So, onto how all this ties in with the photo above. One of the scariest pander-to-the-freaks policies to emerge so far is Conroy's proposal to censor the web for all Australians. It won't stop the material it claims to block (and Conroy's insistence that anybody opposing it is pro-kiddie-porn is the height of insulting, dishonest arrogance), but it will lay a nice foundation for future governments wanting to restrict what Australians read. Orwell understood the power of controlling all the information flowing to and from the home, as do the governments of internet-filtering countries like China, Iran and North Korea.

 

So my #1 mission tomorrow is to vote below the line in the Senate, and to put Conroy and Fielding last. Yeah, below the line takes longer, but the alternative is letting the parties decide where your preferences go. Fielding got in last time on the preferences of lazy Labor voters, and this time around the Libs have done a similar deal for their above-the-line preferences to go to the Family Freaks.

 

It's never been easier to research your Senate vote and direct it exactly where you want - try Below the Line for an easy drag-and-drop way of working out your Senate ticket before you go to the booth. Or if you're in Victoria and want to put Conroy last whether you vote Labor, Liberal or otherwise, have a look at filter-conroy.org.

 

Good luck tomorrow.

 

No sleeping in this Saturday. Took my son to the county school orchestra auditions on Saturday morning
