The painting was created as a traveling attraction for Northerners; it portrayed celebrated Union officers, while the portrayals of Confederate officers were not individualized.[3] It was purchased and moved to Atlanta in 1891 by Paul Atkinson, who attempted to recast the Battle of Atlanta as a Confederate victory, repainting a group of Confederate prisoners of war so they became defeated Union soldiers.[3]
Paying visitors viewed the cylindrical painting from the inside, entering through an entrance in the floor. After being seated, the central cylinder rotates slowly, affording a view of the entire painting. The painting at one time was the largest oil painting in the world, 74

Das Lighthouse steht für eine visionäre, innovative und weltweit einzigartige Wohnform, ein Wohnerlebnis in der Höhe mit 360° Panorama-Aussicht. Um dies erlebbar zu machen, wurde in besonderer Lage auf der Spitze des Baakenhöfts in der Hamburger HafenCity der Prototyp „Lighthouse Zero“ als Präsentationsobjekt mit vollständiger Inneneinrichtung errichtet. Zentrales Element des Lighthouse ist ein über 20 Meter hoher Turm, auf dem die Wohnebene ruht. Von hier aus bietet sich dem Bewohner eine einzigartige Aussicht in alle Himmelsrichtungen. Ein gläserner Aufzug und eine im Betonschaft versteckte Treppe erschließen die Wohnebene.
Der Wohnraum lässt sich um den Kern herum vollkommen frei gestalten: Ob Loft-artig offen oder mit einzelnen Räumen, das neuartige Wohnkonzept bietet in jedem Bereich einen hohen Grad an Individualisierung. Auf dem Dach befindet sich der 150 Quadratmeter große Dachgarten mit Holzdeck eingefasst von einer in die Dachflächen eingelassenen 70 Quadratmeter großen Photovoltaikanlage. Die besondere Architektur einer 300 Quadratmeter großen Wohnplattform auf einem Schaft von nur drei Metern Durchmesser bietet nicht nur eine phänomenale Aussicht und ein großzügiges Platzangebot, sondern sorgt auch für minimalen Grundflächenbedarf und dadurch für geringste Flächenversiegelung. So wird der Bau auch in schwierigem Gelände wie im oder am Wasser, in hochwassergefährdeten Gebieten oder in ausgeprägten Hanglagen, wo eine Erschließung durch klassische Bebauung nicht denkbar ist, möglich.
The Lighthouse stands for a visionary, innovative and globally unique form of living, a living experience on high with a 360 ° panoramic view. In order to make this tangible, the prototype “Lighthouse Zero” was built as a presentation object with complete interior fittings in a special location on the tip of Baakenhöft in Hamburg's HafenCity. The central element of the lighthouse is a tower over 20 meters high on which the living area rests. From here, the resident has a unique view in all directions. A glass elevator and a staircase hidden in the concrete shaft open up the living area.
The living space can be designed completely freely around the core: whether loft-like open or with individual rooms, the new living concept offers a high degree of individualization in every area. On the roof is the 150 square meter roof garden with a wooden deck framed by a 70 square meter photovoltaic system embedded in the roof area. The special architecture of a 300 square meter living platform on a shaft only three meters in diameter offers not only a phenomenal view and a generous amount of space, but also ensures minimal floor space requirements and thus minimal surface sealing. In this way, construction is also possible in difficult terrain such as in or on the water, in flood-prone areas or on pronounced slopes where development through classic development is not conceivable.

The zone captured here belongs to the water replenishment station, which is almost 25 km from the start. The first part of the station is for the pro-runners with individualized services (shown in the previous post), and the second part is for the amateur ones. This picture is captured in the latter section. The transfer of the carton with water requires the concentration of both the runners and the volunteers because the runners don’t stop to receive it.
The replenishers developed various techniques, from extending the arm and holding it stationary via moving it during the transfer to moving the arm and turning the upper torso with it.
This is number 41 of the Rotterdam marathon album and 334 of People at work.
My post-lunch coffee today was at Philz, a small chain in California. Their specialty is making each cup of coffee to order and as a pour over. There’s not a coffee pot to be found. But, this means a bit of a wait for each individualized order. The coffee is so good that I did not mind. By the way, based on my unscientific demographic study of the customers, I am not the “target audience” for this particular experience. #classicneg

1931 Cadillac Series 452-A V16
One car which propelled the Cadillac name more than any other was the V16. Built to each customer’s individual taste, it became an American icon of prestige and helped the company out-perform Packard and their V12. Cadillac initially prepared the V16 to prodigiously power its flagship model with more cylinders than anything else available. The introductory brochure proudly claimed “Sixteen-cylinder powering, complete individuality in style ”that, in brief, is the story of the Cadillac V16.”
At a time when a custom coach-built body was a symbol of status and wealth, the V16 became the one of the most revered chassis. Cadillac wanted the engine to be as vibration-free as possible, and eight combustion cycles per crankshaft revolution combined with balanced internals meant that a V16 was one of the best available packages.
As early as 1926, Ex-Marmon engineer Owen Nacker designed the V16 from two straight-8 Buick units that shared a common crankcase and crankshaft. Each bank was independently operated and only shared a common, center mounted camshaft which operated the valves with pushrods. The 45 degree angle between the banks was unusually narrow to fit inside the chassis. It was named after its 452 inch cubic displacement and produced 185 bhp which was good for 100 mph. It also used a unique hydraulic valve silencing system that reduced noise and was a novel feature in its day.
Chassis details were straight forward and borrowed from Cadillac’s 353/355 line. This included a huge steel ladder frame, rigid axles and hydraulically powered drums brakes to help with the large weight of the car.
Cadillac general manager Lawrence Fisher and GM’s stylist Harley Earl were largely responsible for the V16s styling. Most of the cars were bodied by Fleetwood in Pennsylvania which was later purchased and moved to Michigan by GM to keep business in-house. The customer could choose between 70 or so available bodies that were elaborately finished and all highly individualized in detail. If that wasn’t enough, Cadillac could also provide a bare chassis to be fitted by the independent styling house of the customer’s choice. These arrangements helped Cadillac excel in the luxury custom market.
The engine bay was as finely detailed as many of the bodies that covered it. Chrome and polished aluminum, were used and the wiring loom was neatly concealed.
The V16 was released right after the stock market crash at the New York Auto Show on January 4th, 1930. It became the first production road car to use the V16 which both Marmon and Peerless were also trying to launch. The first V16 shown was a Madame X Landaulet that was designed by Harley Earl a year earlier for two 314-B V8 chassis. The Landaulet was a limousine with division glass, a leather roof and a folding rear roof portion. Following these two special cars, other 4-door Madame Xs were built by Fleetwood in Pennsylvania and these were among the most expensive bodies available.
Despite difficult times, and a price tag higher than any previous Cadillac, the V16 was ordered in huge numbers throughout 1930. GM paraded six cars for European tour and the cars received acclaim by both the press and public. Production reached 2000 examples by June, but by the end of the year, the economic depression nearly hauled sales.
During an eleven year production, 4076 V16s were constructed in several series. Minor upgrades separated the types which included 452, 452B, 452C, 452D. In 1936 they became the Series 60 and Series 90 a year later. These final production cars used a new wide-angle V16 that offered a much lower profile, but kept the same power rating. This new unit also had a square bore and stroke that lower piston speed and crankshaft stress.
After the initial flourish in 1930, production grinded away for ten years with only fifty units made per year. Later, Cadillac reverted to their V12 unit but only after the V16 had made its lasting mark. In the end, Cadillac lost money on every car sold, but it was worth the cost of propelling the marque as a whole. It was estimated the V16 cost Cadillac 54 million dollars.
To emphasize the V16’s place in Cadillac history, a one-of show car was made for the 2003 Detroit Auto Show. Called the ‘Sixteen Concept’, it used a 13.6 liter engine with around and incredible 1000 bhp and 1000 ft lbs of toque on tap. This show car was part of GM’s initiative to re-establish Cadillac as GM’s top brand. Due to its excessive length, the V16 was not feasible in modern cars.

The Fontaine Bartholdi is a fountain sculpted by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and realised in 1889 by Gaget & Gautier. It was erected at the Place des Terreaux, in the 1st arrondissement of Lyon, in September 1892.
The fountain depicts France as a female seated on a chariot controlling the four great rivers of France represented by wildly rearing and plunging horses, highly individualized but symmetrically arranged, with bridles and reins of water weeds. The fountain weighs 21 tons and is made of lead supported by a frame of iron and was presented at the Exposition Universelle of 1889. It has been classified as monument historique since 29 September 1995.
This is just one of a few texture versions I´ve tried for the Cybernetic Arms so far. The texture isn´t final yet (and the tiger sticker may be a bit kitschy) but I wanted to show something.
A friend is writing an awesome script for a HUD to make it possible to change colors and/or baked textures and to choose from various stickers for the upper arm and forearm. The amount of possible variations to individualize the look will be amazing and all accessable from an intuitive and easy to use prim-based menu! =]
It will take a while until the textures and the menu is done but I think it will be out before the end of the week.
[ Please note: The sticker-option will be abandoned. Please read the explanation below. ]
The beautiful light in the Sagrada Familia.
The Basílica i Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família; English: Basilica and Expiatory Church of the Holy Family) is a large Roman Catholic church in Barcelona, Catalonia (Spain), designed by Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926). Although incomplete, the church is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and in November 2010 Pope Benedict XVI consecrated and proclaimed it a minor basilica, as distinct from a cathedral, which must be the seat of a bishop.
Construction of Sagrada Família had commenced in 1882 and Gaudí became involved in 1883, taking over the project and transforming it with his architectural and engineering style, combining Gothic and curvilinear Art Nouveau forms. Gaudí devoted his last years to the project, and at the time of his death at age 73 in 1926, less than a quarter of the project was complete. Sagrada Família's construction progressed slowly, as it relied on private donations and was interrupted by the Spanish Civil War, only to resume intermittent progress in the 1950s. Construction passed the midpoint in 2010 with some of the project's greatest challenges remaining and an anticipated completion date of 2026, the centenary of Gaudí's death.
...
Consecration
The main nave was covered and an organ installed in mid-2010, allowing the still unfinished building to be used for religious services. The church was consecrated by Pope Benedict XVI on 7 November 2010 in front of a congregation of 6,500 people. A further 50,000 people followed the consecration Mass from outside the basilica, where more than 100 bishops and 300 priests were on hand to offer Holy Communion.

Antoni Gaudí
(This is a Catalan name. The first family name is Gaudí and the second is Cornet.)
Antoni Gaudí i Cornet (Catalan pronunciation: [ənˈtɔni ɣəwˈði]; 25 June 1852 – 10 June 1926) was a Spanish Catalan architect from Reus and the best known practitioner of Catalan Modernism. Gaudí's works reflect an individualized and distinctive style. Most are located in Barcelona, including his magnum opus, the Sagrada Família.
Gaudí's work was influenced by his passions in life: architecture, nature, and religion. Gaudí considered every detail of his creations and integrated into his architecture such crafts as ceramics, stained glass, wrought ironwork forging and carpentry. He also introduced new techniques in the treatment of materials, such as trencadís which used waste ceramic pieces.
Under the influence of neo-Gothic art and Oriental techniques, Gaudí became part of the Modernista movement which was reaching its peak in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His work transcended mainstream Modernisme, culminating in an organic style inspired by natural forms. Gaudí rarely drew detailed plans of his works, instead preferring to create them as three-dimensional scale models and molding the details as he conceived them.
Gaudí's work enjoys global popularity and continuing admiration and study by architects. His masterpiece, the still-uncompleted Sagrada Família, is the most-visited monument in Spain. Between 1984 and 2005, seven of his works were declared World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. Gaudí's Roman Catholic faith intensified during his life and religious images appear in many of his works. This earned him the nickname "God's Architect" and led to calls for his beatification.

Caillebotte was unique among his Impressionist peers. At a time when modernity was synonymous with fashionable young women and new forms of entertainment, he focused instead on a more intimate and individualized sphere: his family and friends, his fellow sportsmen, the bourgeois pedestrians strolling in his neighborhood, and the workers who came to his house or whom he observed in the street.
Despite being born into the wealth built by his father, Caillebotte resisted the idleness associated with the leisured class. He was not only an active member of the Impressionist group but also participated in several activities as a high-level amateur, including rowing, gardening, and sailing. In all of his pursuits, Caillebotte gave his all, taking on the role of leader, organizer, and sometimes financier; he also captured these passions in paint, whether documenting the toil of boating, the serenity of tending a plant, or the concentration of a card game.
I noted how he often allowed objects on the edge to be incomplete.
Encouraged by the positive reception of his large-scale watercolors in an exhibition at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts,Eakins's sent this striking work and two other figure subjects to the 1878 American Watercolor Society in New York.For twenty-first century viewers the intergenerational scene appears to emphasize the individualized figure's post-Civil War emancipation (note the framed image of Abraham Lincoln with his son Tad at upper left). Nineteenth Century critics interpreted the subject as a "comedy of plantation life"more akin to Eakins old-fashioned subjects than a contemporary and sympathetic encounter.When it was sent to a Boston exhibition later than year,it earned the artist his first award a silver metal.
In the Renaissance, art was not an individualistic expression. Art was about sharing communal ideas. At best, the crafted object provided good topics for discussion.
Romanticism put an end to that. Other ideals were developed, such as pursuing personal development (Bildung) and marriage for love (free of money, power and class distinctions). The drama of joy and sorrow was individualized. The artistic genius – an exceptional individual – was placed on a pedestal.
Ron Mueck opposes the cult of personality. In his sculptures he typifies human qualities of a general nature. However, he has such an exceptional eye for detail that it makes you aware of individual differences.
Vespene Pumpjack Unit 9-V - Sylvoria Expanded | Part VIII
Vespene Pumpjack Unit 9-V is a repurposed drilling rig — a holdover from older mining operations, now retrofitted by the Empire to extract crude Sylvoride from deep beneath Sylvoria’s soil.
The battered machine groans as it drives into the nougat-toned ground, drawing up the volatile, yellow-green mineral once revered by the Sylvorians. Hoses slither across the terrain, pumping raw Sylvoride into containment tanks destined for off-world processing.
A technician oversees the process, while a jetpack trooper stands guard — ever watchful. The Empire doesn’t trust the locals, and even remote sites like this are too valuable to leave unprotected.
The surrounding land is dead — plants wilted, soil cracked, and color drained. The only signs of life are mechanical.
Unit 9-V doesn’t sleep. It drills. It drains. And with every extraction cycle, Sylvoria fades just a little more.

“This year, BobaLUG proudly presents Sylvoria Expanded — an evolution of the original collaboration. With new builders and more individualized stories, this chapter deepens the lore of Sylvoria, building beyond the main world into new frontiers and untold narratives. Part VIII is brought to by Behold_The_Loaf, who expands the Sylvoride extraction story with a detailed Imperial pumpjack build. Clever parts usage shines — from control panel buttons to flex tubing secured with tires and rubber bands. A sleeping technician and scattered gear add story to this quiet but relentless operation.Thank you for being a part of the journey.“ - BobaLUG

1931 Cadillac Model 452 (for the total cubic inches) Fleetwood Convertible Coupe. This beauty was one of only 4 of these built in 1931, and the first of this model that year.
“Magically smooth, uncommonly capable, quiet, powerful,” was how Cadillac described their V16 engine in 1931, and they were spot on. Towards the end of the roaring 20’s, Cadillac was striving for ways to make effortless power, matched with unparalleled luxury. While the V16 was announced after the Wall Street Crash of 1929, the release of the new Cadillac was extremely well received and nearly 3000 examples were built in the first year of production.
Released in 1930, Cadillac became the first American car manufacturer to introduce a production car with a V16 motor. In the early 1930s prestigious American car manufacturers were in a tight battle of “cylinder wars.” The likes of Packard, Franklin, Lincoln, Auburn, and Pierce Arrow all had created 12-cylinder cars by 1932. Marmon, a Cadillac competitor, thought about the idea of creating a 16-cylinder car in the late 1920s before Cadillac, but were unable to do so due to the lack of resources.
At a time when a custom coach-built body was a symbol of status and wealth, the V16 became the one of the most revered chassis. Cadillac wanted the engine to be as vibration-free as possible, and eight combustion cycles per crankshaft revolution combined with balanced internals meant that a V16 was one of the best available packages.

Germany, Hamburg, dry run of the lightshow the night before the official inauguration ceremony of the Elbphilharmonic Concert House on January, 11. 2017,
Elbphilharmonic Concert House is located at the Hamburg harbour on the way in to the harbours historic warehouse complex & new build harbour city.
The heart of the Elbphilharmonie is the large concert hall, built according to the Weinberg principle. The stage is positioned in the middle of the concert hall & surrounded by terraced public seats for the concert visitors.
Through the vineyard architecture, no spectator sits are more than 30 meters away from the conductor. The wall of the Great Hall, the "White Skin", owes its name to the roughly 10,000 gypsum individual sound measured plasterboards that make up the surface of the walls & ceiling with a large sound reflector installed above the stage. The panels reflecting together with the centre reflector on the ceiling vault the sound in every angle & guarantees optimal listening pleasure on every single seat.
The Façade is covered with 1096 individual fabricated glass elements; each one features an individualized raster print & some each divergently shape, serving as a sunscreen & décor. Each glass element at a cost of 3.000 € average.
Over 4.000 single mouth blown light globs placed at concert house.
This are only very few example of perfection & maximum attention given even to the smallest detail.
After all, the whole concept will be successful & it is another highlight & asset to the city of Hamburg.

History
With the activation of the inhibitor chips, everything changes within seconds. Brothers became enemies! Every clone who disobeyed orders and joined the treacherous Jedi was executed without any hesitation. The clone army switched from a warm brotherhood to a cold, heartless army.
During the ongoing great Jedi Purge, in 18 BBY, Admiral Tarkin issued a new order:
The whole Grand Army of the Republic has to return immediately to Coruscant for reorganization into the new Imperial Army. The Military has to represent the new Galactic Empire and, thus, embody uniformity and coldness to intimidate and discourage any rebellious behavior. The highly personalized armor of the clones is to be replaced with new uniform white armor, and all the vehicles were to be re-colored in Imperial Grey.
After arriving on Coruscant, all clone troopers were to report immediately to the new imperial facilities to retrieve their new armor. Only a few veterans were allowed to keep their individualized armor as a sign for their heroic actions in battle.
Before heading out to hunt down the remaining Jedi and traitors, all clone commanders were assigned under the new command of non-clone Imperial generals, replacing the traitorous Jedi generals.
Meanwhile, Imperial technicians were assigned to repaint Republic vehicles to meet the standards of the new Imperial Army.

Germany, Hamburg, Elbphilharmonic Concert House with a laser beam, located at the Hamburg harbour on the way in to the harbours historic warehouse complex & new build harbour city.
The heart of the Elbphilharmonie is the large concert hall, built according to the Weinberg principle. The stage is positioned in the middle of the concert hall & surrounded by terraced public seats for the concert visitors.
Through the vineyard architecture, no spectator sits are more than 30 meters away from the conductor. The wall of the Great Hall, the "White Skin", owes its name to the roughly 10,000 gypsum individual sound measured plasterboards that make up the surface of the walls & ceiling with a large sound reflector installed above the stage. The panels reflecting together with the centre reflector on the ceiling vault the sound in every angle & guarantees optimal listening pleasure on every single seat.
The Façade is covered with 1096 individual fabricated glass elements; each one features an individualized raster print & some each divergently shape, serving as a sunscreen & décor. Each glass element at a cost of 3.000 € average.
Over 4.000 single mouth blown light globs placed at concert house.

I have many better images but this one tells a story: In the Eared Grebe's brood there is always one youngster who is easily bored with mother's repetitive lessons on diving for food as well as safety. This adventurous dabchick would rather be out exploring the great and mysterious world of the wild marsh impervious, of course, to dangers posed by Harriers and large wading birds.
I have seen on numerous occasions an irate mother, suddenly noticing a "wandering one," charge after and mercilessly assault the little offending grebe. Totally cowed and traumatized the former carefree explorer will attentively face mother for prolonged individualized instruction on the art of ducking under the surface.
This tells me that survival of the species relies as much on instruction as it does on instinct and that, while patient reinforcement of instincts is the norm, occasionally more drastic measures must be employed to over-ride individual tendencies.

Park Güell
Park Güell (Catalan: Parc Güell ['parg 'gwe?]) is a garden complex with architectural elements situated on the hill of El Carmel in the Gràcia district of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. It was designed by the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí and built in the years 1900 to 1914. It has an extension of 17.18 ha (0.1718 km²), which makes it one of the largest architectural works in south Europe. It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Works of Antoni Gaudí".

Antoni Gaudí
(This is a Catalan name. The first family name is Gaudí and the second is Cornet.)
Antoni Gaudí i Cornet (Catalan pronunciation: [ənˈtɔni ɣəwˈði]; 25 June 1852 – 10 June 1926) was a Spanish Catalan architect from Reus and the best known practitioner of Catalan Modernism. Gaudí's works reflect an individualized and distinctive style. Most are located in Barcelona, including his magnum opus, the Sagrada Família.
Gaudí's work was influenced by his passions in life: architecture, nature, and religion. Gaudí considered every detail of his creations and integrated into his architecture such crafts as ceramics, stained glass, wrought ironwork forging and carpentry. He also introduced new techniques in the treatment of materials, such as trencadís which used waste ceramic pieces.
Under the influence of neo-Gothic art and Oriental techniques, Gaudí became part of the Modernista movement which was reaching its peak in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His work transcended mainstream Modernisme, culminating in an organic style inspired by natural forms. Gaudí rarely drew detailed plans of his works, instead preferring to create them as three-dimensional scale models and molding the details as he conceived them.
Gaudí's work enjoys global popularity and continuing admiration and study by architects. His masterpiece, the still-uncompleted Sagrada Família, is the most-visited monument in Spain. Between 1984 and 2005, seven of his works were declared World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. Gaudí's Roman Catholic faith intensified during his life and religious images appear in many of his works. This earned him the nickname "God's Architect" and led to calls for his beatification.

My first fully individualized license plate from Croatia.
I've already spotted one wished for within the system.
From what I understand, Croatian vanity plates are relatively rare due to their relatives high price.
The plate is a bit strange, Zhongya is clearly a Chinese name.
It seems to be tied to the Chinese-owned real estate company Zhongya Nekretnine - who failed payments for a hotel in 2020.

The painting was created as a traveling attraction for Northerners; it portrayed celebrated Union officers, while the portrayals of Confederate officers were not individualized.[3] It was purchased and moved to Atlanta in 1891 by Paul Atkinson, who attempted to recast the Battle of Atlanta as a Confederate victory, repainting a group of Confederate prisoners of war so they became defeated Union soldiers.[3]
Paying visitors viewed the cylindrical painting from the inside, entering through an entrance in the floor. After being seated, the central cylinder rotates slowly, affording a view of the entire painting. The painting at one time was the largest oil painting in the world,

Excerpt from the plaque:
For Addy Whose Crystal Ball Inspired It All
It was during her first visit with Dr. David Malkin that Addison (fondly remembered as Addy) asked a very frank question: would she live or would she die? She had arrived at SickKids with an infectious smile, a wicked sense of humour, and a rare tumour (angiosarcoma) that, although aggressive, failed to dim her spirit.
Dr. Malkin responded that he didn’t have a crystal ball to predict the future, but he did know that the team at SickKids would do everything possible to save her life. Not long after their first meeting, Addy, displaying her characteristic sass, gave Dr. Malkin a crystal ball.
A 13-year-old’s wish for answers is now inspiring a new era of individualized care at SickKids. Precision Child Health will allow us to see how disease begins, what factors drive it, and where it’s headed, so we can reverse its course and heal the future – one child at a time. If Addy was till with us, we’re sure it would make her smile.
"The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too."

I have been doing a little experimenting, just trying to keep my ideas fresh in photography. This photo is adjusted some with a technique called the Winslow effect.
And as usual, I have tried to individualize it to my tastes. I am curious what do you think of this technique? Do you like it, or is it awful?
YES!!
SEATTLE WORKSHOP!!! MAY 1ST!!! AND AMANDA'S COMING WITH ME!!!
I’ll be teaching two 4-hour workshops, from 10am-2pm and 3pm-7pm.
They will cover:
Perfecting Your Vision
-how to hone in and identify your visual language. then craft an individualized style.
How the Tools Shape the Shots
-looking at how different cameras lead to very different results, and how they influence one’s work.
Interacting with Models
-investigating the ways in which to best engage with people, be they professionals or perfect strangers.
————————————————-
I will explain my techniques, my core interests as a photographer, how specific cameras force me to work differently, how and why I engage with subjects and how I achieve the effects I do with my work.
In addition there will be hands-on shooting and tutoring, we’ll have ourselves some models to work with, it’s like a party but with less booze and more photos and fewer party fouls.
AGAIN, ONE OF THOSE MODELS WILL BE AMANDA!!!!
please contact me direct via EMAIL!!!!!!!
