Decisions..

It has been quite a while since this endeavor floated to the top of my head, and apologies to myself (no.. not you) for that.

However this post is not without some form of product. I don't know that I mentioned it but I work in somewhat of an international role as an engineer at a software company in Austin, TX. As many business work, when we approach the end of the quarter, especially the end of the year, things get busy... really busy. Shortly after my first post I found myself preparing for an out of the country trip to London... which by coincidence was perfect for this project!

I did take a handful of photos while I was there after perusing the aforementioned "50 Photo Projects". Since then, and thanks to the holidays, I had some time to pick just a handful of projects to post and start with.

I decided to, however, take a handful of the preliminary projects from "Photo Op" by Kevin Meredith:

  1. Tilt Shift
  2. Architecture
  3. Macro
  4. Backgrounds
  5. Portraits
The first two I happen to already have some preexisting shots to use. So more emphasis will be given to the ones following.

I plan on approaching each of the projects by posting a little about the project itself as described in the book, some tips explained to me and how I think to use those in my photos. This may contain some final photos from my experiments or will be followed with some shots. I'll try to describe the technical details of the shots to share along with any concepts.
