Can anyone help me?

I am in need of a photo of Montana Hall, but I can't get one myself from WA.   I am looking for someone to grab a good looking photo and email it to me.   I would be willing to trade for it.   Email me at karibolken@gmail.com if you can give me a hand.  By the way, great work guys, and thanks.

Western Bridgers

These are a few shots from my internship with the Northern Rockies Trust for Public Land. This cattle-ranching land is in the process of being preserved for public use. Harry Armstrong, the owner of the 400 acre ranch, is setting aside a portion of his property for conservation and public recreation.

Wednesday's Night Sky

I don't know if you guys saw the sky last Wednesday night, but it was crazy cool. Here's a couple of images for those of you that missed it.

WHCC BOOK QUESTION

Does anyone know if you are supposed to put in your own book spine on the cover template from WHCC??? The template has those safe guides on it and the spine looks tiny so I'm not sure if I'm supposed to add in my text or if WH does it? Anyone, Anyone? Jackson you would know yeah? FYI for those of you considering books as well....WHCC books are amazing. the color, the paper, the cover, and I guess they to you in 2 days like prints. Blurb is fine if you have time but a lot of us are going to need that extra time to work on our books so if you're doing a book I highly suggest using WH, especially since the holidays are coming and it's Blurb's busiest time of year.

Shake Shake Shake

Yeah I know, pictures of puppies, sheesh! haha, I just thought this was kind of interesting.

Hear from a Suicide Survivor about Opening Up

If anyone is interested in the audio clips I've been talking about that will accompany my portrait project about suicide survivors, I have posted one of the edited clips on my blog. It's just 2:20 and I think she had some really insightful things to say. You can click the title of this post to check it out.

Practice for Final

So I am finally figuring out what I want to do exactly for my final project over here in Italy. I have really been wanting to use my flashes (I lugged stands and umbrellas and other crap over here). I am going to do commercial/semi theatrical scenes incorporating the person and their environment (I want Siena to permeate through somehow). Since it is a book I have been playing with the idea to have separate images, but at the same time have two images, or multiple images interact with each other in the sense that one person in one image is looking at another person in another image, across the page, or on the page next to it, or have someone looking around a corner which is the edge of the page - some sort of interaction or interplay between the individual images. At the same time, they could each be stand alone. I'll see.

I was able to practice with a friend of mine Frank, who is from north Jersey. He is living with me and my host family while we are studying abroad. Turns out he was pretty photogenic and I was able to get some good practice using my flashes. I am looking forward to taking more pictures of some other people here in Siena, and will upload those when I get them done. I am going to do some planning ahead so I can setup the shot and plan some of the pages ahead of time. I felt that commercial/fashion/semi-theatrical with speedlights suits because Italy is of course a country of fashion, and so in that sense this project would pertain to Italy.

Here are some examples with the flash. These are just with one flash, but I plan to use two for my final in order to incorporate environment and person. These are solely practice shots. OH and the reason we put sunglasses on Frank is because he blinks EVERY time haha.

(Click for bigger previews)

Which one do you like better (of the two below)? I am trying to figure out a general style I can start creating among the images to come. The first one is pretty close to original image and the second one has undergone some more editing.

Comments and Criticism are welcome

Thanks!! - Tyler

Postcard Back #2

Hey Guys, I was messing with the postcard back for mailing/horizontal suggestion purposes. Augie if you want me to stick with the main back you made then that's fine. I tried calling you today but can't get a hold of you. Give me a ring asap k. I have no idea what text you used, so if you could tell me that then I could go ahead and fix it accordingly. I had to cut and paste from the pdf you sent me.
