New Start to Finish Coming!

March 30, 2010 in Inspiration, Lightroom, News, Photography, Photoshop, Review, TJM Media Group

I’ve just finished recording the post-processing portion of our next episode of the Start to Finish Photoshop & Photography Podcast from the TJM Media Group!

I’ll be on to editing Rob’s on-location segment in with mine this week and we hope to have it live soon. Watch for it here and over on Rob’s blog Towner Jones Photography in the near future!

Rob and I need your help. What drives us is a passion for sharing our knowledge and skills to help you become better photographers and post-processors. To that end, we want to know what you want to learn. Have you seen any ads in magazines, billboards, or on TV that make you scratch your head and ask “How’d they do that?” Want to know more about lighting or what camera settings to use? Tell us about it!

We are always on the lookout for content for upcoming episodes and there’s no better source than you! Simply leave a comment or send us an email to start2finish@tjmmediagroup.com with your ideas and questions and you might just see them come alive in one of our next episodes!

Also, while I have you here, you only have until tomorrow night to take advantage of the special deal from Mpix. Use the code “JMOOREGW” at checkout to receive 25% OFF all canvas gallery wraps. If you haven’t read my review from last week, please scroll down and check it out. The gallery wraps are beautiful pieces that really showcase your work in a unique way. So head on over and order now, before time runs out!

*Disclaimer: While all of my reviews represent my honest personal opinions, I received a free gallery wrap print from the vendor in exchange for writing the review. I do not collect a commission on orders placed with the discount code, though the response may have an impact on future partnership opportunities.

4 Exciting Photo-Related Plans in the Works

March 23, 2010 in Contest, Guest Blogger, Inspiration, News, Personal, Photography, Photoshop, TJM Media Group

With all the attention in the photo industry focussed on what’s going to be happening down in Orlando this week at Photoshop World it can be easy to forget about all the other great things going on in other regions of the community. Now, I love Photoshop World and NAPP and I look forward to when I can make my way back to one soon. But I want to make sure you are all aware of some really cool plans coming up here at Jason D. Moore Photography.

Points of View Photo Project #29 - Source ImageWelcome back for another week of the Points of View Photo Project!

This week, in honor of St. Patrick’s Day, we’re taking another look at the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge that I featured the other day. Shot in Northern Ireland on March 18 2005 while I was on vacation to the region my grandmother’s family was from.

After looking through the different entries this week, be sure to download the images for next time – offered by our regular contributor, Hendrik Demey from Belgium. They are “three bracketed images (+/- 2EV), taken this winter on the domain of a local small castle.”

Enjoy this week’s images and I hope you will join us next week!

Points of View Photo Project #28

March 12, 2010 in Inspiration, Photography

Points of View Photo Project # 28 - Courtesy of Chris MooreHappy Friday everyone! You know what that means, it’s time for the 28th installment of the Points of View Photo Project!

As I mentioned last week, this week’s source image comes all the way from Antarctica courtesy of my brother, Chris.

For those of you who might be new to this photo project of ours, each week I post a source image (either my own or user-submitted) that is straight out of the camera without any post-processing whatsoever. Anyone is free to download it, edit it however they like, and return it to me with an explanation of their processing so I can post it with the other submissions.

But why keeping trying to explain it when you can see how it all works for yourself with this week’s source image. Enjoy!

Photo Inspiration Thursday: The Lonely Pixel

February 25, 2010 in Inspiration, Photography

Last week I shared with you a process for Using Textures with Photos on a shot of the Eiffel Tower I took a couple of years ago. It’s a style that I haven’t used that often but has really drawn me in and provided a great deal of creative energy for me.

When I was going through my comments recently, weeding out the spam, I found a comment that seemed legit but was picked up by the filters. I visited the site that was included and was really taken by the imagery that I was presented with by an art photographer that uses this technique perfectly in her work.

February 17, 2010 in Inspiration, Photography, Workflow
