http://karldavis.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 27, 2008. My wife and I are proud parents of two wonderful kids: Shauna. And Brian; both of them had graduation ceremonies this year. Brian graduated from High School and started college. Shauna graduated from college last week. We had a chance to capture those two special events that serve more as a transition to a new stage in life for them. It's always challending trying to take pictures from inside dark auditoriums. sometimes from the upper deck! Posted by KARL DAVIS. The dome was ...

Friday, November 28, 2008. At Thanksgiving yesterday, I took a few moments to slip into the dining room before anyone else came in. I wanted to capture the beautiful dinner table and show the wonderful symmetry of the glasses, plates, napkins, etc. Take a look at the results above. I think things turned out really well. These images were well received; especially by our hostess. Posted by KARL DAVIS. 0 Comments. Click here to leave your comment. Thursday, November 27, 2008. Here's what I mean. I took thi...

Photography Blog of Karl Davis: Happy 4th of July... from the road side!
http://karldavis.blogspot.com/2009/07/happy-4th-of-july-from-road-side.html
Sunday, July 5, 2009. Happy 4th of July. from the road side! Here are a few images from yesterday's fourth of July celebration. Since there was so much traffic, we ended up finding the first empty parking spot available and made a mad dash to setup the camera and tripod just in time for the fireworks to start! I started shooting with a 50mm to get some relatively close shots of each firework as it exploded, as shown in the next two images. Posted by KARL DAVIS. Subscribe via Feed Reader. Find A Sweet Spot.

Monday, February 16, 2009. Don't just tell what happened. show the passion! Celebration at 2007 State Championship, Winston Salem, NC. Well, if you just want to document the match to show what happened, then those pictures are okay, but. That's the gist of the response I got from my longtime photography instructor, Dick Cicone. I had asked for his opinion on some wrestling pictures I took a few years ago. He then pointed out that I would need to change some things in order to. And the very nature of what.

Wednesday, October 28, 2009. Painting With Light #1. Every year, I look forward to the State Fair which comes to town during the month of October. For many, it's a time to enjoy the sights and sounds and. great tasting food! Yes, for me, it's all those things and more. it's also the opportunity to really creative by shooting at night, without a flash. You can view it as using light as as your paint brush!

http://karldavis.blogspot.com/2009/02/hey-speedy-slow-it-down.html
Sunday, February 1, 2009. Hey speedy, slow it down! In our busy "hurry-up and get it done" world, there is no question that we short-change ourselves on so many things; especially our relationships and an appreciation for the beauty around us. That's where photography can help tip the scales in the other direction! The image below is only possible at slow, slow speed. 30sec / F8.0 at ISO 100. See the full image below. just a simple fountain. 15sec / F8.0 at ISO 100. Have fun with it. You May Also Like.
