Photography Technique: How to Create Double Exposure Photography on Your DSLR

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Photographer Leonardo Mascaro first became obsessed with shooting multiple exposure photographs when he was shooting concerts in his native Brazil. He saw other people creating double exposure images of shows, and instantly wanted to recreate this photography technique.

But Photoshopping two images together in a natural way proved challenging. "I don't consider myself a Photoshop wizard," Mascaro says. Eventually, he decided to get into photography full time, and invested in a Canon 6D, a professional-quality DSLR which comes with a multiple exposure setting. Many full frame DSLRs currently available have this function, which combines images into a single frame right in-camera. Still, more often than not, digital photographers will turn to Photoshop to produce multiply exposed images.

"I think not many people know about it," Mascaro says of this creative feature. "Because I see people using Photoshop for this method, and when I do some research I see that the guy used a camera like mine, and I'm like, 'Do you know you can use a camera function for that?' And they usually have no idea." A few steps in-camera can eliminate hours of work in Photoshop, and the result tends to be more interesting, since you can compose the image right on the spot.

He explains, "I select the multiple exposure and how many frames I want, it's usually two. Then I take the first photo in a regular way. To create this reflection effect, when I take the second shot, I turn the camera upside down. And I try to frame it with the first shot. Everything's upside down now, so it blends together, creating this mirror type of effect. It works better when I have a clear background, like a sky. It's less busy and it's easier to see the images merging.

"I usually use the optical viewfinder. When you take the first shot, and you're ready to take the second one, if you change to the LCD screen, you can actually see the first shot with some opacity, right before they merge. Most of the time, I just do both images looking through the viewfinder. But sometimes it gets really hard to do exactly what I want. Then if you switch to the LCD you have a more precise way of framing. It's really fun.

"There are so many people who do crazy stuff in Photoshop, I'm sure you can do it. But I don't really know how to get the exact same effect. I know how to play with layers and stuff, but when I get the results in the camera, I think it's even more fun. And I'm able to see the results right there doing it. I get excited when I see what I'm getting in the location, and the more excited I get, the more I want to try different angles, and different spots, and different lenses."

Many DSLRs have the capacity to take multiple exposures in camera. This useful list will tell you right away if your camera has the feature or not. The Canon EOS 5D Mark III and 6D both have it, as do the Nikon D800 and D300, as well as many other digital cameras. You'll likely also want a tripod, and maybe a shutter release cable and flash.
2. Choose your setting
Natural scenery or striking architecture are great subjects for multiple exposure photographs. But a plain background could also work well, depending on the kind of photograph you want to produce. Before you start shooting, take note of details like cloud cover and interesting architectural details, and decide how you might want your final images to look.
3. Choose how many exposures to take
You can shoot just two exposures onto the same frame, or, depending on your camera, layer a whole bunch of different images on top of each other. It might be best to start out just shooting two exposures to get a feel for how your camera handles double exposures, and then get creative with more.
4. Take your first shot
Set up your first shot, and take it like you would any other image.
5. Take your second shot
As Mascaro explains above, you have options for how you line up your second exposure. Of course, this will depend on your camera, but it's likely that your camera will have the option of viewing your first exposure on the LCD screen as you line it up with the second shot. Play around with this feature, and see if you prefer seeing the image on your screen or simply lining up both shots via the viewfinder.

Everything You Need To Know About Smoke Bomb Photography

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Smoke bomb photography has exploded in popularity lately. In fact, smoke photography has become so trendy that even wedding photographers are using smoke bombs as a way to spice up their wedding photos.

When you take a look at some of the great examples of color smoke photography on Pinterest, it's easy to see why. Adding some colorful smoke to your shots can make for powerful portrait photography and landscape shots. The smoke can be used to create an interesting background, add atmosphere, or achieve captivating effects (when a model holds a smoke bomb while moving around, for example, the smoke trails can be used to highlight movement).

So you should think about getting in on the trend and setting up your own smoke bomb photoshoot! The eye-catching images you can create will make a great addition to your online photography portfolio.

If you're looking for some help, check out this guide below. It will fill you in on what to look for when choosing a smoke bomb, how to use smoke bombs safely, and some of the smoke bomb photography tricks you can use to create stunning effects.

How To Find the Right Smoke Bombs

One of the main things to look for when choosing a smoke bomb for photography is a "cool-burning" designation or a line in the description that says they are safe to hold when burning. That's because there are some smoke bombs that get too hot to handle. They are designed to be set on the ground and will burn your hand if you try to hold them. The other main considerations to keep in mind are the burn duration, ease of use, and cost.

Some smoke bombs can fire out of both ends simultaneously. These provide twice the amount of smoke, but they're not ideal for smoke bomb photography since they only last for about half the time as a standard smoke bomb.

The Most Popular Smoke Bombs for Photography

Enola Gaye is one of the most popular and highly-rated brands. These smoke bombs were originally designed for paintball and airsoft games as a way of blocking the opposition's visibility. But they have also become a favorite among photographers due to their high quality, ease of use, long burn duration, and the range of colors available.

These smoke bombs feature a wire-pull ignition system, which means there's no need for a lighter. They last for about 60 to 90 seconds before burning out.

The Enola Gaye website offers some helpful info on the differences between each of its smoke bomb colors in terms of quantity of smoke, output speed, and smoke density. For instance, the company's yellow smoke bomb is listed as having 16 percent more smoke density than its red smoke bomb.

Enola Gaye wire-pull smoke grenades usually sell for around $7 to $9 apiece, but you can often find them on sale, too.

Best Budget Smoke Bomb

For a more affordable alternative, check out these smoke sticks for photography called Smoke Fountains. You can get a pack of five colors for $22.99. They have fuses that you'll have to ignite with a lighter, and they are safe to be used as handheld smoke bombs. They last for around 50 to 60 seconds.

Finding Other Smoke Bomb Options

Smoke bombs are sometimes referred to by different names like smoke grenades, smoke cans, or colored smoke sticks. But they all do the same thing.

If you want to shop around to find a deal, try searching for all the different variations including smoke flares for photography, smoke cans for photography, and smoke sticks for photography.

What to Do On Your Smoke Photoshoots

Getting the Most Out of Your Smoke Bombs

Make sure you plan out your shots carefully beforehand and take some practice shots without smoke. This is important because you'll have to work very quickly once the smoke bomb is ignited. They only last about a minute, and it takes a few seconds to build up enough smoke for a dramatic effect. So there will be a brief window where everything looks right and the smoke is where you want it.

If shooting outside, wait for a calm day-you'll get much better results. If there's anything more than a very slight wind, the smoke will get blown around and dissipate much quicker.

If you hold smoke bombs too close to clothing, they can leave a stain. So if you don't want that purple smoke bomb to leave its mark on a model's outfit, have them hold it away from their body.

Try creating a smoke cloud as your background. Have the model start by directing some smoke behind them for a few seconds before making whatever movement or pose you had in mind. This will create an interesting backdrop and can lend a feeling of mystery as the smoke blocks out most of the background and the model seems to be in their own little smoke-filled world.

If the model is going to move the smoke bomb around to create a smoke trail, tell them to move it slowly. This will give you more distinct smoke trails and attractive plumes. The trick is catching those crucial moments before the smoke blocks the model's face too much.

Put the smoke bomb inside a prop. There are several examples online of photographers putting smoke bombs inside objects that a model can hold, like birdcages, lanterns, or umbrellas. It makes for some interesting smoke bomb pictures as the smoke billows out from a seemingly ordinary object.

Outfit the model in a thematic wardrobe. Some costumes that have been used to great effect include gas masks, soldier uniforms, billowy dresses, and post-apocalyptic outfits. The right outfit can add a sense of cohesion to your smoky shots.

Match the smoke color with elements in the scene for a powerful effect. For example, try using a pink smoke bomb at sunset, a green smoke bomb with trees in the background, or choose a shade to match a model's clothing. Although smoke bombs are available in a range of colors, you may find it's difficult to match the exact color closely. Luckily, it's not difficult to match the colors in post-production. Check out this smoke bomb photo tutorial for details on how to do that in Photoshop.

Many photographers have also found a use for smoke bombs in creative family portraits. Try suggesting some smoke bomb photography for your next family shoot.

Another great time to deploy smoke bombs? An upcoming TFP shoot! Creating cool smoke bomb photoshoots will show other potential TFP collaborators the in-demand skill-set you have to offer.

Smoke bombs give off sparks when they're ignited, so be careful where you aim them when lighting. Don't use them in areas with a lot of dry, flammable materials and use eye protection.

Even cool-burning smoke bombs will warm up as they burn. The bottom end of the smoke bomb stays the coolest, so direct your models to grasp them near the end. Consider having the model wear gloves; although it's not required, it can help them feel comfortable and safe.

Smoke bombs can continue heating up after they've stopped emitting smoke, so have a safe place to put them once you're done with them, like a metal bucket.

Ensure the shot is well-lit. If you have portrait lights or strobes, bring them along on your smoke bomb photoshoot. Having the smoke properly lit will make it really pop in the image.

Avoid populated public areas. Large clouds of smoke tend to make people nervous, even when they're fun colors!

Pay attention to any local regulations on fireworks. Smoke bombs are considered a pyrotechnic so all the usual rules apply, and their use may be restricted in your area.

Working with my photo 3 students on a Hockney style portrait. Conversations were fantastic- higher order and astute observations. Ex: Hockney's pieces seem to have a narrative to them, while general internet student samples seem more surrealistic. Hockney's have a sense of space/depth, while emulations seem flat. These opinions were followed up with examples, quantifying statements etc. so, at the end of our internet search I said I would make one sample before the class would embark on their own. We are to create a rubric based off my sample. Any criteria that pops out to you? I have included my sample and a Hockney.

I think an excellent starting point is to use the conversation you all had. If they were able to quantify their statements you can asses the same way. Narrative, sense of space and depth, lighting or mood to support narrative, follows cubist style...

I think movement and emphasis are important to include on the rubric... Space as well! Nicole Bruck Croy

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Capture The Atlas has published its annual Milky Way Photographer of the Year shortlist.

The 2023 final 25 photos were taken from 16 countries across the world.

From night skies in national parks to remote islands, the selected entrees are certainly striking.

Travel photography blog Capture The Atlas has published the sixth edition of its annual Milky Way Photographer of the Year, and the photos are spectacular.

The collection comprises 25 photos of the Milky Way taken from 16 countries around the world, including the US, Australia, Madagascar, Switzerland, and Japan, according to a press release. The final 25 photos were selected from more than 3,000 applicants, the press release added.

Dan Zafra, editor-in-chief of Capture The Atlas, told Insider that many of the final photos were all taken in unique locations where the Milky Way hadn't been photographed before.

"A few examples are the images from Socotra, a remote island in the Indian Ocean that is vastly unexplored, or the image from Madagascar, where photographer Steffi Lieberman had to photograph with armed guards," Zafra said.

"More locations include a very remote area in Spain called Serrania de Cuenca, where only a few photographers have ventured, and all the original landscapes from Namibia and New Zealand," he added.

Take a look at all the stunning shots below.

For this fun and easy project I want you to see the world through a new lens. Take pics of your world through a lens ball and create a refracted image. I have a ball for each of you to use during class.

Where to position your crystal ball?
1. Shoot in the Shade: Find shady spot, if there is too much direct light, your crystal ball will pick up reflections and these can ruin your image.

2. Get on the same level your subject
You should get the ball off the ground so it’s level with the subject you’re photographing. Or get on the same level of the ball. So it's it on the grass you are on the grass. But do not put it on the concrete or brick floors, as it will likely scratch the ball.

3. Where to place your ball?
You have to get close to your subject, or it (they) will appear very small inside the ball.

4. Try to find a place that is elevated
Rest your ball on something raised and shoots from below to avoid too much ground in your image. If you place the ball down on the ground, much of your reflection will simply be the ground.

5. Remember that moving the ball closer to your subject will increase the distortion while moving the ball further away will make the subject more realistic.

6. Move your camera away from the ball for a crisper image and closer to it for a more distorted look.

7. Do some creative editing on your favorite app on your phone.

Whats you will turn in:
* Your best shot, edited, of a whole new view of something here at La Serna. Make sure your image pops with color, contrast and saturation AND that you put a frame on it.
* Collage of your best EDITED 10 shots, that are all different. You should aim for 25 different photos.

there was this movement where people tackled micro aggressions that face daily. I showed my students some images, gave them washable markers, and asked "what are you personally tired of?" Some students really thought about it and got deep. They dove down into mental health, racism, seismic, and daily struggles. Taken on cell phones, converted to black and white, and then emailed to me. Great 1 day activity. I want to make a collage of them and put them in a show.

Creating Infrared Images with The iPhone - PhotoPXL

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Infrared photography, the black and white variety, first captured my imagination in college many moons ago. I fell in love with this depiction of the world around me and was drawn into these snowy white fantasies.

Infrared became a lot easier in the digital age. By modifying a camera, removing the high-pass filter, we can now have a camera dedicated to infrared. Modern digital processing helps to get those bright whites and rich blacks, and we can even add that soft ethereal glow so characteristic of early film IR.

For the past seven years or so I've made images first with a LUMIX DMC LX7 point-and-shoot, and later with a Fuji X-T1, both converted to 720nm infrared.

While I love shooting with my "big" cameras, I've had a love affair with the iPhone since getting my first, iPhone 4, in 2010. I love the iPhone's portability and, with today's iPhones, I'm not sacrificing much in the way of image quality.

For years now, I've dreamed of making IR images with my iPhone.

Last year with the help of friends, and a lot of research and experimentation, that dream became a reality. I discovered how to make infrared images with my iPhone! In the beginning, there was a lot of trial and error and a few screaming pixels, but today, with all we've learned, well, we're getting great results.

I say "we" referring to the more than 600 participants in the Facebook Group I created about a year ago. As the saying goes, the proof is in the pudding, or in this case, the pixels! You're welcome to join our group, or just stop by to see what people are creating with their iPhones! Here's a LINK TO THE FACEBOOK GROUP.

Clearly, the phone's technology is quite different than a traditional camera. With the iPhone, there's no modification of the hardware, no cracking open the phone to remove the high-pass filter or replace anything inside the phone itself.

Instead, everything is done using select camera apps, specific photo settings, an infrared filter, RAW files, and RAW processing methods. As one of my friends and fellow iPhone infrared enthusiasts says, "There's a lot of jiggery-pokery!" But for the determined, patient photographer, the results are worth it.

Why Bother to Shoot Infrared with an iPhone?

Many of my fellow "big" camera photographers have asked me that question not just about infrared, but about why I bother to shoot anything with the iPhone. After all, they argue, the sensor is small, you can't add lenses for long reach, and the resolution is less than what you get with a big camera.

Well, this is all true, and the same applies to making infrared images with an iPhone. So why do I bother?

Mainly, because it's fun! Here are a few of the reasons I enjoy shooting Infrared with my iPhone:

1. The iPhone is small, lightweight, and most often doesn't require a lot of equipment that I have to lug around. The older I get, the more I appreciate traveling light!

2. When I shoot with my iPhone, I can process, post and share my images immediately. I don't have to wait until I'm back at the computer to process and share images.

3. Today's iPhones take advantage of machine learning and artificial intelligence to run sophisticated computational photography algorithms in the background to create images of very high quality. Technology has advanced to the point where the quality we are getting, even with the phone's relatively smaller sensor, is remarkable.

4. Phones now have the ability to produce the data-rich RAW files that have been the standard for "big" camera photographers for years. The iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max can produce files using Apple's proprietary RAW format called ProRAW and it's likely that this will become standard on subsequent iPhone models. The ability to record and process RAW means that we can recover details from bright and dark areas, have a greater dynamic range, and even better color in our images than ever before.

5. Even older phones have the ability to turn on Smart HDR, and later models have it built in so that our images use this technology to help ensure balanced exposures, even in high contrast scenes.

6. Features like the LiDAR sensor and night mode on the 12 model iPhones facilitate creating quality infrared images.

7. Today we have desktop software from Topaz that will help eliminate noise in an image, sharpen the image, and even enlarge an image for printing larger with integrity. The Topaz tools, DeNoise AI, Sharpen AI, and Gigapixel AI, make it possible to achieve remarkable (and large) results that often rival your "big" camera images. If you are in the market for these Topaz tools to improve your images, take advantage of my link and code for 15% off all Topaz tools, even those already on sale! Visit the TOPAZ website and enter code at checkout.

These are just a few of the reasons I enjoy making IR images with my iPhone. But, for me, the bottom line, as I mentioned earlier, is that it's so much fun!

To link these two passions - my passion for iPhone photography and my passion for infrared imagery - has been a dream come true! And it's been great to see so many other mobile photographers become excited with this approach to IR.

So, How's It Done?

It's not rocket science, but there are a lot of details and "moving parts," so to speak, and the approach varies with the iPhone and camera you're using. And while the later phones, particularly the iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max, provide more options and often create the best results, quality IR images are being made with phones as early as the iPhone 7+.

Here's a summary of the setup and process. For more specific details and demonstrations on shooting and processing, consider my video tutorial, How I Did It!™; Create Infrared Images on Your iPhone! available for purchase.

1. Use an external infrared filter. I prefer the 52mm, 720nm filter which produces a rich black-and-white image. I purchased mine from Spencer's Camera because of the filter's high quality and because Spencer's filter is the only one I've found to work with one of the filter attachment methods I use for the 12 Pro Max (described below). (If you purchase from Spencer's use the Code RADDREW25 for a discount on your purchase.)While you can simply hold the IR filter in front of the camera's lenses (a technique I used before determining the best case and filter mount), this is a somewhat awkward option and not something I recommend for the long haul. Instead, I recommend getting a case and filter mount for attaching the infrared filter to your camera. If you have the iPhone 12 Pro Max, you have an option for attaching the IR filter that does not work with any other iPhone model. iPhone 12 Pro Max users can purchase Apple's iPhone silicone case and the 52mm, 720nm infrared filter from Spencer's Camera. The filter will simply twist on and "sticks" to the ridge on the case that surrounds the iPhone's lenses.

This is the method I've used since the 12 Pro Max came out last year, but I'll caution you that it may not be for everyone. This method is not intended to work this way, but it does. It's not as secure as other methods and there is the risk that the filter will get knocked off easily. I've used it for the better part of a year with no problems and I find it to be the most elegant and hassle-free method for me.

Another, more secure and conventional method for attaching the IR filter to the phone that is available for most other iPhone models (and some androids), is to purchase a Moment Thin Case with a Filter Mount insert that fits your model iPhone, and a Moon Dog Multi-Camera Filter Mount, v2. With this method, you'll put your phone in the Moment case, securely mount the Moon Dog Filter Mount to the case, and then screw the 52mm, 720nm infrared filter into that Moon Dog Filter Mount. You can use any IR filter that is 52mm in size. Some people like this option because they can find less expensive filters than the one available from Spencer's Camera.

2. Next, we choose select apps for making the photo. For the iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max, the native camera with Night Mode and ProRAW is one of the best camera options.Other apps that can be used with the 12 Pro, Pro Max, and earlier phones include Camera+2, and the Lightroom Pro Camera that is part of the Lightroom for Mobile app. Why these two camera apps? Because both produce RAW files, and both allow the white balance, ISO, and exposure time to be set manually. Could you use other camera apps? Yes! So long as you can control the ISO, white balance, and exposure time.When shooting with the 12 Pro and Pro Max using the native camera in Night Mode, the camera may be hand-held. For best results with Camera+2 and the Lightroom Pro Camera, regardless of the phone model, a tripod is recommended because longer exposure times are necessary.

3. Once the RAW file has been created, the rest happens with post-processing, which can be done on the iPhone or the desktop.There are three apps and methods for post-processing IR RAW files with the iPhone that I've found to be effective: Apple's iOS editor, SnapSeed, and Lightroom for Mobile; and other methods that involve desktop processing software.Apple's iOS editor is accessed from within the Camera Roll. In the past, this editor was nothing to write home about, but with the release of iOS 13, the editor got a facelift and today it's one of the best options for editing RAW files on the iPhone. And, if you're shooting Apple's proprietary new ProRAW format, the iOS editor may be the best option for editing ProRAW files that we have at this time. What I miss in this tool is a histogram and the ability to mask for selective editing. I often use the iOS editor in combination with SnapSeed or Lightroom, both of which have a histogram and the ability to mask.RAW files can also be processed using SnapSeed's RAW Develop tool. This tool only appears when a RAW file is opened in SnapSeed, so it's possible you've never seen it! While this is my least favorite of these RAW processing options, there is something to be said for the convenience of using one app to both edits the RAW file and also add any desired stylizing.And, finally, perhaps my favorite tool for editing RAW files is the Lightroom for Mobile app. This is a remarkably robust editor with a histogram and the Selective tool for masking, which is often desirable when editing sky and foliage in an iPhone infrared image. While the above-mentioned processing methods on the iPhone yield great results, many images will benefit from editing with desktop software. Noise is one of the things that can be a challenge with some iPhone infrared images.

4. The best way I've found to reduce or eliminate undesirable noise is to transfer the iPhone image to the desktop and use Topaz Tools, DeNoise AI and Sharpen AI. (Use the link and the code RAD15 for 15% off all Topaz products.)

5. Here is a link to a How I Did It!™ tutorial on how I process iPhone infrared images on the desktop with Luminar 4, invoking Topaz tools, Denoise AI and Sharpen AI as plugins.

A Word about Lightroom for Mobile

Many people cringe when I suggest using Lightroom for Mobile because they are not interested in paying a monthly subscription fee for the app. Here's the deal. If you already subscribe to Adobe's Creative Cloud to get Lightroom and Photoshop on your desktop, the complete Lightroom for Mobile app is included in your monthly subscription. Simply download it from the App Store or Play Store using your Creative Cloud credentials.

If you don't subscribe to the Creative Cloud and don't want to, you can download the free version of Lightroom to your iPhone or Android phone at no cost. This free version is lacking three features: Healing, Geometry, and Selective. While these are all useful tools, they are not required to shoot and process RAW with the Lightroom app. You can do everything you need to create and edit RAW infrared files with this free version.

If your photography repertoire includes infrared (or you want to add it!) and your camera bag includes an iPhone, you may enjoy combining these two pleasures.

To see images created with other iPhones and android phones, visit our Facebook group, Open Group! Infrared on the iPhone.

How One LA-Area High School is Changing the Way We Teach Photography

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Nestled in the heart of a youthful neighborhood arts district, just opposite the bustling Port of Los Angeles, lies a relatively unassuming gallery, much like any of those that surround it.

On its walls and tables sit dozens of framed photographs of stunning landscapes, majestic wild animals, magnificent architecture, and intriguing people. Placed in any other gallery, they would easily be mistaken for the work of a seasoned veteran photographer whose work might grace the pages of any number of prestigious publications. And yet, every single one of these pieces was created by a student no older than 18.

The Port of Los Angeles High School (POLAHS), located smack in the middle of San Pedro, is unique among schools in the Los Angeles area. Established as a tuition-free charter school in 2000, it's now home to approximately 1,000 students and has a very low student-to-staff ratio for the area of about 15:1.

Among its myriad advanced courses and ample scholarship opportunities, the school also offers a variety of Career Technical Education (CTE) pathways, including everything from construction to boat operation-hey, it's right next to the port, what did you expect? Of particular interest to this journalist though, and probably you as well, is its groundbreaking approach to digital photography education.

The Digital Photography program at POLAHS is split into 3 classes of almost 90 students. Over 2 years of study, students are taught the history of the medium, how to work efficiently, and, of course, a wide variety of photographic techniques. They're even tasked with completing the Adobe Certified Associate course, which involves intensive study and mastery of Photoshop and Lightroom, and gives each student an official endorsement for their resume.

Aside from their classroom education, students are supplied with everything they need to create amazing art pieces thanks to the school's partnership with Nikon Education. Currently, the cabinets in the photography room are brimming with many copies of just about every Nikon lens you can imagine, from kit standbys like the 24-70mm f/4 S to professional-grade equipment like the 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S - I even saw a flight case for an F-mount 500mm f/4 prime. These are mated to a fleet of Z6IIs, and a recent addition of a handful of Z8 s for special projects.

If that weren't enough, thanks to the generosity of donors, industry partners, and investment from the school itself, students are afforded the opportunity to participate in photo field trips to places like the sidelines of Dignity Health Sports Park, home of the LA Galaxy, and even adventures abroad to a choice of destinations like Japan, the Galapagos Islands, and Namibia, with who else but National Geographic.

All of this culminates with the students finalizing their work and putting it up for display in the Pixels Gallery, where it can be purchased, with all funds going directly to the photographer who created it.

Occupying the former site of famed seascape oil painter Violet Parkhurst's main West Coast gallery, and situated just 2 blocks from the school itself, the Pixels gallery serves not only as a place to display students' work for sale but also as a popular hangout spot during the First Thursday Art Walk, a San Pedro institution. Visitors are welcome to browse the gallery, listen to frequent live music, have souvenir portraits taken, and chow down on some complimentary bites to eat.

Photography teacher Erick Miseroy explains that the program is designed not only to provide a creative outlet for students but also to set them up for success in other areas of their lives. "Students need a spark- something to keep them motivated for school and success. Kids want to feel special, and creating images and having the ability to defend their work creates a level of self-confidence that otherwise wouldn't happen."

And it seems to be working. During my visit, I was fortunate enough to speak with Elizabeth Ozaeta, a senior at POLAHS who had been selected for a trip to Thailand and whose work was on display at Pixels.

After going through the selection process, which involves writing a short personal statement, assembling a small selection of photos to highlight their photographic style and personality, and an in-person interview, she chose to visit Thailand because it was the destination she was most unfamiliar with. "One of the things I mentioned [in the selection process] was how I wanted to introduce my community to Thai culture. I wasn't really familiar with Thai culture myself, and so I thought that bringing [back] these smaller stories can have a huge impact on a community like this", she says. Recounting her trip to Thailand, Elizabeth tells me that she was actually embedded with a group of anthropology students, giving her an excellent opportunity to document and bring back pieces of Thai culture to her community in San Pedro.

Among the dozens of photos of Buddhist temples, roads lined with Tuk-Tuks, and lush greenery, she points out two in particular that stood out to her as favorites. One, a portrait of a woman from a community of Karen tribespeople in the north of Thailand, and another, a photo of a family of elephants living in a sanctuary.

I could tell that hearing the story behind the former meant a great deal to Elizabeth, who explains that the groups of Karen peoples are often displaced as a result of armed conflict in the region, and those that migrated from Myanmar to Thailand derive much of their livelihood from tourism and the sale of handmade goods like traditional clothing and household products. As you can imagine, they were profoundly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and Elizabeth's excursion group was among the first foreign visitors after the worst of the outbreak had passed. She was struck by how integral family and community were to everyone she met, and vividly remembers that though their knowledge of English was limited and much of their interaction was aided by an interpreter, the elderly woman depicted in the portrait repeatedly pointed at a young child nearby and referred to them as "baby".

As for the latter, the group visited the Kindred Spirit Elephant Sanctuary to live and learn among a herd of Asian elephants. Unfortunately, many of these animals had been exploited in the logging and tourism industries, with several being subjects of abusive confinement at the hands of their previous owners. Thankfully, they were given a new lease on life, and Elizabeth was lucky enough to encounter Junior, the first elephant born in the sanctuary itself, along with his family. She was particularly inspired by the mahouts, or caretakers, who dedicate their entire lives to the care and keeping of their elephants, saying "I've never really been that close to an elephant...but being able to have that deeper story, and connecting with these elephants by knowing their name, their history, and about all of these people that care for them...it's really eye-opening."

Hearing her tell it, having access to such a program is an invaluable resource not only for herself but for other students. "One of the awesome things about Pixels is that it allows students to display their artwork in a space where it's comfortable. It's a way for them to express themselves and show their community what they see, through their eyes. Not all students are able to express themselves in more exterior spaces - having a place like this is really important for them to be able to progress and succeed."

As if to put an exclamation point on her words, a gallery visitor purchased one of her pieces just moments after they left her mouth.

With every new thing I learned about the photography program at POLAHS, I was, of course, thrilled. At the same time though, I couldn't help but feel that it was, unfortunately, a perfect juxtaposition of the experiences and resources many students have (or rather, don't have) access to. Whether this is an issue of a systemic lack of funding for STEAM education in many schools around the US or simply that there aren't enough people sufficiently invested to make it work, I am nevertheless grateful for those who do get to have these once-in-a-lifetime chances to teach us as much as we try to teach them.

Thankfully, the school administration at POLAHS seems to be fully invested in the future of the photography program and the Pixels gallery. Interim Principal Tim Dikdan tells me that the gallery holds profound importance, not only for the students participating in the photography program but for the school and the greater San Pedro area as well. "Serving as a showcase for the artistic endeavors of the school's budding photographers, the gallery not only amplifies the talents and achievements of the students but also cultivates a sense of pride and accomplishment within the entire school community...Through the lens of the photography gallery, the school community witnesses the transformative power of artistic expression, serving as a source of inspiration and a testament to the boundless potential residing within each student."

Sounds like quite a ringing endorsement to me.

Tiny People Cutout of Paper Star in Delightfully Amusing Tales

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Miami-based filmmaker Jorge Miranda works with miniature paper dolls to create whimsical scenes that are captured on camera and shared on Instagram. Using tiny cut-outs of photographed people, he places them in amusing situations that have the appearance of black and white film stills. We see one man jumping onto a larger-than-life spoon that sends another bearded gentleman soaring into the sky. Attitcus Finch, a famous character from literature's To Kill a Mockingbird, also makes a debut in Miranda's series and appropriately clutches onto the turning page of a book.

Working with these dolls and everyday objects is a way for the filmmaker to exercise his creativity. "These photos have become for me a faster way to express my ideas with actors that don't complain and don't need to get paid," Miranda says. His images seem to make up digital sketchbook, cataloging concepts that could eventually appear in more polished projects.

The World's First Camera Obscura That You Can Take Selfies With

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A photography teacher has created the world's first camera obscura that people can take selfies with by using their smartphone.

David White of Falmouth University, U.K., made the 6×6 foot camera obscura out of a gazebo frame with a 790mm f/5.4 lens peering out into the world.

The image the lens captures is then projected onto a screen inside the camera obscura; the screen can be moved backward and forward until the image is in focus.

"It's like being inside a camera, you can have a cup of tea in there if you want," White, a senior lecturer on press and editorial photography and a professional photographer, tells PetaPixel.

Camera Obscura Selfie

But what makes this camera obscura unique is the ability to take selfies with it. White ingeniously placed a Canon camera inside the tent which photographs the screen and can be controlled remotely via an app on his iPad or smartphone.

"The person just sits in front of the obscura looking at their phone controlling the camera, they see themselves because the camera inside the camera is looking at the screen and they take a selfie," he explains.

White says that it is the first-ever camera obscura that can take selfies and he built it for his students as a learning and teaching tool.

"[The reaction] is one of disbelief, and wonder, and amazement when they go inside because there are not many cameras you can go inside of," he says.

"And then it elevates once they take a selfie and then it elevates again because once I explain they are the author of the selfie therefore they own the copyright to the selfie and they can distribute it, share it, sell it, do whatever they like with it."

Building the Camera Obscura

White has actually built two of these selfie camera obscuras; the second one he adorned with a beautiful fabric that has camera parts printed on it.

"It looks like a huge camera now...You enter through a light meter," he adds.

The most expensive part was the focusing screen, but White found a second-hand one on eBay and then there's the matter of the lens.

"The lens was problematic because it needed to cover a larger area - like six-foot square - and there's not really a need for a lens that covers that kind of area because there's no film that size or digital sensor that size," he explains.

But he found an ultra-large format photography specialist called Reinhold Schable in the United States and asked if he could make him a lens.

"He made me a single-element Woolaston meniscus lens which is one of the earliest forms of optics known to man, he hand-grounded it for me and made it so it covered the area that I needed," says White.

"He charged me $400 which is quite frankly the biggest bargain of my life."

Plans and Usage

The selfie camera obscura has been a huge hit - and not just with White's students; noted documentary photographer Martin Parr stopped by to take a novel self-portrait.

The camera obscura is compact and lightweight which means it's easily transported, but that means it could blow away in the wind.

"Because it's lightweight it doesn't work so well outdoors unless it's a perfectly still day," says White.

The photographer adds that if he were to build a new one it would be inflatable so it might work better on the often windy British Isles.

We had success with Jacquard, here’s what we did:

- Watercolor paper
- Mixed & painted 2 coats in same day
- left to dry in dark space overnight (closet with no outdoor access/ lighting)
- the day we did ours we had a 5-7 min exposure
- rinsed directly after with cool water until water ran clear.

I’m sure we got lucky and it’s picky though!

I have a business photo class and first semester they learn all about exposure by doing a ton of fun projects around aperture and shutter speed while incorporating the elements of art. Second semester they focus on business, and the kids all create a photo business focused on portraits and we go heavy into portraiture, with both natural light and a lot of studio stuff. They create a website, and we go over pricing, contracts, social media and all the things for a successful biz. Then they work in small groups to create another business, and they learn how to shoot products, and create a lot of social media content for the products they are selling.

By the end of the year, all my classes are pros in Lightroom, proficient in Photoshop and confident in Canva, and have an online portfolio of all their work from the whole year made on Canva portfolio.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The twin girls from the movie THE SHINING

Part 1: The photos

You will need two people for this holding hands

Stand in an area with little distration in the background (a plain long hall way will look best)

Where your people are standing, make a little mark with a stick or rock or other small object. You will photoshop this out later.

Take your photo but do NOT move or put your camera down

Tell your people to switch sides, holding hands and standing on the marks

Take another photo

Photo part is done

Part 2: Photoshop

Open both photos

Using the MOVE tool, drag one of the photo onto the other Photo

3. Pull the Opacity down on the top layer to about 60%. You will want to still see part of the other photo through it.

4. Line up the Background area as best you can. Try to line up the hands as best you can.

4. Pull your Opacity back up to 100%

5. Add a Mask to your top layer. It will be a white mask

6. Choose a brush and make sure it's black to paint

7. Paint out the other person carefully

8. If you make a mistake and paint out to much, flip your brush to white and paint back in what you took out

9. Be VERY careful around the hand area. It will not be perfect, so do not worry. Do the best you can.

10. When it looks as good as you can get it, Flatten your Layers

11. Zoom in close to the hand area.

12. Select the Clone Stamp Tool

13. Clone Stamp any area on the hand, arm and surrounding areas so that it looks real and not photoshopped.

14. Zoom Out from the hands.

15. Clone Stamp any area in the background that doesn't look real or line up correctly

16. Pick and save to your computer one of the Cracked Glass File. Open in photoshop

Wanted to share these because I thought it turned out to be a pretty fun project. Started the school's first photo 2 class this year and this was our first assignment. It's hard to tell from the perspective but these are all life size cutouts. My first unit is on print media (billboards, magazine covers, postcards) and I had them shoot in RAW, upscale in Photoshop to their height in inches, then export in 8.5x11 jpegs using the slice tool. They then had to assemble them all together and cut them out. I call it "Pieces of You."
