So today I want to share a picture I took. Yes, photography! I do photography on the side in my spare time, as a hobby, but one which I am intimately familiar with. Not only was my grandfather a, award-winning photographer, and my dad was a hobbyist, but I worked at National Geographic for several years as an imaging specialist editing and archiving and restoring images. I have worked with many famous photographers (such as Jodi Cobb), and done work on many famous images, and for many clients (famous and yet-to-be-famous alike). So I have "some" experience with photographs (mainly digital photo-editing), but not so much with making them myself. I did get a nice DSLR (Nikon D3000) to play with and learn more, and have been actively learning photography, partly to learn more about light and composition, and partly because I think it is cool, and partly cause it can make money on the side. I love taking pictures, and plan to continue to pursue this hobby in my spare time.
So for now, I have an image I would like to share of my neighbor's cat, Chester. This image is actually a "photomerge" (a type of collage) of 28 images, designed to capture a specific look with the Depth of Field using a technique called the Brenizer Method. So for now, enjoy this image of Chester giving me a weird look.
