I shot Buffalo Bill!
Colonel William F. Coby, known as "Buffalo Bill", prominent figure of the Far West had come with a travelling circus to the shores of Europe, at a time in his life (1891). He employed local people too and on the grounds of his performed show a statue was raised for him in 2006. I've fou...
Down-town shooting and back
Believe it or not this started as a shopping journey. We had a food break, ice cream on the go, a coffee break and my friend didn't buy the jacket he had invited me to help him choose. The camera - his camera -was taken so I shoot him in various jackets from different shops so he makes h...

make the frame the temple of your subject
Hi everyone. This is the advice tip I want to share with you today. I first said it to a young photographer in the critique gallery today. I'd better let you think about it.
Writing with light, reading by following the light
I had an intersting remark from mrswoolybill on the upload of an oblong, vertical picture titled "my husband died from lung cancer". Photography per se translates to "Lightwriting" which can be freely translated as "writing with light". Moira's (mrswoolybill) comment ...
Training your instinct
It sounds strange but it can be done. It is a skill that can be developed. You can start with a picture of a photographer you don't know, or you can't come at grasp with. Question its meanings, the suggestions, think the reasons that made him/her take the picture. If you do it with pictures from EPZ...
My advice to a new EPZ member.
Welcome to EPZ. Your skills will improve while you practice with the camera. Get to know the basics. Composition and lighting. You will make mistakes, everyone made and makes mistakes. Don't erase the failures, use them (by looking at the camera settings) to find the reasons of the failure. The ...
Great stencil work, street art
And a great picture from new EPZ member Katie here: http://www.ephotozine.com/photo/i--3-life-31840290 Remember what Henry David Thoreau had said: "it's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see".
Hunt For Family After Camera Found Under The Sea
Yes, memory cards can survive in sea water, (can't say for how long but if your camera dropped in the sea) don't dispair. Please read the story from the link here, http://www.ephotozine.com/article/hunt-for-family-after-camera-found-under-the-sea-20222 has it been you or someone you know th...
Stuart Holland ( known here as "f8" ) passes away
I have said in the recent past that although quite diverse as personalities we folks here are a community because our love for the photography is common amongst us. Well, I wanted to add that we all are finite too and it comes a moment that our roll of film ends or our battery dies. The circumstance...
The best time to take a photograph
Yeah, that topic... I remember the chill of the mornings, the sounds of the early day before the sunlight becomes strong, if my memory serves me right, films of 100 ISO were suggesting to use them after 10am but what is more nice to welcome the day with a memory to hold. Like this one: http://ww...
Give your picture a title
Hello friends. Got this recent upload as an example to emphasizing the importance of giving a title to your pictures, it helps when sorting them and it allows others to understand what was in your mind when you took the picture. I have called this picture red card tacklin, what name would you g...
Ladies & gentlemen I present you Orazio Centario
Italian Photographer and great contributor to the Visual Arts. His website, which I recently found http://www.ocaiw.com/index.php while reading about an exhibition of Helmut Newton's work (196 pictures) which will travel from Louvre, Paris to The SGT ( www.sgt.gr ), Athens and will be on di...
Prediction and patience
Can be two useful traits for a photographer. The following example shows the same landscape shot within a difference of 10 minutes approximately. On the first image I have excluded the circular road at the base of the photo a) because it was dead quiet and b) to allow space in favour of he beautif...
