Authors@Google Talk

Here is my first Authors@Google talk — all about HDR Photography! :)

Second Speech at Google HQ

In this second speech, I talk about “Artists and the Internet: Digitally Extending your Natural Self” — and maybe you will find it interesting, even if you are not an artist!

Trey Ratcliff’s Hangout Videos

We have a bunch of these now! All of them are available on the StuckInCustoms YouTube channel. Here is a sample of one below.

Mostly Photo – Online Sharing

This was a great episode! We talked about topics like:

  • How to share your photos online (I give some philosophical advice in addition to logistical, practical advise)
  • Pricing your images and selling prints
  • Getting inspiration from other online photographers
  • SmugMug and how I use them  (see my full SmugMug Review here)
  • Memory cards and horror stories  (I use Hoodman, which Leo thought was funny…hehe – but see my Hoodman Review here)

So, in addition to Lisa Bettany and Leo Laporte, we had on RC Concepcion, which was really cool.  He just finished a book on this very subject, so he was a fount of knowledge.  And if you guys don’t know who RC is, well then this is a great introduction to him!

Mostly Photo – Going Commando

What kind of camera to get for entry-level DSLRs, the advantages/concerns of upgrading, and other general photography talk

Mostly Photo – Mobile Photography

Discussed ways to approach and experiment using mobile photography.

Mostly Photo – HDR and Travel Photography

This is the first episode filmed in Leo’s studio. I gave a demo on HDR Photography, discussed travel photography, and talked a little about gear.

    Best wishes

    Hi Trey, I just signed up for the newsletter and wanted to check out the 45min vid you have on HDR. It says newsletter #3. How can I watch that one?

    cheers,
    Noah

    Aha – the welcome email should have links to the first three newsletters, no?

    Trey,

    I can only imagine how busy you must be, swamped with enthusiatic fans. But you photography has touched my in a very profound way and today I have decided to dedicate the rest of my active life (I figure about 20 years, as I am 58 and don’t feel that I can count on being active after age 80) to working my business and traveling the world shooting HDR photography.

    I am purchasing the DX3 and the 14-24mm, the 50 f/1.4 and the 200mm Micro, but that’s all I can afford right now. (I have an old Sony R1 that can shoot in RAW and a Sony H1 that will have to fill in for the rest).

    What I want to know is if I could have the privilage of calling you on the telephone and talking to you? Again, I know that you are very busy and if you can’t I understand, but you don’t know how profoundly you have touched my life. I am buying a huge world map now to start plotting the 16 major trips that will fill the last 20 years of my life.

    Whatever you decide, thank you for your site and your heart.

    Bob

    Bob,

    Thanks for the note! Glad to hear you are getting into it big time… hope you have a really good time – I am sure you will. I am just TOO swamped I’m afraid… just countless countless unread emails, plus getting this book out and a few other projects that are just breaking my back right now – sorry mate — but I will be with you in your world adventures in spirit! :)

  • Paul

    Have spent several hours reading and watching your material. Have been experimenting with HDR but without any knowledge until I found your site. Thanks for the extremely informative posts, I am now on my way to hopefully understanding this technique better and being able to hopefully produce some good results.

    I am fortunate to travel the world with my work so will now be taking my camera equipment with me and exploring photo opportunities using the HDR technique.

    Thanks (London England)

    Great – glad they are helpful – I have several more videos in the pipeline that should be helpful too!

    I’m sold and I am sending others here as well, thanks for the info already putting it to work.

    Love your style and the HDR photos are great as well as your tips and reviews.

    Thank you for your time and effort.

  • Martin

    Hey Trey, I loved your “Dramatic Reading…”. Very amusing. I immediately started thinking about these guys’ critics and surprisingly found myself realizing, that I also didn’t get a profound tutorial and exhausting information about how to do HDR images and get sweet results, but hey… there is no general universal recipe on how to make a cool picture with HDR. There is no point’n'click manual on artistic photography. I stumbled upon your work just a few days ago and I like it very very much. Since I also have a geeky (sorry) background, I suddenly found myself studying this field a little closer. Even now trying out some stuff and hopefully got myself back into photography after a long time. Tanks for your work and your excellently written comments and little stories about your shots. I mean, how bad can it be?… this guy is a Firefly fan, right?
    Cheers, Martin

  • http://www.stuckincustoms.com Stuck In Customs

    Tom – Thanks – sure – send them along

    Martin – Hehe thanks… Yes, I do love sweet Firefly! :) Now, I think you will see that I lay all the steps out in a simple way. I explain exactly what I do with the tutorial… I can’t guarantee results, but you will see the shape of what I do — Photomatix, then special cleanup in Photoshop. — this is the recipe! :)

    A few months back you made reference to an article you wrote on advice on setting up an online gallery for sales. You mentioned Bay Photo. I lost the computer with the links on it. I have been looking for the info since I lost my job as a Commercial Photographer. Would it be possible to send me the link to that article? It would be much appreciated.

    Thanks

    Love you work.

    Thanks all!

    I don’t know where that article is.. I actually thing SmugMug does a really good job – you seen my smugmug review?

    (on the mostly photo thing)

    I’ve seen SquareSpace and it’s ok, a lot of the themes seem nearly or completely identical to Tumblr themes, but I honestly have a huge preference for mix.com, sort of because it reminds me of Sarah’s blog from the movie I Am Number 4 haha
