Feature-Fest Vol. 13: MacroYou may have noticed that, recently, I have been getting into macro. I already did this a lot, but I never really submitted them before. But, here are some of my own, recent macro submissions: Today, I want to highlight some of my favourite macro photographs. 54.

How to: Create a FeatureSo you want to create a feature? Keep reading!Making a feature isn't as easy as you might think it is. You don't just drag and drop pieces into a journal, it is kind of like creating art!There are some questions that get asked a lot: Why is my feature getting so little views? Am I doing something wrong? Why aren't people commenting on it?And a bunch more just like these!The answer to these is not simple. Thing is, your feature might not be getting much attention because maybe, you're not posting them regularly, or maybe they look like a hot mess, or maybe you're featuring the "wrong pieces."In this article, I will tell you all about how I work when I create a feature, what I think is important in a feature and some handy tips and tricks for writing a feature. What is a fea

Why I love macro photographyIn case you haven’t noticed it yet, I may have an interest in macrophotography First of all, here is a definition, by MarcosRodriguez of macro photography: "A Macro photograph shows a subject that is life size compared to the size of the negative of a SLR or sensor in a Full Frame DSLR, that's a 1:1 reproduction ratio aspect. […] Often a ratio aspect of 1:2 is also considered Macro, although that ratio shows subjects which life size is half of the size compared to the negative or sensor, I prefer to call those pictures Close-up photographies." (quote from here) But why do I love it so much? In order to answer that question, I asked for the help of some other macro lovers: Because it makes you discover a wh
Collective Feature #19! It's still not quite spring out, but it's getting there. The smaller trees around campus are starting to bud and flowers will be here within the next week or so. It's suppose to warm up past 70 degrees by Friday, so fingers crossed for good weather. I have a month left of this semester. Ugh, I just wanna go back home. So close. I also left a few groups that were un-active because my images kept expiring that I submitted. So, if you know of any photography groups that are looking for members, let me know! I'm always looking for more editions into my features! The same "rules" apply as they did last time. Throughout every photography category in my favorites, I will choose 10 entries (usually the first 10 that show up, or I begin where I left off) that'll be featured. With every category, I keep a record of who is featured, that way no name gets repeated twice in one category. Only one entry per category. If you have any specific phot

Collective Feature #16! Mid-terms are almost done, thank goodness. Got one this Wednesday and one on Friday and then I'll be blasting off back home! Not much else to report. Something is going on with Tyler and I found out in a not so good way. Back home, my friend Anthony was going off the chain (accusing my friend who he is staying with atm, literally sleeping on a couch, of kicking him out and that she wants nothing to do with him and everyone leaves him eventually, etc.) Not a good situation. And as much I tried explaining to him that she was not literally kicking him out, he wasn't convinced. That was last Wednesday. I messaged Tyler (haven't heard from him in over a week at that point which is really odd considering he always snapchats or messages me or something. We typically talk on the phone every weekend. Yet he was uploading stuff on Facebook, so he hadn't just vanished.) because he was better at dealing with higher levels of emotions and such. Come to find out that apparently we

Browsing by Newest v27Other Things Firstseniormentors Critique Night is back for this week - and with very short notice! This evening at 3pm PST/6pm EST/11pm GMT I'll be hosting the event in :#seniors: and all media are welcome. And in other chat network news, I'm working with CRPhotography to revamp the old :#photographers: chat so pop in there any time to watch me break privclasses and confuse myself I guess. I'll be posting a "formal" relaunch journal about it on Saturday and there will be an informal hangout-type event in there all day. I'm also looking to bring on some new moderators for the room, so if you're interested shoot a note to CRPhotography with "Chat Mod" or something like that in the subject line.Are you an American photographer? If so, check out justanothersomeone's post about Photo Competition! - a great opportunity to get your work judged and get some exposure if you make the cut.Now for some special "I'm not d
Collective Feature #14! This past week was mainly quiet, just classes and homework, the usual. The club hike that was planned for this Saturday was cancelled due to lack of participation, so I'll probably head up to Teatown anyway, provided the weather is stable. This college moves so slow. I sent in my requested hours for work on Friday and still have yet to have them confirmed. I had hours set up on Saturday and Sunday, so obviously I wasn't able to work those. I mean, no one's here over the weekends anyway, but still. Pain in the ass. The same "rules" apply as they did last time. Throughout every photography category in my favorites, I will choose 10 entries (usually the first 10 that show up, or I begin where I left off) that'll be featured. With every category, I keep a record of who is featured, that way no name gets repeated twice in one category. Only one entry per category.

Too many faves to feature! featureHello all! I'm just going to go ahead and say I went overboard again collecting faves I wanted to feature. In order to keep collecting, here's once again a very mixed feature in which I am featuring people I know and also, those I don' t know from a hole in the wall. I just can't help myself sometimes....I have to feature what I love! So please, enjoy these wonderful works, and please visit their galleries and pass the love on. Mademoiselle Perez by SteveCampbell

Feature Friday #3: Tiny Life:iconhello1plz::iconhello2plz:Hi everyone! Sorry for having this FF one day later again, but I am repaying you for this by making it way bigger than the previous two! In fact, it's bigger than both of the last two features combined. Yay!Feature Friday info:Feature Friday is a little weekly project seeking to feature beautiful art of all themes, but most importantly, bringing spotlight to unknown pieces and artists. Doesn't mean I won't include lovely popular pieces, but unknown artists are my priority. The project is open to suggestions on the next features' themes (or even pieces to feature!) Feel free to suggest any theme you'd like to see. In addition, if the theme will be one suggested by you, you'll get featured as a suggester. Today's theme suggested by::iconuszatyarbuz:UszatyArbuz

Feature #73, New Skills, Turning 40 and QuestionHoly snickerdoodles!!! Could it be a FEATURE after almost two months????? Yep, boys and girls, it's feature time!!!!!!!!!!!!!So, Candi, where have you been? Never fear all is well and good! I've just been off practicing becoming a professional towel folder. You can never have too many skills because you never know when pole swinging and sucking on necks just won't work out for you anymore. I'm back...I think... we'll see how it goes, but hopefully I will be around more often again. Well, in about two weeks I turn the big four-O. I'm not quite sure what to think about this. Part of me is okay, but part of me is freaking out that I'm becoming old. I mean 40 isn't really old, but as a kid 40 was pretty dang ancient. So, I'm thinking I'm well on my way to being pretty dang ancient... Don't worry about me I'll be just fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnne....... :cri
