  • HT2384 - Your Way of Seeing the World
    HT2384 - Your Way of Seeing the World An element of human nature that I find constantly amusing is the advice I receive from others about where to go to make a photograph. Isn't it interesting that no one ever says why I should make a photograph, what it's aesthetic might be, what my intent could be, what the content might reveal, how said location might blend gracefully with my other work, or how their suggestion might be insightful. Advice is always about location, location, location — good advice for real estate, but not necessarily for art making.

  • HT2383 - Shooting Skies for Sky Replacement
    HT2383 - Shooting Skies for Sky Replacement I'm still slightly hesitant to use Sky Replacement because it seems to approach a line of demarcation that I'm not particularly comfortable crossing. That said, there are times when it's the only solution to salvage an image. With this in mind, I've started amassing my own collection of cloudy and colorful sky images. Somehow, probably with questionable justification, it seems less of a cheat if I'm using my own cloud images.

  • HT2382 - Amazingly Handheld
    HT2382 - Amazingly Handheld The old rule of thumb I learned in my youth about shutter speeds advises that we should use a tripod unless the shutter speed is at least 1 over the focal length of the lens. For example, using 50 mm lens I should be able to hand hold at 1/50th of a second. The other day, I hand held a one second exposure with a 200 mm lens that is tack sharp. Seven to eight stops of stabilization. Amazing! Show your appreciation for our free weekly Podcast and our free daily Here's a Thought… with a donation Thanks!

  • HT2381 - PBWA Is Not Luck
    HT2381 - PBWA Is Not Luck On several occasions, I've mentioned that my favorite way of exploring photography is PBWA — Photography By Wandering Around. At first this might look like a dependence on luck, but I think there is more to it than random happenstance. It has to do with subconscious sensitivities Show your appreciation for our free weekly Podcast and our free daily Here's a Thought… with a donation Thanks!

  • LW1471 - A Case for Project Photography
    LW1471 - A Case for Project Photography We all love creating that spectacular image that gets matted, framed, and hung on the wall. There is a real sense of accomplishment in a single image like this that we can be proud of. A case can be made, however, for project-oriented photography and the different challenges a project presents to us. A single image can be a lucky shot. A project always demands more of us as creators and as masters of the craft.

About LensWork - Photography and the Creative Process

Random Observations on Art, Photography, and the Creative Process. These talks focus on the creative process in fine art photography. LensWork editor Brooks Jensen side-steps techno-talk and artspeak to offer a stimulating mix of ideas, experience, and observations from his 50 years as a fine art photographer, writer, and publisher. Topics include a wide range of subjects from finding subject matter to presenting your work, and building an audience. Included in this RSS Feed are the LensWork Podcasts — posted weekly, typically 10-20 minutes exploring a topic a bit more deeply — and our almost daily Here's a thought… audios (extracted from the videos.) Here's a thought… are snippets, fragments, morsels, and tidbits from Brooks' fertile (and sometimes swiss-cheesy) brain. Usually just a minute or two. Always about photography and the art life. Brooks Jensen is the publisher of LensWork, one of the world's most respected and award-winning photography publications, known for its museum-book quality printing and luxurious design. LensWork has subscribers in over 73 countries. He is the author of 13 books on photography and the creative life -- the latest books are The Best of the LensWork Interviews (2016), Photography, Art, and Media (2016), and the four annual volumes of Seeing in SIXES (2016-2019).
