Tucson Sports Photography: Radio Triggers Part 1

http://topher04r1.blogspot.com/2008/03/sdfsdf.html

Take your photography to the next level. Mar 18, 2008. Radio Triggers Part 1. At a venue a couple of weeks back somebody asked me a question that has been asked of me several times over the past few months. I figured if nothing else it would be something good to talk about and share with everyone. So how do I fire strobes that are not mounted to my camera? Easy, I use Pocket Wizards They can be found HERE. Here’s the bad part. There is also the Elinchrom Skyports which are in the $100 - $150 price range ...

http://topher04r1.blogspot.com/2008/01/safety-first.html

Take your photography to the next level. Jan 19, 2008. It’s been a while since I’ve written anything here but I feel it’s long overdue that I talk about something important; safety. Before we dive in to technique and gear (later blogs) I want to cover something that I think is one of the most important and most frequently overlooked. Taking simple precautions can help save you from a world of hurt later on down the line if something happens. (IE: light stand falling over and hurting somebody etc). Keepin...

Take your photography to the next level. May 8, 2008. Shooting Through The Fence (TTF). So it’s the day of the big game and if you’re anything like me odds are that you have a bag of sunflower seeds in one hand and in the other you’re sporting some serious glass. On problem though … There is an awful contraption in your way that resembles a torture device from the Spanish inquisition. Want to guess what that is? If you guessed that it’s a chain link fence. You’re absolutely right! For your front element,.

Tucson Sports Photography: Batteries

http://topher04r1.blogspot.com/2008/03/batteries.html

Take your photography to the next level. Mar 21, 2008. Last week I was at talking with my buddy Noah and we got on the subject of batteries, to be specific rechargeable batteries. As photographers we are constantly replace batteries in our flashes and honestly I don’t see a point in using “disposable” batteries. Let’s face it they last for about 45 minutes, give us slow recycle times and when there dead, there dead. How cool is that? Don’t get me wrong, there is a down side. The first type that we use is...

Take your photography to the next level. Mar 19, 2008. If I could shout that across the field I think I might. Honestly this is one of the biggest.

Tucson Sports Photography: Warm and dry...

http://topher04r1.blogspot.com/2008/07/warm-and-dry.html

Take your photography to the next level. Jul 27, 2008. If you would have asked me a couple of years back what my thoughts are on “protection” for my camera equipment I would have probably given you a funny look and said something along the lines of “from what“. Today were going to take a look at what exactly it is that each photographer needs to keep not only them safe but there camera gear safe as well. Nope it’s not a football or a sparsely dressed cheerleader;. It’s a raindrop. Put there camera away.
