The art of motion photography

Here's a great story from NPR about Eadweard Muybridge who created fine art images that scientists could use to learn about motion.   On this page of the Picture Show blog produced by NPR, snipets of his series are in motion as you scroll down.

"As the Corcoran Gallery of Art opens the first-ever retrospective of his work, NPR wants to honor him with a little contest. The top three Muybridge-inspired creations will be featured on the Picture Show blog, as well as the official Corcoran Muybridge exhibition Web site."

Ramon the wire-weiner dog wants his pictures to be considered in this contest.  I can't let him down.  The pictures will be posted here after our entry.  Wish us luck!

How I built my business in photography.

How are you building your business?  

I built mine by referrals and my passion for sports and ski photography.  Shooting ski action took me around the world, so much fun and great people.  I managed to get lost on several continents.
An editor for Newsweek said,  "If you can shoot skiing, you can shoot anything!"

For the next few days I will post some of my favorite images.  

Before the Women's Freestyle Moguls in Lillehammer, Norway,  I made my way to the top of the course to find this spot.  Snow from the bumps just skied follows the racer for a great graphic texture.
