The ingredients are fine large format film cameras.
A location and knowing how to use the light.
A tripod, film and metering skills as well as composition skills. A basic knowledge of shooting transparencies. 645, 6 x 7, 4 x 5 or 8 x 10.
About 25 years of practice.
A very patient wife who lives the spots you spend days at
while you fuddle about with this and that.
After a while, the photos just start to happen.
Though you may like the results, others may feel the efforts yielded only marginal, almost 1st grade results.
Pride in tact, you go back out and try to do better next time.
The learning curve takes a lifetime. Many places I've been the professors of filmography are stacked up on the ridges and creeks, honing their skills and sharing all they know with each other. No one knows it all in this game.
Modern digital can almost equal medium format, but not really, I guess from what I know fine film still exceeds the tonal range of digital full frame cameras.
But, I profess to know nothing. Only what I prefer.
It's a big world out there, surely someone somewhere will prove me wrong.

I know you will probably disable my iReport account for this, but look at yourselves. It is disgusting what you are doing to try and get a story. Share Your Story? What in the world kind of insensitivity is that? Do you realize that there people who have just lost their children here? Seriously just report the story - we don't need a crap ton of footage and coverage. What in the world went wrong with you people? Try and give people their dignity please.

Saw this the other day. I am a very devout Christian and believe it to be a miracle, but to each his or her own. Either way it was neat and it was not photoshopped, I swear.

Featuring simple Italian dishes made from the finest ingredients, in a warm, thoughtfully designed environment, Cucina Asellina is located adjacent to the Loews Hotel and is open for lunch and dinner seven days a week.

Inspired by the flavors and textures of rustic Italian cuisine, Cucina Asellina is reminiscent of a simple Italian kitchen. A warm, inviting atmopshere welcomes guests to enjoy a delicous meal prepared just as one would envision served at a traditional Italian family dinner table.

Ho Ho Ho...
Santa Claus is in the town. Actually not one,but thousands of them. And elves, and raindears and ginger bread cookies, and even walking Christmas Trees. Everything because of annual Santacon. It takes place in many countries for passed years.
The first SantaCon took place in San Francisco in 1994.

 

In 2011, Santa raised $10,000 for Toys for Tots and donated over 6,000 lbs of food to Manhattan and Brooklyn food banks.They continue the food drive and collecting toys this year as well.

 

As wonderful as the idea sounds, unfortunately many Santas use the event as an excuse to get drunk and behave recklessly. Thousands of Santas is visiting many bars and pubs starting at 10:00am.
Santacon in New York City started today - December 15th 2012, at Pier 84 at 42nd street. At 10:20am you could see policemen giving tickets to some participators for drinking alcohol in public place.
Some Santas were playing dodge- ball which ended with broken camera and bleeding hand of a camera person filming the event.

 

Santas started to walk to bars after 11:00am. The schedule included stops f.ex. at night clubs, Grand Central Terminal, Rink at Bryant Park, Union Square and more. The After party is going to take place at Brooklyn at 7:00pm.
If Santas still be standing on their feet it is.

Everywhere you go in the world, there are times when you desperately crave for your native dishes. That is exactly what I long for - to find the best Filipino restaurant in London until a friend (Ariel) ushered me the way to one somewhere in South Lambeth Road two miles away from Central London. The Manila World Buffet Ltd, owned and managed by Chef Peter P. Oris just ticked all the boxes. Mr. Oris takes great pride in his authentic and traditional way of cooking Filipino foods.

a) The ground floor offers sumptuous buffet.
b) The lower level can be rented for private parties with karaoke bar.
c) Foods such as Poach Salmon in Aspect, Prawns Gambas, etc. can be ordered for special occasions.
d) The restaurant's entrance.

My sincere condolences to those who were left behind. As a mother, stepmother and grandmother of 5 beautiful granddaughters ranging in age from 15 - 1 I don't even want to try to imagine how the families feel at this point in time.

Now is the time for grieving, praying and ensuring all of the other children recover from the trauma.

My thoughts and prayers are also with the first responders who will, in all likelihood, not be able to get the sight of those 18 little bodies out of their minds for years to come, without shedding tears.

This is not the time for politics, for discussions on gun control or mental health. This is the time for grieving a great loss and for supporting those who need it.

The time to discuss all of the issues that may have prevented this tragedy will be in the near future, when the anger has subsided and good sense returns.

We are sending our thoughts,prayers & love to all the victims, the family, friends & the community.
The senseless violence needs to end. Nobody deserves to have to deal with this type of violence or violence of any kind.
Hopefully this will wake up the need for change and tougher gun laws as well as tighter restrictions,guidelines & even testing to prove that someone is mentally fit to even own a gun.
