My First Apple Mac Portrait

This picture was taken on my iPhone and then edited on my new MacBook Pro .. I am using it as a test picture for Pixelpipe .. an interesting app to cross post to many online services all at once. If it all works the way I hope it will, it will revolutionize my way of sharing across my multiple media services.

Art In Action Blog

noreply@blogger.com (RobinAnn) — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 14:33:00 +0000

With the creation of the new Art In Action Website and the desire to upkeep a professional photo blog, I have decided to use this website which I created back in 2006 as a foundation. For now, take a look at what I have done in the past and soon there will be a constant new stream of Art In Action photography.

6 Ways To Chose a Great Photographer

noreply@blogger.com (RobinAnn) — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 18:10:00 +0000

How do you find the right Photographer? This is the burning question most people will ask themselves again and again while hiring a freelancer to complete a job assignment. We all want the best we can get for our marketing dollar -- so how do you know who has actual talent and who is just a schlep with a point-and-shoot?

TOP SIX CHECK-POINTS

1) Portfolio : A Poor Presentation
The presentation of a portfolio can make or break the images. If you see great images but the pages you view them in are lousy -- such as email attachments, boring webpages -- or on a yahoo or similar type account, You can be sure photography doesn't have that photographer's full attention; the photographer in question is part-time, at best, and you really don't want to trust your job in the hands of someone who isn't living, breathing and sleeping photography. A poor portfolio presentation is your first clue to keep shopping.

2) Portfolio : Over-The-Top Presentation
This too can be a warning sign. If you are floored by the 'awesomeness' of the presentation's entail -- make darn sure the work can support the presentation. Some people can wrap it up all nice but really -- who else could make that shot? Maybe even you..

3) Photographer's Education
Does your photographer have a Bio or a CV or a link which tells you where they were educated? Was it in Photography? Most do not show where or what they learned. Now don't you wonder if they participated in an online forum for some tips and tricks from real pro's? Or maybe they just visited a library book or two..

4) The photographs you see 'speak' to you.
When you look at the photographer's work, it makes you pause, react, or meditate. You feel emotion - You become inspired - You get swept away. Some photographs are stories. Those taken by truly gifted professionals are the images that will inspire your client base as well.

5) Portfolio Samples
What do you want your photographer to create for you? Does the photographer have anything like that in their portfolio? If you want someone to shoot your product outdoors and the portfolio only shows studio shots you should immediately eliminate them from your search or risk being unhappy with the results, no matter what the price.

6) Extreme Works
How many people do you know that will battle 35mph in sub-freezing weather winds to make a photograph? (see above). How about someone who will ski down a hill backwards to make the shot? How much training do you need to create underwater photographs?

If you see work in a photographers portfolio that shouts: "This is not an easy shot!" you can bet your photographer will go the extra mile for you too.

You Have the Power to Reshape History

noreply@blogger.com (RobinAnn) — Sun, 16 Sep 2007 21:07:00 +0000

Jeffrey Feldman, author of "Framing the Debate" dares to speak liberally about the transfer of information in this country... and does a fine job conveying his message.

CNN broadcast a special engagement at Cody's bookstore in Berkeley, California for him while on tour promoting his book. The presentation was an introduction to some and a reawakening for others. Over the years, many of you will have perceived thoughts he presented, but were unable to connect with anything tangible. Hearsay, you might call it.

Jeffrey Feldman owns and plays a magnificent harp on hearsay.. his instrument produces a beautiful sound which is orchestrated in tune with the existing conservative communication machine - only he and his band are marching to a different tune.

Feldman presents the media in their true light, as the Conservatives bitch -- pushing their highly paid hearsay issues. Do not deny yourself what is the truth. Your news is as watered down as that ice-coffee you left in the sun for that important phone call. Friendships, payrolls and favors funded by Conservatives and imported to the media via a multitude of channels place keywords and simplistic ideas to make easy headlines. Soon, everyone is saying the same thing, whether it is right or wrong.

This is not to say that all media is politically incorrect. To say that would taint the very good blogs that do exist; those written with passion and conviction. Those dedicated to preservation of truth and progress. The writing comes from beliefs & values and is not motivated by dollars, but is motivated by sense.

We all have the power to balance the scales but it will not be easy. We all must band together if we are to repair the damage. My first recommendation would be to borrow Jeffrey Feldman's book "Framing the Election" from the library and read it from cover to cover.

Ready for another cup of coffee?
One Hundred percent of the time, 98% of your thoughts are in frames.

From Wikipedia:

“In media studies, sociology and psychology, framing is an unavoidable process of selective control over the individual's perception of the meanings attributed to words or phrases.” Simple Lesson in Framing

George Lakoff, in teaching his Cognitive Science 101 course at the University of California, Berkeley gives his students a directive: "Do not think of an elephant!" - According to Lakoff, it is impossible not to think of an elephant as the mere mention of the word "elephant" provokes an image and an accompanying frame.

So wake up America! Enjoy that coffee and rewrite yourself and history... in frames.

Hillary Clinton visits New Hampshire

noreply@blogger.com (RobinAnn) — Tue, 28 Aug 2007 13:33:00 +0000

Here are some images taken while in Manchester, NH on 8/23/07 while Hillary spoke to a crowd of about 200 from the front porch of Senator Lou D'Allesandro's home in Manchester, NH.

Can you feel her intent as she listens for ideas and contributions which will help our nation? People ask her to define her platform and she is able to give hope to a very sad nation.

Young and old women.. this is our feminine Leader! Men.. if you have any doubt -- you must educate yourself to what this women (and all the other candidates) are all about; then you can trust your conclusion.

Can you see it? Hillary speaks from the heart.

Hillary and Senator Lou D'Allesandro, D-Manchester, NH.

Hillary and Lou after her speech.

Some things in life are left to chance and some things you work very hard to get control over. By chance, I was able to meet Hillary Clinton and so help me, I will work as hard as I can help this woman get elected!

Hillary is strong with smart ideas. While I listened to her campaign (albeit I was also taking photographs of her), I noticed that she stood tall and proud, and spoke with conviction about bringing America to peace instead of living with war. She was flawless in her overall presentation - I am convinced she has the enthusiasm, energy and solutions to make it real.

Watch and listen to this remarkable woman as much as you can and you will find your own connection to the potential reality she can bring into existence.

May god help us to help her help our country.
