Free Photography Lessons, Part 2: Composition

Posted on January 27th, 2010 by admin in free pictures | 3 Comments »

I gladly offer this basic, 5-part series of photography lessons FOR FREE! Our world has become increasingly visual in the way we communicate. We not only take more pictures, we show them, send them and display them to more eyes than ever before. Wouldn’t it be nice to capture and show better pictures?

In this series, I get us thinking about…

1. How to tell a story with our photographs by understanding the 4 dimensions associated with the art.

2. The basic elements of “composing” our photographic story. How do we put things in our viewfinders so people get the essence of that moment that inspired us.

3. Understanding exposure, light and color and how they combine to say what we want.

4. How lens choice and operation effects focus and how focus effects what we show in our photos

5. The people in our photographs and the people we are showing them to.

Please enjoy these lessons. They’re not meant to be comprehensive and their not meant to be exhaustive or advanced. That doesn’t mean I don’t encourage any questions you might want to post for either me to try to answer or anyone else who comes along.

Please, be kind, helpful and enjoy.

Waffen SS in color Farbe Alte Kameraden March Königgrätzer Marsch

Posted on October 5th, 2009 by admin in color pictures | 25 Comments »

Please read this. Color pictures of the Waffen SS are pretty rare if you ask me. It took me a pretty long time to find some so there are probably not many around. After the first three photo’s you will see some colored photo’s, I’ve also placed that in the video but colored means that they are colored post war. But never less, they still look very nice and they are original but as said before colored. I’ve placed an message (1:36) in the video where the pictures are original color again. It is possible that there are more recolered photo’s in the video but most of them are original. Of course I’m not the all knowing man about that and I can not guarantee that they’re all original and all SS. But I’m pretty sure most so not all of them are SS. This is most of my collection so I just want to share that with you guys.

Next thing, the music. The reason that I added Alte Kamareden and the Königgrätzer march is this: I would like to make this video legal in all countries. Not all countries allow all music, for example a lot of Nazi music is banned in Germany and youtube will block that so that it’s not visible in Germany. I hope they allow this video since I didn’t use Nazi music. Alte Kameraden is one of the most famous marches I guess. Most of us now the melody. The Königgratzer march is also pretty well known. For example it is used in the Indiana Jones movie The last crusade and they use it in Call of Duty World at War (a game).

I’ve placed some information by the photo’s that I have information from. I hope all the information is correct but I think most of it is. I don’t want to spread nonsense. I should write some historical information about the Waffen SS here perhaps so lets call that: pending….

Disclaimer: I’m not a Nazi myself although I believe in Nationalism and Patriotism I’m also conservative and I’m a Protestant (Dutch reformed). I can type about my other thinking about Europe and America but I think I will let that one slip. No reason to talk about that here. The Waffen SS for me is a great fighting unit, probably time considered the best army there ever was. Especially the high divisions like the Leibstandarte, Wiking, Das Reich. The Waffen SS was also the first international army since they had many non German volunteers. Hitler didn’t allow Himmler to recruit too much Germans. He only allowed Himmler to recruit something like under 10% I’m not sure now have to look that up. But Himmler thought that it was a great opportunity to recruit people from the other Germanic countries. Like Belgium, Holland, Norway etcetera. Non Germans couldn’t join the Wehrmacht so this was a great change to get a stronger army. Alright I’ll knock this off now since I’m typing my own knowledge here.

I personally am a man that likes the freedom of speech, so basically you can say what you want but show some respect. I hope as said before that this video will be ‘Germany legal’ so please don’t add to many Sieg Heils or HH’s since youtube will probably ban it then. Sieg Heil is: Sieg = victory Heil = Hail. Remember that we can say a bit less in Europe than the American citizens can. Especially if we’re talking about Nazi things. I will not go into that now since I have to type probably a book about that then!!

I hope I covered most for now and I hope that my story makes any sense. I didnt check it all but perhaps Ill add some information in the future here or perhaps Ill change something.
Thank you for watching and remember to show some respect to all. Danke schön. Questions or critique are always welcome btw.

Jamey Johnson – In Color Lyrics

I said grandpa whats this picture here its all black and white it aint real clear is that you there? He said yeah i was 11 times were tough back in ‘35 thats me and uncle Joe just tryin to survive a cotton farm in the great depression.

If it looks like we were scared to death like a couple of kids just trying to save each other you should’ve seen it in color.

Ohh and this one here was taken over seas in the middle of in 1943 in the winter time you can almost see my breath that was my tail gunner ole Johnny Magee he was a high school teacher from new Orleans and he had my back right through the day we left.

If it looks like we were scared to death like a couple of kids just trying to save each other you should’ve seen it in color.

A picture’s worth a thousand words but you cant see what those shades of gray keep covered you should’ve seen it in color

This one is my favorite one. This is me and grandma in the summer sun all dressed up the day we said our vows. You can’t tell it here but it was hot that June and that rose was red and her eyes were blue and just look at that smile I was so proud. Thats the story of my life right there in black and white

And if it looks like we were scared to death like a couple of kids just trying to save each other you should’ve seen it in color.

A pictures worth a thousand words but you cant see what those shades of gray keep covered you should have seen it in color.

You should have seen it in color

Yeah a pictures worth a thousand words but you cant see what those shades of gray keep covered you should have seen it in color.
