Photobook Give-away II

And the winner is…

Adriana Durian

Even though no one who entered the contest followed all of my rules, I’m a forgiving person. Adriana was the first to hop on the bandwagon with a photographer and although he may not be my favourite guy out there, His work is inspiring.

I’ll be giving away one of my books to Adriana and I have one more to give away! (That’s why it says Give-away II…)

This time, I’ll ask you to send an email to comp@kerrphotography.ca and I’ll take your submission of favourite photographer/picture and post it to twitter and facebook for all of the followers to see. If you’d like to re-enter an image or photographer, go ahead, I’m not going to say “no”. The contest for the second give-away of Kerr Photography begins right now and will end sometime around February 14th.

In the meanwhile, please keep coming back to check on posts and subscribe to my twitter feed so you can keep track of all the entries!

Competition Time

Competition is closed

As I am sitting here at my computer, Herbal tea within reach and Justice in the ears, I am realizing, I should have got this post out a couple of days ago. If not weeks ago. I’m going to be holding a little competition in the next week. It’s inspired by a fellow photographer, Reuben Krabbe who put out a competition a little while back. In the spirit of the times, I’d like to do a small give-away! I’ve put together a small collection of my images and had it printed by an online printing company. The link for the book has been in the sidebar of my blog for the past couple weeks (go ahead and check, I can wait…) with a little preview.

Why is it so?

Kerr_20090711_3903 I don’t know what my fascination with black and white photography is lately. I think it’s the contrast. Not the tonal contrast but the fact that black and white images are an interpretation of reality, not an image of reality. Merely representing shape, form and tone. It’s raw. I guess. That’s what I’m trying to say. I dig it. I was reading a blog about photography techniques. I came to the realization that “technique” is only one way of doing things. It suggests that you should use the lowest possible ISO when taking black and white images. The reason is because noise is evil and bad. Seriously. I like noisy pictures as much as I like noiseless pictures. It depends on my mood.

nine-thirty

Today, as mentioned before, I had two more photoshoots. The first one was great, but it ran overtime by a bit. It started out at a local coffee shop where I had some outdoor shots and then went inside and did some interiors as well.
