Field Trip to Keatley's Place

I am working on an On Assignment post for later this week, but photographer John Keatley has an OA post up right now.

In it, he details his portrait of writer/director Josh Hornbeck. It's a nice walk-thru on building depth and character with light -- in a small room with light walls. Lord knows we see enough of those. At least the guy was not assigned to be shot working at a computer.

Had a chance to meet and have lunch with John in Seattle last week, where he showed me two of his city's great attractions -- fresh seafood and The Gum Wall.

One was yummy. The other, um, not so much.

Thanks for another en-light-ening link =) I shot a few portraits at the gum wall a couple months ago, my take is below. You've been a tremendous help to my photography.

I feel the image would benefit greatly form an orange filter on the flash. There is a clear presence of foreign light. In my view the image could use more drama.

I would think all of the comments would be over at John's blog.

(Just checked -- Yep. 23 there.)
