			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to the new eras, this is the era of digital imaging. Although it was consider a new industry, but its growth are considerable huge and quite progressive. The main reason is because <a href="http://www.canvasdezign.co.uk/" target="_blank">canvas print</a> related with art, and you could hang it, its just like piece of your photo / image with art style on it.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.orangefruit.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/wood1.jpg" alt="wood1" title="wood1" width="258" height="195" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-224" /><br />
<span id="more-220"></span><br />
There were also something to remember when choosing a photo to transfer into <a href="http://www.canvasdezign.co.uk/" target="_blank">canvas art</a>. Make sure your photo are fit with your canvas, since most of the photograph has square shape which are more fit into rectangular canvas.<br />
Even better if you got good resolution photo, cause it could be zoom as big as it can get. Some good canvas should be coated to prevent scratch and crack.</p>
<p>Checking your photo for high resolution and the image quality are also important, make sure it shouldn&#8217;t below 100 dpi. Because you will got blurry photo canvas as the result if you got it below. Some also need photo editing software to be perfectly fit with your photo canvas.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.orangefruit.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/wall.jpg" alt="wall" title="wall" width="500" height="333" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-225" /></p>
<p>And last tips is pick only everlasting photo, unless you got insufficient funds, you could select it randomly.<br />
If memories photograph just remind you of some one, or you might want something others, then the choice is <a href="http://www.canvasdezign.co.uk" target="_blank">wall art</a>.</p>

Many people say that the ability of a person in photography only determined by age and hours flown. Without intending to support the<br />
or refute these ideas, the opportunity this time we we<br />
presents Joey Lawrence, a photographer who was only 18 years old<br />
that we have the sensitivity, the ability and maturity of thought<br />
a photographer. Through our interviews with him, we met some<br />
spontaneous answers are honest, simple but has depth of meaning.<br />
Seeing the work, thinking and extraordinary ability is inspiring<br />
us to bring a positive spirit photography enthusiasts Indonesia<br />
for glass and brave flog myself to try to keep<br />
become even better. <span id="more-9"></span></p>
<p><strong>How did you know photography. Tell us from the beginning.</strong><br />
I made some home movies when I was little about me being chased by dinosaurs&#8230;<br />
Then eventually our family got a digital camera point and shoot when I<br />
was older. Then I shot some local bands for a bit and eventually got bigger clients,<br />
better equipment and more money!</p>
<p><strong>What interesting for you about<br />
photography?</strong><br />
It makes me responsible for capturing<br />
a person and presenting them in one<br />
frame.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.orangefruit.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/shot3.JPG" alt="shot3" title="shot3" width="570" height="612" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-13" /><br />
<strong>What makes you love travel photography?</strong><br />
Eating all the peanuts on the flights to<br />
the locations.</p>
<p><strong>When shooting travel photography.<br />
What do you want to<br />
achieved or must be achieved?</strong><br />
I am not looking so much for a photojournalistic<br />
image, I am looking for a<br />
dignified portrait. The same thought<br />
process goes to a subject in a travel<br />
portrait as a commercial portrait. I do<br />
not believe in separating style based<br />
on the subject.</p>
<p><strong>In both technical &#038; non technical<br />
aspect, what is the most<br />
important thing on doing travel<br />
photography.</strong><br />
Putting the technical things at the<br />
back of your head only, so you may use<br />
them but are not distracted by them&#8230;<br />
and of course making a portrait with<br />
dignity.</p>
<p><strong>On Non photography aspect,<br />
what should people learn or pay<br />
attention more to be a good<br />
travel photographer.</strong><br />
Learn the story of their subject, what<br />
they believe in, or at least something<br />
small about them.</p>
<p><strong>What triggering you to create a<br />
picture?</strong><br />
It is the thing that fuels my journeys,<br />
without photography I would not be<br />
pushed to meet the interesting people<br />
I do, or see the beautiful places I see. I<br />
am very blessed to have the opportunities<br />
I have.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.orangefruit.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/shot2.JPG" alt="shot2" title="shot2" width="863" height="559" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-12" /><br />
<strong>When photography are growing<br />
faster. So many photographer<br />
have an identically the same<br />
style &#038; character. What should<br />
a photographer do to get still<br />
unique &#038; distinct?</strong><br />
It is very important to first spend some<br />
time viewing work, learning technicalities,<br />
and learning but it is also just as<br />
important to forget all about other<br />
people’s photography, and ignore the<br />
industry of it completely. When you do<br />
this, you can take a picture more honest<br />
to your vision.</p>
<p><strong>You also shoot commercial &#038;<br />
portraiture. What’s interesting<br />
about those two?</strong><br />
A new challenge every shoot.</p>
<p><strong>Which one do you like doing it<br />
most, travel photography, commercial<br />
photography or portraiture?<br />
Why?</strong><br />
I like my personal work better because I<br />
have more control over my subjects.</p>
<p><strong>What kind of photo deserved<br />
labeled as a good photo?</strong><br />
A good photo is an image that makes<br />
another photographer jealous of<br />
course!</p>
<p><strong>Share us some practical tips on<br />
making a good photos.</strong><br />
Make a lot of mistakes and experiment<br />
with everything you can.</p>
<p><strong>Not many young photographer<br />
or even they who older than you<br />
have better capability and confidence<br />
on photography. Share us<br />
some tips to at least be better on<br />
those aspect.</strong><br />
I think the best and most successful<br />
photographers are always confident<br />
but also trustworthy. If someone<br />
doesn’t trust you, they will not be able<br />
to make a good photo with you and<br />
the quality will suffer because of it. A<br />
good photographer takes time out of<br />
shooting, and adds time into investigating.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now days we could see lots of restaurants, cafe&#8217;s, and bars competing each other to show how good design and spatial concept as unique as possible to attract many visitors. Many restaurants who took interior designers and architects to get this reliable unique design concept into reality. With their original idea and being mixed with architecture design, owner expecting some new concept, which is attractive, beautiful, and also fit with owner financial.</p>
<p>To get visitor attention, there are two concept offered. One is the traditional style, and the last one is the modern concept as we know there will be lots of color and minimalist surrounding environment. Either traditional or modern style, both of them have similarities, such as must have standard restaurant equipments and entertainment.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.orangefruit.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/resto1.gif" alt="resto1" title="resto1" width="261" height="369" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-211" /></p>
<p>Talking about entertainment, the common one is television. This electronic device is a must in some restaurant. <a href="http://www.twcbc.com/" target="_blank">Business cable service could help you with the connection.<br />
<span id="more-207"></span><br />
Instead of jukebox, television could break the silence, and most important is this equipment are more informative, cause its able to give current information. <a href="http://www.directsattv.com/business/" target="_blank">Direct TV business</a> is the best satellite TV for your restaurant business.<br />
Starting from sports, finance, and many other channels, to entertained and as a plus point in your business.</p>
<p>The other largest direct satellite service TV is dish network, join their <a href="http://www.dishbusiness.com/index.shtml" target="_blank">dish business package</a>.</p>
<p>Back to our unique design, whether you choose traditional style or modern style, make sure all the surrounding equipment blend with the color of your wall / wallpaper. Some says that certain color like red, will have fast food effect. It means customer getting attracted into your restaurant, thus they will not spend a long time inside, which means more profit you will get.</p>
<p>A little bit different with modern style, traditional style doesn&#8217;t play with bright colorful color, it tends to blend with certain culture. If you&#8217;re choosing this kind of style, you&#8217;re trying to get customer comfortable inside your restaurant. Some restaurant where equip with comfy furniture and free internet hot spot. This style are for good prospect relationship, the benefit is, your customer are your walking market teller. He or she will recommend your restaurant to his / her relatives and friends.</p>

<p>Which one you&#8217;re going to choose, its all up to you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems that you love doing black &#038;<br />
white photography, Please explain<br />
why.<br />
I believe black and white is immediately<br />
more mysterious because we<br />
see in color all the time. It is also more<br />
subjective. I think it is quieter and more<br />
calm than color. I like to print all my<br />
own work and I can interpret black and<br />
white very subjectively in the darkroom.<br />
It is a personal preference.<br />
<img src="http://www.orangefruit.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/micke4.JPG" alt="micke4" title="micke4" width="675" height="567" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-162" /><br />
<br /><span id="more-161"></span></p>
<p>Everybody shoot landscape. But<br />
only selected create some good ones. What did they missed to make<br />
it good?<br />
Art, in all forms, is immensely subjective.<br />
I don’t know if anybody can give<br />
universal reasons why something<br />
should be categorized as “good” or<br />
“bad”. I certainly do not have that understanding.<br />
Some photographs touch<br />
us emotionally, more deeply than others.<br />
There are many reasons why this<br />
could be, including; choice of subject<br />
matter, technical excellence, aesthetic<br />
pleasure, personal resonance, intellectual<br />
curiosity, etc.<br />
You do very intense personal project<br />
and also commercial project. What<br />
interesting for us is both project<br />
output have the same style and the<br />
same character. While some photographer<br />
do a very different style &#038;<br />
character of output when shooting<br />
for personal &#038; commercial project.<br />
What do you think about this? Why<br />
can’t they do the same?<br />
I am very fortunate and due to the success of my landscape work, I have<br />
been able to accept commercial work<br />
which allows me to use my personal<br />
style of photographing. There would<br />
really be no reason for anybody to<br />
commission me if they didn’t want the<br />
resulting images to be in my style. I am<br />
also not sure I could photograph very<br />
well in any other way. Practically speaking,<br />
most photographers are not in a<br />
position to turn down work and it is<br />
necessary for them to adapt their style<br />
and technique to the client’s needs and<br />
wishes. I would certainly do the same<br />
if my fine art work did not give me any<br />
income!<br />
Mention one word that describe<br />
your photos<br />
Sorry, I cant : ) I will leave that answer<br />
for somebody else<br />
<br />
<img src="http://www.orangefruit.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/micke5.JPG" alt="micke5" title="micke5" width="703" height="585" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-163" /><br />
<br />
What kind of picture deserve labeled<br />
as “the great one”?<br />
I think a book could be written on<br />
this subject! In fact, many have been.<br />
I believe a “great” photograph is in<br />
the mind, heart, soul and spirit of the<br />
beholder. Some photographs may be<br />
considered “great” by consensus, others<br />
by single individuals. There are “great”<br />
photographs by ordinary photographers,<br />
and ordinary photographs by<br />
“great” photographers. Ultimately,<br />
“great” is a label, subjectively applied.<br />
You regularly do exhibition. Do you<br />
think all photographers should do<br />
exhibitions regularly? How often?<br />
And please explain the reasons.<br />
I cannot speak for other photographers.<br />
For myself, I think it is important<br />
to share images, whether it is through<br />
exhibitions, web sites, books, calendars,<br />
posters, notecards, etc. I think one<br />
of the prime reasons to be a photographer<br />
is the willingness and even<br />
necessity to exhibit what is created.<br />
Being a photographer means that I<br />
hunt for experiences. I am privileged to<br />
witness amazing things. I try to record<br />
and interpret them. I don’t believe I<br />
should hoard the results. I like to think<br />
that I am a medium for others to see<br />
things they might not otherwise have<br />
the opportunity to see. I think that I am<br />
really a guide.</p>
<p>Practically, exhibitions give me deadlines<br />
to finish prints. They help me to<br />
survey a body of work objectively, and<br />
I am always interested in the viewers<br />
reactions and responses. Exhibitions<br />
also enable to me to survive because<br />
my livelihood is very much based in<br />
print sales.<br />
If there is some kind of checklist<br />
to achieved before you press the<br />
shutter release, what aspect/point<br />
should be on the list?<br />
I would suggest that there is some sort<br />
of resonance, connection or personal<br />
response with the subject matter. But it<br />
is different for everybody. Sometimes,<br />
it is a form of therapy just to wander<br />
and photograph. The results may not<br />
even matter. Sometimes it helps to<br />
see, understand and connect us the<br />
world. Sometimes, it does precisely the<br />
opposite and rather than experience<br />
the world itself we hide behind the<br />
camera. I like to think that I am having<br />
a conversation with whatever I photograph.<br />
I try not to steal an image, but<br />
rather acknowledge that a photograph<br />
is being made.<br />
I look for an interesting composition,<br />
an arrangement of shapes and tonalities.<br />
I am drawn to certain lighting conditions and atmospheres. But it is<br />
all so personal. For example I’ve always<br />
liked to photograph in “conditions”;<br />
mist, rain, snow, etc., where distracting<br />
backgrounds are eliminated or subdued.<br />
Sunshine and blue sky has never<br />
appealed to me. Too much light tends<br />
to reveal all the details of a scene and<br />
I am not interested in a perfect photocopy.<br />
I prefer suggestion over description.<br />
I like to use the analogy of haiku<br />
poetry where just a few elements act as<br />
catalysts for one’s imagination. Often<br />
I make long time exposures so that<br />
detailed water becomes floating mist,<br />
clouds in the sky become blurred masses<br />
of tonality and a populated scene<br />
becomes empty. The world is pretty<br />
chaotic, seemingly always speeding up<br />
and getting louder and more visually<br />
dense. I am interested in finding and/or<br />
creating calm shelters from the storm,<br />
places where quiet solitude is encouraged<br />
and inner contemplation is possible.<br />
I think we could all use a break<br />
from time to time&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some people who already exist photographer once said that the ability<br />
draw a person has more or less influence on<br />
photography skills a person. Those who have the ability to draw<br />
good enough relatively easy to digest and develop<br />
photographic capabilities. To confirm that opinion, we present<br />
Bruno Mercier, a photographer who has experience working as a<br />

<span id="more-99"></span><br />
<strong>Explain to us how you get doing photography and what makes you<br />
interest on it?</strong><br />
In fact my first steps with photography took place during my childhood. My father<br />
was really addicted with photography, and he guided me in my first approaches<br />
and tentative. But in fact during all this period I knew I preferred drawing, so, after<br />
my architecture studies I wanted to be an illustrator or a comics book author, and<br />
that’s why I started to work as a professional illustrator both for press and publishing<br />
houses. It was in the mid 1980’s.</p>
<p>In the early 1990’s I took an interest in computer graphics and 3D art, working for<br />
several animated cartoons published on CD-Roms. I also designed websites. And<br />
then, I later entered a major telecom group in France as a creation director, but,<br />
finally, in 2005, I decided to pursue an artistic career once again. My goal was to<br />
draw again, but curiously photography took place. In 2006 I bought a DSLR and<br />
I found in photography, and especially in B&#038;W, all I always wanted to tell. Today<br />
photography has become my exclusive means of artistic expression.</p>

<img src="http://www.orangefruit.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/bruno3.JPG" alt="bruno3" title="bruno3" width="329" height="327" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-102" /><br />
<img src="http://www.orangefruit.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/bruno4.JPG" alt="bruno4" title="bruno4" width="411" height="411" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-101" /></p>
<p><strong>You study architecture, is there<br />
anything you have learn on<br />
architecture<br />
subject that helps you creating<br />
a good picture? Please explain.</strong></p>
<p>Of course everything you learn in your<br />
life brings a lot and improve your art.<br />
Architecture is a way to understand<br />
spaces, geometry, rhythm and construction.<br />
As an image creator architecture<br />
is a great inspiration, and a great<br />
subject to shoot, of course. Architecture<br />
has inspired some of my series like<br />
« Versailles » « Cities »or « Les Ravalet ».</p>
<p><strong>A friend once said that if a photographer<br />
can draw, it helps him<br />
doing photography. What do<br />
you think about that?<br />
What’s in the drawing capability<br />
that really helps a photographer<br />
creating a photo.</strong></p>
<p>I agree with your friend. That’s exactly<br />
what I used to think.</p>
<p>You know, I drew comics for many<br />
years, and I think it’s a major art. I really<br />
learned a lot in this job. The way you<br />
have to compose a picture to tell a<br />
story, the scene cuts, the light work,<br />
importance of black, use of shadows,<br />
etc. When I look at some of my photos,</p>
<p>I recognize this influence in the means<br />
I use to take and develop the photograph.<br />
If you just look an illustration or<br />
a comic, you can easily see the means<br />
the author used to bring you in the<br />
action. In my opinion, it ‘s definitely the<br />
same process.</p>
<p><strong>You don’t have a photography<br />
education background. How do<br />
you learn it and how to still get<br />
improved time to time?<br />
</strong></p>
<p>That’s right I never learn photography<br />
at school, but my father taught me a lot</p>
<p>when I was a teenager.<br />
But when I started, in 2006, I didn’t<br />
really know what I would do with photography,</p>
<p>but when I realized my first<br />
b&#038;w photos, I did! It was a revelation..<br />
I subscribed to some Art communities<br />
on the internet in September 2006 and<br />
began to show my work. Those communities<br />
really helped me a lot to go<br />
further in each new pic or series. And<br />
it’s a fact that I have really learned a lot<br />
showing my work to others, reading<br />
critiques or single comments. Little by<br />
little I improved the style, listening to<br />
what people said on my photographs,<br />
and finally I felt the direction I want to<br />
take.</p>
