About Me

My photo
Hello I am JimBo, and I am a weekend photographer. Amateur all the way!! Ok, this blog is to enhance my web sight photobyjimbo.com. And is where I offer a little explanation for my photos. I am not any kind of a technical genius at all. I work with an Adobe Photoshop “Elements 2.0” and that is a better program then any CS2 program in that you don’t have to go to school to learn how to use it. I am an adrenalin junkie!! I grew up surfing, got into white water kayaking and rafting. Skydiving, skiing, Hang gliding and Para gliding, and now this year I will have a trike flying this summer, and also I will get into filmmaking. Now we will be able take you for a ride soon! And the reason for my blog is… I want to make as many friends as possible so as when I have a film release there will be a fallowing I hope! Here is my DoorPost Film Project web sight. www.thedoorpost.com/freeair this is a great sight for anyone who is playing with the idea of breaking into the industry. So thank you for coming by and remember, every time you pick up a camera and when you are composing, don’t forget to “See the Light” JimBo

Von


This portrait of my boss Von was taken in the morning hours on a street side coffee stand. The very best time for taking portraits out doors, is in the morning hours. Film and morning sunlight was made for one another. And in the late afternoon is also a excellent time for portraits. I shot Von with my Mamiya RB 67. With a 90mm lens and a Bellows lens hood on tripod. For exposure I wanted a shallow Depth of field so I used my meter to find my shutter speed. My F-stop was 5.6 and this gave me a quick shutter speed.
