DMC Sweated On Me

IMG_1616 copy

Yeah, suckas -- that's how close I was standing! The show was live, and fun to see him play in person, even without the trademark glasses I used to like from the 80's. The band Dynamic Duo was also fun, as was a cool human beat boxer and other Korean acts.

I was in the front row and sometimes had to but the camera over my head and behind me to get shots, even with my 10-22mm lens. That's close, baby, and the best way to see someone like DMC in person.

Thanks be to Regina, aka ExpatJane, for both me and FMS for setting up and arranging this one. She's got skills to pay the medical bills. And if you didn't see DMC, but would have wanted to come out, please keep up with us over at FeetManSeoul.com a bit more! We got the line on the best stuff on the streets.

And go over to FMS if you wanna see more pictures and the lowdown on the show.

"Why Be Critical?"

  • Before you say this site is "anti-Korean" or bashing Korea – read this: "Why Be Critical?" Chances are, if you're simply angry because I am a social critic in Korea but not actually Korean, see if your argument isn't just a kneejerk response that follows these patterns.

Photo Classes!

  • Session 1: Just the Basics Dealing with the basic operations and functions of your DSLR, explaining each function, button, and doo-hickey. The bulk of the session is likely going to stick around the relationship between aperture and shutter, as well as depth-of-field. Basically everything on your camera has something to do with this relationship.

    Session 2: Composition and Shooting (Shooting Session 1) We'll take those examples and look at them on the big screen, while also answering the concrete questions that will pop up about the stuff we learned before. Then we'll talk about composition and other framing issues, including lens lengths and why some lenses are worth $100 bucks and some are worth $10,000.

    Session 3: Flashes and Advanced Exposure (Shooting Session 2) Dealing with flash, in terms of compensating above and below exposure levels (bracketing), as well as other bracketing techniques in general.

    Session 4: Final Session/Critiques Keeping it open, determined by the class.

    Four 3-hour sessions, as well as shooting sessions, photo discussions, and critiques. An individual photo essay will also be done as part of the ongoing class assignments. Inquire at the email address at the top right of this page.
