Having fun browsing through the outtakes posted on the SF Chronicle website. For this one, I liked the explanation as much as I liked the shot.
“Suitcases - 5:40 p.m. - Sacramento and Front Street, San Francisco. I had just finished shooting a barbites assignment for 96 hours at a well-attended bar in the financial district. The early evening sun hit the sidewalk which turned it into a silvery highway. Without thinking much I snapped this shot. I hung out for a little while trying top the first shot but sometimes your first try is best. Camera settings: Canon 5D MkII, ISO 640, 1/8000, f2.8, 70mm lens. Photo: Mike Kepka / The Chronicle”
“A note about branding”. My same talented friend from college worked in advertising before starting her photography business and has some helpful things to say about branding on her blog.
One of my friends from college is an awesome wedding photographer in Michigan and she recently decorated her new studio. I’m loving her magnetic “Inspiration” wall!

Discovery
Hello, I’m starting this tumblr log to discover my definition of great creative (and to fulfill the requirements of a photography class that I’m taking!). You’ll find some of my own (quite amateur) shots in here as I learn about flash and filters, and you’ll find other images I’ve found that inspire me. I’m hoping that I’ll enjoy the journey and I hope that you’ll find something you like here too. Let the discovery begin,
Ms.Bruin
