[MUSIC] Hello and thank you very much for listening to this episode of the Billy Newman photo podcast. I hear different industries kind of talk about what a good day of work is or how that is to kind of get out and get what you need done. And just as like a creative system, it's sort of tough in photography. There's a lot of the entrepreneurial and sort of business related stuff of how do you get paid and how do you operate in a business, how do you function as a photographer sort of a thing. But still outside of that you need to do something nourishing in the system of creativity where you're kind of gaining new ideas and putting new materials together and sort of figuring out a way to make a union of something new with media and with something visual, especially as fast as technology is moving forward. It's definitely an interesting vector kind of using the progression of technology and artistic creativity to try and make new pieces of media to put out. And that's what I really like about new media as it goes. So it's kind of interesting. I'm kind of thinking about the way of making pieces of media and new media elements and working with photographs and stuff. But it's something that I've been really interested for a long time. [MUSIC] You can see more of my work at BillyNewmanPhoto.com. You can check out some of my photo books on Amazon. I think you can look up Billy Newman under the authors section there and see some of the photo books on film, on the desert, on surrealism, on camping. Some cool stuff over there. And I wanted to jump into a couple of the things I've been doing through the month of July and some of the outdoor camping and travel stuff I've been up to. I was going to run down some of that in this podcast today. I wanted to talk about a trip I did out toward Eastern Oregon, I think like last, or what was a week before last is when I was out in this area. And I was trying to get some good observations in for Comet NeoWise. I'm not sure if any of you guys got to check that out while it was in its prime viewing section there. I think that was why we had the new moon before it switched over to being a gibbous moon or a nearly full moon like it's been the last week or so. But I think, what was it, around the 15th through the 25th or so of July, there were some pretty good observations to be made of Comet NeoWise. I guess after reading about it a little bit, it's not considered a great comet, like HaleBopp was, or I think it was Hayataki in 1996. We haven't had a great comet in a long time. I've ever seen those when I was a kid though, and that was pretty cool. Watching HaleBopp come through for, it seemed like three months or something. You were just looking at that in the low corners of the Northwestern and Western skies. It was cruising across the skyline there. I remember that still from third, fourth grade when it was coming through. And I also remember the year before that, when straight up in the sky at night, for it was only a week or so. I was a kid, but I remember for that week, you could see a real bright two-tailed comet that was going through. I think, I can't remember how to pronounce it, I think it's Hayataki or, I think it's some Japanese name, I'm pretty sure. But that was a really cool one. That one I still remember really clearly. I was only like, I don't know, seven or something when that, when that comet came through, but I really appreciate getting to make some observations. So that one, when I was a kid, I missed Haley's comet though, back in what, '87, I think was the last one it came through. And I probably will be the few years or that, that decade or two of age range that doesn't get to see Haley's comet in their lifetime. So I think I was born in '88, of course. So if I make it past a hundred, maybe I'll see it. What is it? Maybe like 80 something years. So it's probably not going to come back around until, I think it's like the 2070s or 2080s that I'd have to make it to, for to see Haley's comet again. It'd be fun, but I don't know, maybe we'll see how future, how the, you know, the future is at that time. But it was really cool to get to see comet Neowise. It was just a little below what would be the legs and feet of Ursa Major, the Big Dipper or like the Big Bear as it would kind of be observed. But if you kind of look at the Dipper part that we're all mostly familiar with, if you kind of consider Ursa Major, the larger bear constellation that it's structured on, if you kind of look down below the Dipper is where I was able to make my observations, the comet Neowise. And over here in the elevation area that I'm at in Western Oregon, it's about 200 or 300 feet above sea level. And there's kind of a constant problem with haze and with light pollution in this area. And I think it has to do something with, well, like, I mean, of course, you know, the amount of population that's around, but also there's something about the air quality or about how the air kind of flows out around here that just doesn't ever seem to be as crisp or as dark as you can get up in the mountains. And really, it's just like a stunning difference when you're able to get out further and make some some more clear observations. You know, the level of magnitude of stars that you're able to reveal just in a dark night is so much more crisp and clear. It's just like a it's a total difference. So it was cool to I think I first was able to spot just a little fuzzy bit of a second magnitude version of comet Neowise while I was here in town. But I tried to make a special trip out toward eastern Oregon out into the desert just to do some camping stuff. But what I wanted to do at the same time was make some good observations and also try and get some good photographs of common Neowise as it was coming through during its period where you could you could make some some good sightings. But it was cool. So going out to eastern Oregon, as it got dark a little past 1030 or so, as you look to the northwest, you could really see the comet and its tail spread for a couple inches in the sky. And I was really surprised to notice how little of it you could really make out or see when you're in an area of almost any light pollution once you're back in town or once you're in a lower elevation area with some light pollution and haze around. It was really difficult to make out in the same way that I could out in the desert or out in the mountains. And so I thought that was pretty cool to get to get to see and get to check out over there. But yeah, it was a blast getting to do some stuff out in eastern Oregon. I went over to the John Day River area and I was checking out that area. There's a lot of public land out in that area, but there's also some a lot of private land, too. It's just kind of an interesting area, how it's sort of broken up. And it was cool to get to go out, go out to the I headed out to Madras and then I took off and headed over east of there until I ran into the John Day River. And then I was able to use this map that I have to go through and find some of the open off or just the open roads that are, you know, the smaller gravel roads that are set up to kind of traverse the backcountry out there. So I was able to find a few of those that were open and travel around on those for a while. Now, that was pretty cool. I was able to find some dispersed campsites and set up right along the John Day River, which is really cool. It's a beautiful area out there. It's kind of interesting. The John Day River flows through this sort of, I guess it would be, I don't know, it's kind of like Canyonland and it's also sort of these rolling grass hills that sort of make up the landscape of Northern and Northeastern Oregon. And I think, yeah, as soon as you kind of get a little bit for like a little bit north of Bend is when you get out of the Great Basin area and you start to get into another kind of landscape that seems to stretch up north of the Columbia River up into Washington. I figured that some of it's from like really old deposits from the river systems and the waterways that were up there and how there's old deposits and then an erosion that's happened from those rivers running through the area for such a long time. But really cool to see kind of the rolling hills and then some of the carved out canyons that go through the John Day River area up there. When I found the campsite I was at, I was pretty far away from everybody and I was really far away from any substantial town. I think I was near, I don't know, I don't even know what it is. There wasn't anything there when I drove through it. There was a bridge and a couple little ranch houses, you know, real ranches, right? Like just a little house, like a little two bedroom house and then 100 acres of cattle to deal with. So it seems like another life out there. I wonder how they're dealing with, you know, kind of the way of the world as things are this summer. But it was cool, yeah, getting out there. Went to, oh yeah, I kind of set up my campsite and stuff, had my truck going, and that was all pretty easy going. But then I waited till dark after 1030. Yeah, Comet NeoWiser is really visible up below the Big Dipper. That was pretty cool to get to see out there in eastern Oregon. Really bright, really clear. You could almost make out the second tail. I have my binoculars with me. I think there's some 10 by 42s and those worked really well to view it, to view the comet. Looked really crisp through the binoculars and it got really easy to spot most of the night. Even just to the naked eye, it was really easy to spot it. Just like, oh yeah, it's right there. There's a comet. It's just a big wisp in the sky. So it was really cool to get to view it. What I did is I set up my tripod and I have my camera with me. And so I set it up with a really wide angle and then I was trying to get some photographs of it as the comet was coming down to set on the landscape of the hillside as the hours went on into the night. So I think I stayed out until maybe one or two in the morning when the Big Dipper was sort of scooping down a little low onto the horizon. And then at that point, the place where the comet was dipped below the horizon and then was out of view for the rest of the evening. And I think even into the morning, I think by that time when I was photographing it, it wasn't visible any longer up in the morning sky. I think they said at first in early July, you could kind of view it around Capella if you were able to get out early enough, say three or four in the morning. But as the direction, as it was moving, it was kind of creeping up pretty quickly, day over day over day. It would kind of move a good chunk through the sky. And the direction that it was moving, it was moving to be more visible at the nighttime, which really offered more hours of good observation time. Which I thought was pretty cool to wait until it was really dark enough in the northwest view of the sky, probably about 1030 onward is when you were finally able to make out those kind of finer points of light in the sky in that region. So it was really cool to set up the tripod, set up the camera, set up some manual focus to get it kind of set sharp. You can't use autofocus when you're trying to make photographs of the night sky and the stars because it just kind of seeks back and forth. You have to set it to manual focus and then ring out your focus ring to infinity and then just back a little bit. You'll notice this every time if you do it. It's really frustrating, the dark, because you can't really always make it out in an easy way and edit your mistake quickly. But if you go all the way to infinity and then take pictures there of the night sky, you're going to notice that those points of light that are the stars sort of end up a little fuzzy. And it's because all the way to infinity for whatever reason just isn't quite in focus at infinity. So you have to go all the way out to infinity and then back it off just a little bit. And that'll nearly ensure that most of that part of the image is in focus the whole way. And it's difficult even if you do have an f-stop that's a little bit more tightened out, say like an f4 or f6 or something, you're still going to get a lot of that out of focus softness. If the focus ring isn't really dialed into the right spot. So I try to work on that a little bit. And yeah, dialed in my focus was able to set it up with a reasonable ISO to get some images of the night sky and pick up some of those finer points of light. And then I was able to take a series of photographs in a few different locations out there in the John Day River Valley, which I thought was really cool. It was pretty to be out there and it was a nice night, really warm in the river canyon. And really remote too, like I was mentioning, I think I was the only person out there for a few miles. I saw another group coming in on a, they had like a little mid-size SUV and they were going fishing out at a bend in the river a couple miles up from where I was. And so I took my truck down a little further and camped out just on the side of the river. It was cool, nice green river up to the kind of high desert tan rim rock that runs the area around there. So it was a cool evening, cool campsite area. It was a cool spot to check out Comet NeoWise too. So I tried to check it out up until, I don't know what, you know, 1.30 in the morning when I couldn't see it anymore. And then spent the night out there out in the John Day River area. And then the next morning got up and tried to check out some of the different roads and stuff that went around. You can check out more information at billynumanphoto.com.

I've got the Sony a7R going through its paces. It's been really cool using it for the last couple weeks. I've been trying to figure out its idiosyncrasies and there are a lot of them. There's a lot of them with these newer cameras and I can see definitely where from the a7R or from the first series of the a7s to the a7II and so on and so forth with the better and different accentuated camera models, they get better. They really do get better. There are some things with the first renditions of the electronic viewfinder and the system of how that takes photos, how it kind of interrupts when you're taking photos that don't quite seem to the level of professionalism that I'm really trying to hit for. I know that there's a lot of custom settings that I have to go into and sort of tweak how that a7R is going to be grabbing at photos and then how it's chimping. You guys heard of that before? Chimping. I don't know what it really has to do with but it's referring to when you take a photograph or you take a couple of photographs and then you look down at that screen on the bottom of your digital camera, the back plate of your digital camera. You look down and you see the photo and then you come up, you recompose and you shoot again and then come down and look at it. It's, I guess, I don't understand it completely. It just seems sort of like a modern approach to something that the technology allows you to do. I think it's totally acceptable but for whatever reason, it is sort of an interference in the creative or in the photography process sometimes. I know that there are many pros, all of those pros coming from a past world that's no longer here a film where it wasn't really acceptable to do half shutter press autofocus. You have to do autofocus from the back and then shutter is its own system. With that, there's all these kind of silly rules about how you can use focus, how you can use composition stuff, how you can set up your frame, when you can look at the screen or when you can review the images. I guess these film shooters, they thought it was uncouth to be able to review or see the photograph before the film was developed or before it was later on. Interesting and I see kind of psychologically there's this path that does seem to create better work or more intuitive photographs and those are better. They are more needed and I can see where some of these tricks might get you closer to that but the idea of just looking at the back of the screen that doesn't impede you so much and it doesn't really stop you. If you're a pro and you know what you're doing, you look at the screen, you're looking at the screen because you know why you're looking at the screen. It doesn't really seem to make sense that there's these sort of sideways rules about features you can and can't use that are put into your camera. But to speak about efficiency, the problem that I noticed about the a7R is that it will display the image to you for about a second and a half, two seconds and it will display it on the screen but it'll also display it in the electronic viewfinder for your eye. And you can shut this feature off but there's still a little bit of a hiccup around the time that you hit the shutter button. And the problem with this is if I'm framed up to take a photograph, let's say of a situation I remember back at OSU when I was shooting sports a lot, let's say there's a football game, I'm out in front of the action and I see that the beefs set up a play, they throw a pass, the guy gets it, he's right in the pocket on the third of the frame that I have and I have focus tracking on him. I want to take a series of shots with a high frame rate so I can get that whole run of action as he moves towards me. And so the issue that I'm having is in photography you're trying to select moments that look good. That's kind of the point. Aesthetically you want them to be choices that are appealing and that has to do a lot with gesture, a lot with movement, a lot with kind of positioning and framing and composition and sort of thoughtfully considering what does the person look like? How are all these things in the frame relating to each other and is it going to work when you press the shutter? And the difficulty is with these a7Rs or even with the Sony a6000 when I'm looking at it and I take this series of photographs, I'm almost blind that whole time. Whereas before in the past when I would have been working with an SLR, there's the shutter flap where you see black for just a moment but it comes back and it's optically correct immediately. It's optically correct to what you're going to be shooting but with the EVF there's just enough lag that in high action you seem to kind of miss where the gesture is. If stuff's moving around it seems like you almost have to kind of guess or assume that the next moment's going to happen and then try and take it but you can't see it. It's weird. It's like it shuts off the viewfinder right at the time that you need to be looking through it. And so in some ways like that it's a little bit complicated of am I framed up right? Am I looking at the thing right? When I take the picture it just shows me something else all of a sudden. And I know that they've solved a lot of these problems like if you look up the Sony a9 and some of the features that it has if you bring that into high speed shooting it's got this interesting system where instead of having the electronic viewfinder blink black or cut out completely have the processor move all of its attention to processing that image that it just captured and then bring back the electronic viewfinder momentarily later. What we see in the a9 is a system where there's the bracket. There's like a let's say like a red focus bracket that kind of goes around and you're shooting, you're shooting, you're shooting. But what you're seeing is instead of the electronic viewfinder blinking out black and then showing you a frame or just blinking out black and then coming back on what we see is just that bracket, that red bracket blink yellow or blink from black to yellow or black to red or something like that. And all that's indicating is that it is firing frames, but you're just still seeing it completely normally like you would view any action on a screen. And that's a really interesting process. I think it's like, I don't know, it's like 20 frames a second or something like that. It's almost video at that point when you're shooting raw frames. Are you kidding me? Raw frames on a Sony a9 at God knows what almost 50 megapixels that it's shooting at. And you can do 20 frames a second just looking at the thing and then seeing a little black bar blink yellow and that's signaling that you're capturing all that data.

[Music] Hello and thank you very much for listening to this episode of the Billy Newman Photo Podcast. I’m talking about a photograph that I made on the Oregon coast today doing Blue Hour probably. I think it was after the sun had set. It was sort of like the golden hour to talk about right as the hour as the sun is setting into sunset. The blue hour they also talk about as after the sun goes down there’s a lot of those blue kind of purple tones that show up in the atmosphere or you know in the clouds and in the water. There’s just a lot more of that tone as the sun drops and it’s a spectrum shift from what we see in the daylight to what we see at night time. But I think this was a photograph taken on the Oregon coast. I think your band-in if I’m right. And I really liked this photo. It just had it wasn’t really a big structure in the wave or a big curl or anything like that. That would be that’d be really striking but I really appreciate this photograph as kind of a close-up look at I just sort of the dreamy feeling of being on the coast. But it was definitely a photograph that I liked a lot and I like that line in the skies as it cuts across as you can kind of see at the top there there’s a bit of like a cloud break that goes down and that’s where we get a lot of that light from the sky in the background that kind of cuts underneath that big brim of cloud that goes over the top of the snet that causes a lot of bounce from the ground back up to the sky and then back down and you get a cooler or you get a defused sort of soft light in that effect which I think is really cool. You can see more of my work at billyneuminphoto.com. You can check out some of my photo books on Amazon. I think you can look up billyneumin under the authors section there and see some of the photo books on film, on the desert, on surrealism, on camping. Some cool stuff over there. Finished up that camping trip I was doing up the mountain creek there in the cascades a couple days ago. That was that like Wednesday. I think it was like maybe like Tuesday, Tuesday night to Wednesday morning. I think that was this super moon that was coming up that night if I remember right and that was pretty cool. It was cool to see the full moon up there and they always talk about the super moon which is kind of a I don’t know it’s a little bit of a misnomer but it’s cool to see too that I think they talk about happening every six months or so. Really it’s just kind of the oscillation of a bit of the eccentricities and the orbit of the moon that make it I think about 25,000 miles closer that it’s maximum and then maybe about 25,000 miles further away and it’s distant maximum but I think it’s really like a little bit of a sliver larger than it normally would be. If you notice though it’s a thing I learned way back and I think they they they show it in a scene in Apollo 13 but if you put your hand all the way out and you put your thumb up at all times you’re able to cover the entire full moon just with your thumbnail. It’s pretty wild but you got kind of always like visualize the moon is being this really big thing in the sky and really a lot of the time it’s it’s just as big as your thumbnail at arm’s reach which is kind of a trip but it’s kind of a it was cool to see the super moon that night it was really bright it was cool to kind of watch around and kind of look at how it was illuminating the forest and the trees and the mountains and stuff around me that was kind of nice to see cold that night though man I tell you so I have a 15 degree sleeping bag and that’s great 15 degrees is fine but and 15 degrees really is is more than adequate for most circumstances that I ended up in and during the summertime where it’s I don’t know it’s just not too big of a concern about how cold it gets but when it says 15 degrees it really means you’re going to be comfortable down to somewhere around 35 degrees but anywhere under 30 degrees is a pretty uncomfortable experience I think it means you’re going to stay alive that until it’s about 15 degrees so if it were me again buying something for maybe I don’t know a more heavy three season camping experience most of the time probably a lot of the nights out that I do even though I like to go at all times a year it seems like the majority of nights I go out are during the summer months or during like pretty fair weather seasons but if I were going to buy again which I’m going to try and get like a two or three sleeping bag system going if I was going to buy again I’d probably get a zero degree or maybe a negative 15 degree you know I could really use the warms because man what I noticed is even if it was just a little bit down to what would have been probably maybe I don’t know 29 or something like that it was you know it was a bit below freezing who knows how cold it really was it was only like an elevation of 2500 feet and it was a canyon I thought it was a clear night but I thought it would be relatively sheltered and yeah it was a lot of it was a lot of ice on my window when I woke up and it was a cold cold night to sit through too so yeah that 15 degree bag was just hold up out there but yeah if I was going to go again I think they have like a zero degree bag and then down below that they have like a negative 15 and like maybe like a negative 30 degree bag negative 30 sounds like a real warm like down back so I think mine’s a synthetic bag they talk about this sometimes where there’s like differences in the the thermal insulation qualities of the material that your sleeping bag is made out of and I think that the for it was it was an improvement actually you know above whatever cotton we were using for a while they were using wool stuff which was pretty smart that that works really well to be an insulating material and it doesn’t all right it works well with moisture and stuff and all the other things we know about marina wool is really cool everybody knows about that kind of stuff but we had like you know those really terrible big cotton sleeping bags way back those erupted and I don’t know if they were really even that insulating then they switched over to those synthetic materials which is probably all oil based is that sound right like a petroleum based like plastics product that was made out of synthetics I think that’s how they spin up a lot of those those I don’t know just those synthetic types of materials that they’re making these nylons out of so I think that was how all out of this this synthetic stuff had been made but really I think what they they talk about being the superior insulator is down and that’s what I’d hope to try and find as another zero degree or negative 15 degree sleeping bag would be a negative 15 degree down bag which is normally a bit more expensive you know when you’re looking around at the price points for these different sleeping bags if you’re trying to get into some colder weather camping stuff what you’re going to find is at those name brand or you know not even name brand this is a just a a bespoke manufacturer for a quality technical outdoors product is going to be very expensive and so that’s where you’re going to find I don’t know well you know three three 99 for a sleeping bag two 99 four 99 six 99 I’ve seen like a lot of pretty expensive prices out there I think Nimo makes some bags that are looking pretty cool that I’ve seen recommended a few times I’ve heard a big agnus they make tens most of the time though right they’re tank up and here aren’t they yeah stone glaciers one that I keep hearing kind of pop up here and there now for some sense marm it I think got some bags all right eyes so is you know a retailer of recreational equipment they’re closed right now though so I don’t even know if you could get an order from anyone like that but but they have some bags I think that’s where my synthetic bag was from that I’ve been using for the last I don’t know seven years or so so that’s it’s been fine but I also tested out the sleeping mat I got I got a new thermo rest sleeping mat and now big news it’s pretty exciting guys stay tuned it’s uh yeah it’s a larger sleeping mat than I have before but it’s a coded one with the I think it’s kind of like I don’t know it’s ballistic now but it’s that nylon coating over it so it’s not just the rubber mat at the base of it so you can throw it on the ground or on the semi abrasive materials that it would be outside and it’s working great I think it’s about one inch thick or so it’s about 25 inches wide at the shoulder point and it’s long enough to fit my old body which is probably a new one for me so yeah I got a solid camp mat I think for the last like three years I’m sleeping on one that goes flat about four hours after you start sleeping so that’s kind of nice to swap out I don’t know why I put up with it for so long really should do that sleep is like one of the best things you can get you know if you can figure out just like a couple easy things to take care of when you’re out camping or out in the woods and stuff it’s it’s probably sleep I mean that’s like the thing that takes you know and it’s frustrating too because when like even the last one I’m talking about didn’t sleep very well way too cold part of it you know enough shelter enough stuff that was kind of comfortable but really as it is yeah it’s like oh I need to I need to figure out a couple other extra things to kind of throw in there but yeah there’s just a couple things you can figure out when you’re going camping like how to stay warm or how to be comfortable when you do go or like when you are sleeping it’s like one of the most important and most I don’t know effective things you can do to kind of improve the way that a trip goes because like yeah I can be like I can be brutal the next day if you don’t get any sleep the night before which is probably the first half dozen camping trips of the year you know this first half dozen or so overnight to the year I’m just always kind of groggy and like oh why don’t I have to get up right now which is sort of how it was Wednesday morning when I woke up yeah I popped up and I think it was probably about five a.m. or so that I that I got up I think it was just about first light the sun had come up yeah but there’s a little bit of light up in the sky and the stars were kind of washed out by the blue sky so I hopped up and the fire was out I think from the night before like I was mentioning how those the sticks had worn out and the colds had started burning down even I think by the time I was near the end of my last podcast so I hopped out and the the back windows were clear there wasn’t any frost on it but the front window the windshield was ice over pretty hard really I mean it looked like it was you know like coated in water and then froze over solid so it wasn’t even just kind of like a fluffy bit of white frost or something that had built up on it through fog it just looked like a hard coating of just a nice sheet over the windshield so that no great I don’t have an ice scraper or something with me I’m thinking it’s me you know who needs an ice scraper I’m taking a sip of coffee so yeah I don’t know I grabbed a box I think it was a piece of cardboard out of the back that I could kind of flex around a bit through that over the windshield tried to run the truck for a bit try to warm it up it took a while too but yeah scraped off some ice scraped off a whole big enough to kind of get started on the drive and then prepped to take off but yeah I took some photos and stuff around the campsite for a bit first in the morning nice draw on the valley like I was talking about that goes up to that that ridge point that you can kind of see off in the distance and I think I could see like the the fire from the smoke or the smoke from the fire of the neighboring campers over there I don’t know if I’d mentioned it well yeah I definitely didn’t last one how they were they’re kind of doing brotes out in the on the road around sunset I think I got a little clip of it on video but yeah it’s like four or five of them and these kind of beater late 90s four by four trucks doing spins out in the dirt roads so looks fun I don’t know but they were I think getting the fire going and stuff in the morning too or whatever they had going from the night before if you can see a plume of it coming up from that area they would have been camping in over by the the creek bed downhill and yeah it was cool it took some photos and stuff that morning walked around kind of cleaned up the camp a little bit put the fire stuff out and jumped in the truck had that little hole in the ice to see through and then yeah popped on a podcast and cruised down the road and so what I was trying to do was it was take off down to a couple other spots along the creek while it was still morning and then head down ultimately to the area where the lake started to build up and so kind of how it works is like it kind of flows down the creek and then there’s a dam at a point ultimately and then back right behind the dam is a reservoir where that creek is kind of built up and I guess now is yeah a body of water out there so drove down a ways and took some photographs of the creek and the morning light and some of the water and stuff coming through I really like that kind of affected the the sort of early spring kind of fresh snow melt mountain creek stuff that just sort of looks really crisp and forested and natural and then I came down a ways further to a bridge that kind of cuts across the span of the creek as it starts to sort of widen out into the reservoir area and it looks like a you know a big stretch of calm water out on the edge of the the bridge where I think two different groups that were doing some fishing in the morning and yeah it seems like people are still out it was a busy area up there is still still definitely pretty fully populated set of people you know even during this lockdown period there’s a bunch of people out there hanging out in fishing I think it was two different different groups it too maybe they were they were all kind of connected but yeah they were they were out there with a couple lines over the bridge and they were picking up a couple things and things so I saw a lady that was pulling up in a little a little blue kayak to the ramp on the first day and on her what is that thing you know when you you run it through the gilling at you got the fish and stuff anyway just she pulled up with like got it is like four or five trout or something on her on her in her kayak I don’t know that’s where I’ll leave it I guess but she pulled up with four or five trout so I figured these guys these guys were doing a little bit of trout fish out there which sounds fun it’s a nice clear crisp morning stuff like I was saying so yeah it sounds like it’d be nice to be out there for a couple hours doing sufficient and yeah it looked like they were they were up to it they were getting a couple things it’s cool to a son osprey that they took off I think over the lake area just at that time and would kind of like pull up at certain spots over the water kind of back flap to hold in the same spot and look under water and see if there was something and then I don’t know didn’t see enough or didn’t see a prime opportunity and then we’re gonna swoop off and then take off to a different section of the lake and do it again so watch that about three or four times try to take a couple pictures of the area which you’re nice too I like the photographs that I got that morning it’s got to got a nice nice look to it really you know a lot of the time the photographs really look a lot better when you just select the right time of day to be somewhere which you know is obvious but just the types of colors and the types of saturation and dynamics that you get in the the look of a pretty simple you know set of trees and water it just comes off a lot better when it’s it’s just the right type of light it’s really amazing to to kind of see what differences it makes when it’s a cloud a day or a sunny day or a morning or an evening or midday really it seems like the dynamics of the light change so much that you can get like a totally different look in the photo which is always kind of interesting to pay attention to and sort of see how that how that goes what changes about it and sort of how that affects the photographs that you’re making I mean you can have you know some cool at any time of day but it’s kind of cool to figure out how it works for you or how it works or what I’m trying to do is how how to figure out how how it works for my photographs and what I’m trying to do which is nice I don’t know it was cool going out there and climbing around the creeks and stuff in the morning and taking a couple photos and water and osprey and going over to the lake area that’s trying to work on similar stuff to what I’ve done before but kind of that mirrored look of the really calm water as it spreads across the lake in the morning and then the reflection of the the bright blue kind of pre-sunlit sky or how is it you know like before the sun is actually up over the horizon there’s not a lot of intensity so it’s just kind of a softer blue glow in a lot of ways and then there’s still enough illumination that you can see the greens and the trees and sort of the soft calm water in the morning before it gets kind of agitated through the rest of the day so nice kind of peaceful looks to the the photos and sort of the natural stuff that I like to go kind of capture you know really ultimately though there’s some nice stuff up there and I was really like happy to kind of photograph some of the some of what I was looking for but I was also also frustrated in the area too I think there was a there’s is a little more choked off than what I normally like like there wasn’t as many opportunities as I had hoped for I had to try and you know utilize the ones that I found but there wasn’t as many opportunities as I had hoped for for kind of an opened up wide scene that you could set up a landscape photo and there wasn’t a lot of elements to really work with it was just sort of a you know that’s like some rolling hills off to a green hill so sometimes I’m trying to find some stuff that’s a little bit more dynamic and it’s look than that but it’s fun though even as it is anyway though I’m trying to I think maybe like I was mentioned last one I got stuck and turned around but the snow and I didn’t want to deal with any of that right now but in the next weeks and stuff I want to get up to Mount Jefferson or Mount Washington or a couple of these other wilderness areas that they have a few kind of visual landmarks that

patreon that’s patreon.com for slash billy newmanphoto I wanted to talk today about some stuff that I’ve been doing this last week for the last few weeks I’ve been talking about some outdoor stuff and some things kind of related to the lockdown pandemic stuff but I kind of changed what I was talking about a little bit for this podcast but I wanted to get into was some of the training stuff I’ve been looking into around logic pro 10.5 that has just come out recently and I thought it’d be kind of kind of cool to go over a little bit of an overview of some of the new features and stuff that are there and some of the stuff that you can do with a digital audio workstation and why why I’d bother talking about it but I think it was about about a year ago or so I was talking about setting up the studio in the house that I’m not here and how I was getting a PC computer ready to go is an older one is I think like something from some test up I had around from from 2010 or 11 or so yeah yeah about that time and I remember getting that computer setup with a I think it was yeah I had like windows 10 on it and then I was using I think the same audio interface usb out into the computer and then I downloaded I downloaded sonar the new version of sonar that you can get for free I think it had been owned by what was k-quack sonar and then I think Gibson had bought out k-quack and so it became Gibson sonar and then I think Gibson decided that wasn’t going to be part of their business anymore so I think they just kind of shut it down essentially but then sold that off to band lab and band lab is a I think a one or it’s another internet company they have kind of a simplified digital audio workstation app that you can use to kind of create a demo or something like that but what they had done is they they’d gone through I guess and had purchased probably for a relatively inexpensive price or I don’t know I assume since they’re just they’re just keeping it and kind of hardly maintaining it or you know doing a bit to maintain it but they took the the sonar platinum program the full digital audio workstation multi-tracking tool and they made it free for people to use and for people to get but I think it’s only a Windows only program so you got to have Windows 10 to run it so I did that yeah and and sonar was a program that I’d work with before for doing some some studio multi-tracking stuff I think years ago probably around like 2012-2013 when I was when I was working with some friends to set up some studio equipment stuff was cool we had like a big sound craft ghost that was laid out and then we had a bunch of a bunch of channels kind of running into that from from the microphones they were using to track this band and then that all went into a pretty old computer was amazing what it could do you know for just a you know it’s probably like a 2 gigabyte of RAM you know smaller hard drive 2004 or 5 6 era PC computer no I probably wouldn’t need that much right there’s something about that time but that’s what we used yeah that’s like all we had all we had with us we had a I think it was like a pre-sowness audio interface and then we got like like an eight-channel audio interface that was really cool you know we had like eight eight digital audio channels coming into the interface which means we could track eight live channels into sonar at a time and it didn’t even hit up you know even on that old machine and so it was interesting how that architecture worked to do some editing stuff but so sonar is what I had been using before for some stuff really audition Adobe edition is what I’d use most for some of this kind of the more simple radio broadcast style stuff and that’s what I had learned to use when I was at when I was at a radio station doing an internship years and years ago back in 2008 right summer 2008 and did that and they used the Adobe edition version 1.5 to do all their radio production edits and yeah I remember going in taking calls with the production guy I don’t know somebody calling into do like a I think they would do like a water level report it was really interesting radio that station you know you could figure but they would have like this I don’t know something you know it’s it’s 1245 and here’s your local water level report for July 28th or something and then it would be some lady that would call in from a department that would measure the stuff and she would give her water report and the production guy you’d record it and then produce that and then it’d be prepped to go out on air later you know it was like a spot that a DJ would trigger upstairs and so we’d kind of walk through using audition to do those steps and so learning that as a program is probably the first one that I’d done which a product probably goes back to high school or before that when I was doing editing stuff but but sonar back to sonar was some of the stuff that I’d used probably give it more for the for the music you know like trying to like track a band or do like multi-tracking projects but so yeah that’s what I’d used a bit that’s why I thrown on this windows 10 PC to do some audio production stuff for this podcast workflow that I was trying to get into and it’s cool it works really well but but I stepped using that computer a while ago I think the the windows 10 computer that I’m talking about had a power supply go bad which could be replaced pretty easily and and is on a to-do list of mine but since then I’ve really just been relying on kind of like I had mentioned just recording recording onto the device and then using Adobe addition to do the post production work on my MacBook which is I don’t know it’s just it’s just a more it’s just a better workflow and stuff for the most part so I’m kind of sticking with that but recently to get to the point as you are all excited logic pro 10.5 has come out now logic as yet to be mentioned in this podcast logic pro is the program that was produced by Apple as the professional digital audio work station and so there’s garage band which probably a lot of people have some experience with and garage band is sort of the trimmed down simplified home user version of a program like like logic pro and they’ve done that intentionally I think it’s the same team that generates the two programs and if you if you look at them or you look at their interfaces and you look at the types of access you have to things you really do see a familiar similarity to it which is cool so if you’ve used something like garage band in the past for home projects you won’t really have as big of a difficulty moving into a more professional digital audio workstation environment like logic pro 10 so I think it was logic pro 10 just you know 10 zero it came out when I don’t probably like 2013 or so I think that was that was sold for 200 bucks so it was like a purchase price of 199 and then since then you get the point updates for free or you know as included with your original purchase so just recently I think there had been like 10.4 before this and then now they’ve moved on to 10.5 and 10.5 I think it’s probably the biggest as noted by you know playing in new sources as noted as one of the most significant feature updates that logic has had probably in years and years I mean I think this is the first end of the concert removed and updated some of those legacy items that have been in there since 2003 or four or five you know it was just some of these legacy products that were that were originally put in there is including their interfaces too it looks like a 2002 interface for for you know like there’s these synthesizer interfaces where these these weird knobs that you have to these weird just rotating features of the interface it looks like it looks ridiculous I don’t know there were any other way to explain it but it’s it’s pretty wild for some of the some of the stuff that’s just remained in computer computer systems for a long time but for 10.5 they try to go through and update a lot of that stuff and it’s really interesting there’s a lot of cool new features in logic 10.5 so logic is real similar to sonar which is I guess kind of why I mentioned it and at least from my experience as similar you guys would probably think it’s similar to I don’t know what people that are listening probably actually have some well no one’s listening what do we say if someone were to bother to try and find some information out about logic and they ended up listening to this podcast they probably have had some information about it or they would be coming from from an experience with avid’s pro tools and pro tools is like the industry standard for multitracking DAW software and I’ve never used it I’ve never opened pro tools I’ve never seen pro tools you know in in its process at all I don’t know I’ve got I’ve looked at a couple videos or something but yeah I have no I have no experience working in pro tools and I don’t know I’m not a fan of avid’s software overall you know for pro tools or for or for the avid system of a video editing stuff either I’m just I’m not I’m not really that interested in the kind of stuff that they put together and it really for price and stuff too it just seems kind of kind of over done a little bit so I’m pretty happy with with some of the other the other more available tools that are in the consumer computer market I mean I think it’s like 800 bucks or something still to get to get avid’s pro tools and I think that in the past it was you know insanely more than that even well you know kind of proprietary back in the past it was more difficult now I think M audio is a partner with pro tools and so in the past if you have pro tools you have a lot of proprietary pro tools audio interfaces that you had to use if you wanted to set up your studio to work seamlessly with the pro tools software now I think they’ve made a deal with M audio which is sort of like a less expensive audio interface manufacturer they’ve had like interfaces and microphones and you know they’ve got like an array of I think they’ve got like some studio monitors they’ve got some interfaces they’ve got like keyboards is a big one that they’ve got I’ve got a keyboard over here from M audio and what is it yeah M audio less expensive they make pro tools interfaces which is cool now so that they’ve got a partnership with pro tools and I think that they’ve been trying to make that more accessible to musicians probably because it’s become a more competitive market with well really with like logic logic pro I think I think the industry standard set is I don’t know it always seems like more secure than it should be you know that doesn’t it doesn’t seem like an absolute the pro tools should be the the digital audio workstation of of engineers across the world but for whatever reason it’s just kind of taken over and and as those people you know are still still in those positions I think that’s that’s just with tat and audio recording school it’s like a standard even though there’s a lot of other good other good services and choices out there I think I’ve seen soar and logic taught a lot too so I don’t know they’re definitely competitive and and as I’ve been hearing more there’s there’s I don’t know there’s produced you know music producers that are coming out saying oh yeah I do a lot of a lot of my work in in logic and then there’s you know there’s a whole class of music producers that are logic based producers are stone our based producers are and all right it seems to kind of rotate around every couple years for for who’s doing water you know who wants to look cool people that use pro tools one of the cool probably a lot of time so back to back to old logic pro 10.5 here’s the good stuff so thanks a lot for checking out this episode of the Billy Newman photo podcast hope you guys check out some stuff on billyneuminfoadow.com a few new things up there some stuff on the homepage some good links to other other outbound sources some links to books some links to some podcasts links to some blog posts all pretty cool yeah check

The Gorge Grab your sniper rifles, trip-mines and laser guided minigun turrets, friends... because it's time for a good old fashioned love story! Their eyes meet across a crowded gorge that may be the portal to hell, and from that moment Miles Teller and Anya Taylor Joy are falling, falling deep... into The Gorge. But, are you joining them in the fall into love or something worse?  Or are you sitting on the rim, looking down and taking pot-shots? Our review team is full this week with Peta and Jill on both sides of Apple TV+'s gorge, Dion as the evil corporate overseer, and in tonights performance the portal to hell will be played by Quinny.

King of Bossa, Romero Lubambo, goes over some tips to expand your guitar range.================================================================[Music]Hello, Romero Lubambo here for Two Minute Jazz.I would like to talk to you about playing the scale in the whole neck of the guitar. A lot of times we think about one position to play a scale. When I asked sometimes some student to play, "Oh can you play a C major scale?" which should be easy, they play-- [fast, one-octave scale] --or sometimes with two octaves.--[fast, two-octave scale] --But I think scales should be thought as the whole thing on the neck. So the C major scale should start here:-- [much longer, multi-octave C Major scale] --You have to have this vision that all the notes of C major scale, where they are. For example, if you are playing a solo, we have to know what's here [music] or here [music] or here [music].So one thing that I did and I do when I have some time, is to playnotes just randomly off of any scale. I'm talking about C major but it should be done for every scale.So for example [random C major notes], I know those notes belong to C major scale and you should know because when you're doing a solo, improvisation, we have to know which notes belong to the scale that you want to play.Not necessarily on top of C major, maybe you play the scale, D minor chord for example. You still need to know --[random D minor notes]-- So practice this as weird as possible in terms of --[weird D minor notes]-- The most weird you can do, the better because your brain is going to get used to those jumps, you know, and you get used to see those notes on the neck of the guitar, it's gonna help you a lot. Do that for every scale. Thank you very much.

Prof. Vera Menezes Interview Transcripts WorldCALL website: http://www.j-let.org/~wcf/modules/tinyd0/ Dr. Menezes’s website http://www.veramenezes.com/ Podcast website http://worldcall3@podomatic.com This is the official podcast series for the WorldCALL 3 Conference to be held in Fukuoka Japan from August 5th to 8th in 2008. This podcast features an interview with Professor Vera Menezes, one of the keynote speakers at the conference this summer. [Music] Hello everyone and welcome to the podcast. I’m Marcel Van Amelsvoort, a member of LET in Japan, the group hosting WorldCALL this time and this podcast is part of a series of interviews with conference organizers and presenters. We are now less than five months away from the start of the conference and most things are in place. Information on the keynote speakers and the workshops is available on the WorldCALL website and registration is well underway. Discount Earlybird registration is also still available but will be only until the end of April. In the podcast this time, we’ll hear from Dr. Vera Menezes, one of the four keynote speakers at the conference this summer. The title of her address is CALL: A strange attractor in language education in South America. One of the really interesting aspects of a conference like WorldCALL is the opportunity it provides to meet people from other regions of the world and hear what they are doing, and today’s podcast guest is the keynote speaker who will be making the longest journey to get to Japan, since she is based in Brazil. In the outline for her talk, she mentions that she is planning to talk about chaos theory and CALL and about CALL in Brazil and South America. In order to get to know her and her subject matter a little better, I sent her some questions. Marcel: Could you tell us a little about yourself and your areas of interest? Dr. Menezes: Well, I live in Brazil, a former Portuguese colony. By the way, Spanish is the main language in our continent and Brazil is the only country in South America where Portuguese is spoken. I work at Federal University of Minas Gerais, the main university in the southeastern state of Minas Gerais (Minas Gerais means “General Mines” in Portuguese). My state is famous because of its historical towns on the mountains. It has the largest concentration of historic towns in our country. Three of them are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. These 18th century towns have the best examples of baroque art and architecture produced in Brazil. Well, let me talk a little bit about myself. I majored in English in 1971. In my masters, in 1988, I worked with the use of advertisements in EFL teaching. In my Ph.D, in 1991, I carried out a semiotic investigation on the invasion of English words in the Brazilian Culture. I have been working with computer assisted language learning since 1997. I have been teaching reading and writing through the Internet and also some topics aiming at language teacher education. Concerning research, I am particularly interested in language acquisition and learning and interaction in virtual environments. At present, I feel myself divided into two passions: computer assisted language learning and language learning histories. Narrative research is a fascinating methodology and in order to conciliate my diverse interests, I decided to work with multimedia narratives. My students write their language learning histories and add hyperlinks, images, sounds, and videos. A good corpus of those multimedia narratives can be found in my website. Marcel: The topic of your keynote address seems very interesting. Without giving too much away, could you let us know briefly what you plan to talk about, and could you provide a little background for those listeners who may not be so familiar with chaos theory? Dr. Menezes: Chaos theory deals with nonlinear dynamical systems which are apparently disordered. I say, apparently, because there is an underlying order in this apparently lack of order, but it is impossible to make accurate predictions. The dynamics of chaotic systems are highly sensitive to initial conditions. Just a small change in the initial conditions can drastically change the long-term behavior of a system. I think chaos theory offers good metaphors for us to understand how technology has always worked as perturbations in the initial conditions of the educational systems. And chaos should not seen be as a negative feature in education, but as a positive dynamical instability which makes the systems evolve. Think, for instance, of the impact of the book in schools. It is now part of any school routine, but it was a big issue when it was first introduced into the classroom. The book changed teaching and it is now an inseparable element of the education dynamics. The educational system is an open system and its dynamicity, in spite of the expected resistances, is influenced by the dynamics of technological development but, it also influences the route of the technology industry. I think the educational system in the whole world is suffering the turbulence of the new technologies, but in South America, perhaps, the rhythm of the technological integration in schools is still slow due to our serious unbalances in regional development, income distribution and in educational quality. We must face the digital divide and the gap between rich and poor learners I intend to discuss a little bit about the positive dynamical instability, that is chaos, which new technologies brought to language learning language in South America. Marcel: I think many listeners will be interested in hearing about the state of English and other language education in South America. Could you talk a little about some of the challenges there and how you have tried to meet those challenges? Dr. Menezes: English is the main foreign language studied in South America. In Brazil, Spanish teaching is increasing due to legal requirements and the same is happening with Portuguese in other countries, such as Argentina, for example. Concerning CALL, I guess that we face the same challenges found all over the world: limited technology and big classes, limited connections and limited hardware, lack of technical support, and the price of software. Although free software, such as Linux, is also found in schools, we still have to pay a lot of money to Bill Gates. I have been testing different designs to deal with some of the challenges we face in our context. My PhD students and I have been investigating new possibilities to overcome the constraints we are supposed to face in our context. One of these attempts dealt with online autonomous groups. Braga (2007), under my supervision, found out that we can successfully teach big classes if we divide them into small groups and give them autonomy to do their tasks according to their limitations of time and technology. By doing so, we promoted distribution of control and the learning communities could make decisions which enabled them to overcome possible difficulties in accessing the internet. Marcel: You also had an interesting quotation in one of the articles you listed in your profile (No one educates anyone else, no one educates themselves, men educate one another, mediated by the world.—Paulo Freire). Could you talk a little about this as well? Dr. Menezes: Paulo Freire was a Brazilian educator who influenced many teachers around the world. He was against traditional education which he used to describe with the banking metaphor. In his famous book Pedagogy of the Oppressed, he says the teacher as narrator leads the students to memorize mechanically the narrated content. This “banking education” turns students into “containers,” into “receptacles” to be “filled” by the teacher. The more completely she fills the receptacles, the better a teacher she is and education thus becomes an act of depositing, in which the students are the depositories and the teacher is the depositor. Freire adds that knowledge emerges only through a continuing and hopeful inquiry, in the world, with the world, and with each other. That is what our group in Brazil has been trying to do. We believe that in asynchronous on-line courses, supported by socio-cultural methodologies, we can create an environment in which we educate each other, mediated by the computer. When I say we, I include myself, because I also have been learning with my students. I understand that the role of teachers in this millennium is to facilitate interaction and collaboration among students and allow their creativity to arouse. As Freire’s follower, I believe in education as the practice of freedom and not as an instrument of oppression. I want CALL to help my students to reflect, act and transform the world. Marcel: And that brings us to the end of this podcast. I would like to thank Professor Menezes for giving her time to make this podcast possible.
