I'll be teaching at the 2008 Book Passage Travel Photographer's/Writer's Conference Aug. 14-17. I'll be teaching: An intro to Travel Photography, Developing a Website: A Tool for Self Promotion, Digital Photography Techniques, Travel Photography: Field Techniques, Making Photography Your Day Job, Travel Photography: Getting Into Print and other topics. From the Book Passage website: "The Book Passage Travel Writers & Photographers Conference has an extraordinary reputation among publishers, editors, and writers. Alumni have published books, articles, and photos -- many as the direct result of lessons learned and contacts made at the conference. There is no finer travel writing conference anywhere in the world. The Conference offers an array of workshops, panels, and evening activities. There are many hours of informal interaction between faculty and students during lunch and in discussions that often last late into the evening." ]]> tag:jeffpflueger.com,2008:/mt/news//6.109 2008-08-07T21:04:06Z 2008-08-07T21:12:40Z

I was recently in Alaska doing aerial photography of the Alaska Range to supply Denali National Park with a larger image library as a resource for climbers and rescuers. This photo is of the West Buttress Route on Denali taken from 24,000 feet in a Cessna 206. I had O2 for the flight, but even with o2, heading to 24K unacclimatized is a wild experience; I don't remember much from this flight! Thanks to the best photography shop in the Bay Area, Keeble and Schuchat, for their support of the project. It was their Canon 1ds Mark III and 24-105 lens that made this photo - one of my favorites from the shoot. ]]> tag:jeffpflueger.com,2008:/mt/news//6.103 2008-05-16T23:21:59Z 2008-05-16T23:30:27Z

I have a Tasmania photo gallery up along with many of the other Adobe Photoshop Adventure crew. Additionally, Digital Railroad Marketplace is featuring the photographers from the adventure on their blog, as well as hosting our images from Tasmania. You can also win a free trip to Tasmania, no strings attached! There aren't too many people signed up at this point, so the chances are about as good as they get for a sweepstakes like this. ]]> tag:jeffpflueger.com,2008:/mt/news//6.101 2008-04-18T20:27:30Z 2008-04-23T20:30:03Z

Photographer Gerald Bybee and I pulled off organizing a very informative session last night in San Francisco. I work on the board with the local chapter of the American Society of Media Photographers. The ASMP seems a bit behind the times when it comes to the massive changes associated with the explosion on the web that are dramatically altering the photo industry and indeed the very fabric of our culture! So it was exciting to get the general counsel of ASMP and the VP of Creative Commons, along with some other well known lawyers to discuss the new world of Copyright 2.0 in a Hyper Digital Age.]]> Here is a summary of the event Here are some provacative email announcements that we designed for the event Here is VP of Creative Commons Mike Linksvayer's excellent 5 minute intro ]]> tag:jeffpflueger.com,2008:/mt/news//6.100 2008-04-05T20:16:41Z 2008-04-22T20:26:37Z

I am shooting in Tasmania as part of a project spearheaded by photographer, writer and technologist Mikkel Aaland. The project is described on the O'Reilly website as "a group of internationally renowned photographers will travel to the end of the world, literally, to the remote island of Tasmania. Their mission is to road test specialized digital photography software designed by Adobe while capturing images from one of the world's most mysterious and varied geographic locations" ]]> Read about the project here and keep to date with our daily blogging and image uploads In addition to shooting, I'll be the on-the-ground web producer - helping to aggregate and edit all those images we're capturing and publish them broadly across the web. The wheels are spinning for me to help to come up with the most efficient way that we can get our images out far and wide on the web and still have plenty of time to road test Adobe's software and to shoot. The plan, at this point (we all know about plans!), hinges on us using Digital Railroad to collectively manage our online assets. We'll do our daily editing there, and then code I wrote takes the most recent images uploaded to Digital Railroad and presents thumbnails or enlargements however I want to show them with a little code snippit that can be pasted into blogs and websites very easily. If you get a chance, take a peek at the website - and enter for a free trip to Tasmania]]> tag:jeffpflueger.com,2008:/mt/news//6.97 2008-01-27T22:37:43Z 2008-03-27T22:43:12Z

Lightroom Mastery Wednesday, January 23 Monday, February 4 6-10 pm In my opinion, with Adobe's Lightroom, I feel that photographers finally have a sophisticated and time-saving software tool that matches the challenges, new demands and opportunities of digital photography. Lightroom is 95% of what I use these days for post production and organization of a shoot. In this workshop, participants will learn how to use Lightroom efficiently and effectively for the post production RAW workflow from import images from a camera, organization, captioning and keywording in the Library module, to advanced color correction, spot removal, sharpening and more in the Develop module to publishing webpages in the Web module. ]]> tag:jeffpflueger.com,2007:/mt/news//6.89 2007-09-28T22:21:39Z 2007-09-29T00:01:59Z

Al Jazeera English runs a couple of stories that we did in Damascus.]]>
One story was based on an interview we conducted with Badie Izzat, head of the defense team representing those accused of gassing the Kurds in Halabja during the Anfal campaign in 1986. As a defense lawyer, Izzat was arrested by the Iraqi court because the judge did not like the things that Izzat said both inside and outside court. The resulting situation was so dangerous, and such an embarrassment to the integrity of the court itself, that the Americans gave Izzat safe passage out of Iraq so that he wouldn't be killed. He is now essentially in exile in Syria. Read the story about Badie Izzat
A story about Iraqi doctors that have had to flee their country because of death threats. They are now in Damascus, doing what they can to get by, and continuing their practice by treating other refugees.

Route 89 doles out a greatest-hits sampling of iconic US landscapes. "It takes you to some of the national parks' most spectacular spots, but our favorite sites were discovered in between," says writer Sundeen (above, left), who drove the 1,700-mile byway with photographer Pflueger (above, right) for our feature. "Stanton was the moment for me," Pflueger says, of an odd little Arizona encampment they came across. "To meet people reinhabiting a ghost town and playing out their gold-mining dreams in the desert was like seeing the Old West come alive."]]>
