This past Tuesday, May 4th, we sponsored two lectures at B&H in New York City by Pentax Photographer, Kerrick James. The title of his lecture was "Natural Inspiration: Outdoor Photography with Kerrick James".
For those of you that were not able to attend, here's the description we used on Facebook to promote Kerrick's lecture:
"Join Kerrick for an inspirational and educational lecture on outdoor photography and the new PENTAX K-7. In this session, Kerrick James will expound on the inspiration for his work and guide users through the features that help make the PENTAX K-7 a perfect outdoor shooting companion. Few photographers know the K-7 as well as Kerrick James. He chooses the K-7 for its ergonomic design, weather sealing, image quality and compatibility with every PENTAX lens ever made. Kerrick will guide attendees through the camera and explains how he puts it to the test nearly every day on his adventure travel shoots and workshops. As an added bonus, Kerrick will explain how the small, but mighty, PENTAX Optio W90 serves as an ideal back-up camera even in the most tortuous, outdoor elements, because it can go anywhere."
If you're interested in learning more about Kerrick's work, it turns out that Outdoor Photographer recently posted on-line a new article with text and photography by Kerrick. I believe this article will also appear in the June issue of Outdoor Photographer, but you can get a sneak peak by checking out The Grand Canyon From Within here.
(Note: I shot the photo of Kerrick in available light at ISO 1600, F/4.0, 1/20sec with the K-x and the FA 31mm Limited lens. I converted the RAW file into a jpeg using CS4 and other than reducing my exposure slightly, I did no other post-processing. Click on the thumbnail to see a larger image file.)
