Photo(s) of the Week

We’ve decided to switch it up a bit here on Mondays. Instead of just “reposting” the photos of the day from the photographers on the site, I’m going to flex a little bit of my “editorial” muscle and choose my favorites from the past week. I hope you enjoy my selections!

Photoshop Blur Frame

Recently I have been going through my archives trying to get them organized in an effort  to create a portfolio. The portfolio could be going better but while looking through all of the old photos I came across alot of them that I had made frames for in photoshop. The frame below is one I used to really like and it only takes 6 steps to make it happen.

Monday’s Photo(s) of the Day

Starting today, we’ll be highlighting a selection of photos each Monday based on “Photo of the Day” & “Project 365″ themes. For those of you readers who are new to the concept, “Photo of the Day” is a really simple idea, popular among online photography communities, that can be expanded or scaled down depending on its reach but in the end, it comes down to a photographer, editor and/or community selecting a photo that represents either headline news, an aesthetic scene or just a “great photo”, plainly & completely subjective in nature.

This concept is not completely foreign to Cape Photos as resident photographers Don Parkinson, Lenka Mazancova & Ben Allsup have been publishing “Daily” images for a bit of time now. I’ve even joined the fray, albeit briefly.

So without further delay, here are Monday, August 16th’s, Photo(s) of the Day.

Welcome to the new Capephotos.net

Thanks for visiting the new capephotos.net. This site originated as a photo site many years ago the original site can be seen at original.capephotos.net . I built that site from scratch which was a great learning experience but because I had to maintain it and fix all the bugs it was not that much fun to use. So after a lot of thought we have decided to use wordpress as the engine behind the new capephotos. This site is still under development but in the coming weeks you will see photo blogs, tutorial and essays from our select group of photographers ranging from street photography and photojournalism to nature and weddings.

We also have a daily photoblog section which has already launched and can be found at daily.capephotos.net if you are up for the challenge of posting at least one photo every day let us know and we will hook you up with your very own daily blog.
