Linking back to your photography website is fine. However you may not promote your commercial web site or forum or photo related product on PuristSPro.com Photography Forum. Websites selling products or camera equipment as a "hobby" are considered commercial websites.
A member may promote themselves as a photographer, such as sites showing your own (non-commercial) photography, or sharing events in your photographic life such as shows or publication. Links to articles of interest to forum members are fine, keeping in mind the intent and seminal nature of PuristSPro.com.

I like this quote from Tom Wood (an Irish photographer from County Mayo) "I'm not trying to document anything, I am asking a question. It is more about deciphering and transforming. You don't call a poet, a documentary poet, because they write about life, so why a photographer?"
Why we take photos, how we do it, and what we take photos of... There has never been a more interesting time for photography...
Kind regards,
Casey Henderson

Gotta pull the camera from the dry box and get out!

I have to practice more and more again, as long as the time permits. I am so much looking forward to the pics here and your gentle help to improve the skill! Ah, nice to have you here in Tokyo :-) Best, Ken Nikon D700, 28-300 f3.5-5.6 VR, at 34mm f3.8, cr...
Yes, looking forward to more of you photos...

Gentle help... well, I will see what's possible, not that you need it ;-) Critiquing is always a tricky adventure.. The cherry blossoms were great this year, much stronger than the last couple of years. Casey
This is just perfect

The art of photography . . .
By: Dr No : April 24th, 2014-09:09
. . . is beyond me, Casey - I couldn't draw a stick figure to save my life! Didn't even own a camera until getting into watches; most of my pics are of watches. Found this one in files . . . . . . of the view from Glashütte Original's executive offices. N...
I enjoy my quiet time walking with a camera...

at the core, I am a landscape photographer... nowadays some of my landscapes include people ;-). In the very early days there was a big discussion about photography as "art"... there is some wonderful reading about the (non-technical) history of photograp...
well, dSLRs are also cameras ;-)

I would love to see some of your work... Non-watch related would force you into a more personal zone, which is the essence of photography. Casey

By: ED209 : April 26th, 2014-19:34
Hi Casey, I've been taking photos from recent travels. All on iphone because my Canon p&s is acting strange. Been looking for a replacement. Any suggestions? Regards, ED-209
nice range of subject matter...
By: cshimokita : April 24th, 2014-19:50
Can you tell me about the last image in the series (the blue one)... That first one is very nice. The open doors and earth tones give the image a beautiful welcoming feel. The macro is also nice... Enjoyed looking at your work. Casey
Thanks Casey

like a solid watch on the wrist. It makes a difference to choose the appropriate gear (don't you think...). Some camera systems I struggle to enjoy while others... Casey

Hi Casey, It is great to have a dedicated Photography Forum on PPro. There are many here who share an interest in various aspects of photography, even if it is only to show off our watches in the best possible way. I am looking forward to the cross fertil...

I know there are some excellent photographers hanging around here ;-) and I hope to see more of their/your work. I have communicated with some by email and I know there is an interest to explore areas including and additional to actual photographs. In tha...

By: cshimokita : April 25th, 2014-15:39
I tend to keep it simple and post process via revisiting the site... I use to shoot a lot of reversal film (slides) where you only got the one chance (this was before scanning and home computers). The appropriate software can make a big difference and eve...

Nice Ducati... the red one...

We hunger for content :-)
By: bimbeano : April 26th, 2014-08:36
Taking the cast off is always a great moment ... it's putting it on that sucks ;-) ... made me go a bit slower on the Ducati. Working on Ducatis isn't a punishment i guess, and having to ride them to solve problems isn't one either :-). Dupuis is probably...

more recently cameras of course ;-). and lenses, lenses, lenses. But no Baseball Cards in a shoe box unfortunately. As they say, it didn't happen unless there is a photo ... Casey
Great idea

Hi Casey, Thanks a lot for the idea of a photo forum, I guess there will be a lot of interesting topics in here. I have a Leica IIIf with only one lens, the 50 mm 3.5. I have had other Leicas: M6, M7, M6TTL, and one R8, by now the only Leica M I have is a...
Please do, I would love to see your work...
By: cshimokita : April 28th, 2014-02:38
The IIIf is nice... I have the same and really like it. I went with the Canon LTM lenses in part because of price considerations... My newest (to me) lens is the Canon 13.5cm f/3.5 and I was amazed at the output (external finder for sure)... I am mostly a...
Fantastic!
