I’ve never understood “real” cameras.

I could use one fairly decently, but never in manual mode where I could tweak the settings to get a perfect picture. People have explained them to me, I’ve bought books, I’ve experimented endlessly, but to no avail. I belong to the digital generation and can make a computer or phone or tablet do whatever I want, but aperture and ISO refused to make sense to my brain. So instead, I focused on mastering iPhone photography.

…Until a couple of weeks ago, when all of a sudden my mind and my DSLR camera bonded.

Sharing the Sky

I can’t explain it to you (yet), but I finally got it. I started shooting in Manual mode and on RAW files, learned how to convert and adjust, and began creating a collection of new Birmingham images.

Birmingham at Dusk

My wonderful team at Alabama Graphics worked alongside me to perfect these new shots for printing, and I am thrilled to announce that Picture Birmingham now has a new line of photos available in larger sizes! In addition to the widths I’ve always offered, these new images are also available in 18×24 and 24×30, both in print and gallery wrap canvas. This new line of photos feature crisper, more detailed images that portray our city in an exciting way.

Sun and Storms

These larger prints and canvases are perfect standalone statement pieces, or would be fantastic grouped with smaller prints. There are currently five pictures available in the shop in the new larger sizes with more being added weekly. Click on any of the images in this post to shop now!

As always, 100% of the profits of all Picture Birmingham sales go directly to The WellHouse ministries.
