Lately I’ve become more and more interested in capturing subtle color in my work. Unfortunately, one of the great frustrations of digital photography is getting color to display accurately, especially on the web where web browsers can’t be trusted to read the color profiles embedded in image files. To get around web browser colorblindness, the convention is to use the sRGB color profile, which is older and more universal. Of course using sRGB is like trying to recreat a Rothko with paint by number, there just aren’t enough shades of color to pick from…

Anyways, here is a test to see how color works in different web browsers.

For the past couple of years I’ve had the great pleasure of photographing special events for Elizabeth Spencer wines in St. Helena, California. Here are a few photos I shot Saturday during their annual Harvest party. Be sure to check out Elizabeth Spencer at their website and on Facebook.

I’ll be Photographing Cop Sound (formerly known as Average Height Children) at The Stork Club this Saturday. I had a blast shooting them at Blake’s in Berkeley a few months ago and I’m really looking forward to see them perform again. They’re a great group of guys that have a lot of fun.

Come check them out along with Treehouse Orchestra and Citabria this Saturday, April 9th at 8pm at the Stork Club on 2330 Telegraph, Oakland.
