My writing is underway for the IR photography book. Rough shelf date is Jan 2012. We are thinking of a name for the title…Of course it starts as Infrared Photography then a phrase. My rough idea was “Infrared Photography, A Creative Edge”. Not bad, but I am open for any ideas! Post your title in the comments below or on my Facebook page. If we pick your choice…I will be glad to get you a free copy of the book!!! So post your ideas away!! (Please note: the final decision for the title may come from other sources)

Places 2 Explore News:
Hello everyone! I took this past week off for the first time since starting my blog in March of 2009…after 602 posts and now over 600,000 visitors, I have decided to keep Places 2 Explore running..but with one BIG change. Instead of my 6 days a week posting…unfortunately, I am going to switch it to a Saturday (only) post…1 day a week. I have been shooting many portraits recently and even shot a banquet! This has kept me very very busy. My original goal was to start my portrait business one day and one area must suffer…that will be my landscape shots. So I will begin my portrait learning process immediately. After a few shoots, I see I have lots to learn! Please come back and read P2E on every Saturday! Have fun! Thanks for all your visits and comments! Cheers, Pete

The Photographer’s Right
I always try to catch up and read my friend’s blogs. Dave Wilson has “News and Views from Dave Wilson“. He had a great post yesterday about Security Guards and having issues with a tripod taking photos of a building. Dave, I agree with you 100%! I have had my share of security run ins. After reading Dave’s comments, it gets me fired up. For those that may not know…there is a PDF out there called “The Photographer’s Right”. It is posted below. I always keep a copy in my camera bag. If you want to get a copy, just click the photo. As more people are buying DSLR’s, taking photos has become more difficult around town for security reasons. Throw in a tripod and you are a target for all security guards. I understand that certain areas should not be photographed…Military and Government Installations, but I am always curious as to why certain Churches will not allow photographs using a tripod without permission? This issue can be dragged out forever. I just wish one day, it becomes easier for us photographer’s…not worse!! Sadly, the outlook does not look good. At least Disney allows tripods!! =)
