From the sketches I create my best images for my portfolio and galleries. In order to get to a point that I can clearly call an image a portfolio piece I must live with it for awhile and have it stand the test of time. I have assembled all of my &#8220;sketches&#8221; from Namibia soI I can start making final selections for prints and exhibition.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cThe editing process is very important to me. I shot close to 8000 images. I rank all the images and my ranking is essentially a 1 is an idea that doesn&#8217;t quite work. They get deleted instantly. A 2 is a solid idea that has a stage but no actor or an actor and no stage but the\u00a0idea is solid. They are also deleted. A 3 is well a good college try. It is a solid image but it is lacking something. Three;s that can become 4&#8217;s are kept. I want to see if a 3 may be come a four with processing. A three that stays a 3 is deleted. A 3 that can become a 4 is\u00a0kept. A 4 is a truly solid strong image and one to be proud of. A 5 is portfolio image that will have a long life. I make a gallery with the images that have a 3+ or greater ranking and then I live with them and narrow it down. In the end I will likely take 5 of these into\u00a0exhibitions and portfolio.\u201d<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sethresnick.com\/recent\/Namibia2014\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">View more of Seth&#8217;s images here.<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.johnpaulcaponigro.com\/blog\/category\/namibia\/\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">View more Namibia posts here.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seth Resnick and I just returned from two stellar Namibia photography workshops that focused on its world class dune fields.
