My heart feels full with love for these friends and for photography and I can't wait to share more with you all.
Yes To Yellow by Joel Robison is a mysterious image that blends contemporary photography with timeless nostalgia. A small human figure has ascended a ladder to stand atop the leaf of a gigantic sunflower, amidst a golden field and evening sky.

A Chosen Path by Joel Robison is a surreal and nostalgic exploration of the pursuit of knowledge. A man walks down a misty forest path, while a monumental book looms before him. Wrapped in vines, a line drawing of a door emerges from the blank pages of the book, while the man walks toward it holding a large pencil.

It's been a while since my last interview, but boy am I making up for that with this next interview! Joel (Boy Wonder) has literally today finished his 3rd 365, his images are so impeccably crafted and his imagination seems just endless. This will change your life! Day threehundredandsixtyfive 1. Fill me in on your background, where are you from and how did you get in to photography? Well, my name is Joel Robison and I live in Cranbrook, British Columbia, in Canada. It's a small town in the Rocky Mountains. I first started to get into photography about 4 years ago, I had stumbled across Flickr and saw a few people doing different projects and I thought it was a fun hobby to try out. I've been active on Flickr ever since! 2. What made you decide to start a 365? I started my first one about 3 years ago and I had started just because I saw some other people doing it and I thought it looked like fun. I didn't finish that first try, but I ended up trying it again a few months later and stuck with it. I decided to do my 2nd and 3rd 365 projects because I think it's an excellent way to grow as an artist and to stretch yourself creatively. 3. What is your process when taking your 365 from getting ideas to editing? I have a notebook that bring with me all the time that I use to brainstorm different ideas, when I think of a concept or a theme I write it out and then branch out possible photos I could do with it. Then I go out and shoot! I'm almost always alone when I work, I find it's easier to stay focussed and to get the shots that I need when I'm by myself. Depending on the shot I'm working on, it takes anywhere from 20 minutes to 2 hours of shooting to get all the images I need. I try to edit the photos right away because I feel that it really helps to work on an image in the same mindset. Most of my images are edited in between an hour to two hours. 4. What are your tools of the trade? Well, I use a Canon Xti which is an older model but it does the trick! I mainly use a 50mm 1.8 lens. I also have a lightweight tripod and a wireless remote. I use Photoshop to edit my images. 5. Why do you think people are drawn to starting and following 365's? I think they are drawn to it because it's a challenge and it's a chance to try new things. I also think it's a great visual diary of a year of your life so it's a chance to document your life and share it with others. I think that people like following them because it gives you a great opportunity to get to know an artist and learn about their lives and see them grow day to day. 6. What is your least favourate 365 shot you've taken so far and why? I would say this one: I was in a bad mood that day and I got caught in a thunderstorm which ended up making me stranded in this little brick hut for a few hours. I didn't feel like taking anything else that day so I was stuck with this shot and I didn't really like it. 7. What is your favourate 365 shot you've taken so far and why? Wow, it's hard to pick a favourite but if I had to, I would say this one: because it came out exactly the way I had in my head and that never happens. I was feeling really stressed at that time with a job that I didn't like and feeling like I didn't know where my life was going and this really felt like it fit how I felt about life, that I was just a silhouette and nothing real. 8. What is your favourite 365 shot taken by another photographer? Wow, an even HARDER question! I would have to say this one by David Talley: He is so clever and his use of space and light is just beautiful. I love how this image is just simply done yet speaks so much. 9. What are some of your favourate things :)? Well, I love bicycles, coffee, gnomes, peace signs, and cameras :) 10. What is your best tip to taking a striking photo? Use manual settings! If you learn everything that your camera can do, it's the first step to being able to take a shot in any situation. 11. Your 365 seem to incorporate your surroundings and the elements, is this a big part of your style? I think so. I live a beautiful area of the world and I want to incorporate as much of it as i can, partly because it inspires me and partly because I want to share it with the rest of the world. 12. Who's 365 has been the most inspiring to you? I would have to say Brooke Shaden's 365 project. I was able to see it from just about the beginning to end and her growth and development as an artist was beautiful to see. 13. What are some of your favourite films, books and musicians? I really enjoy Canadian music like Sarah Slean, Sarah Harmer, and Feist but I also enjoy Coldplay :) I like a variety of movies, mostly ones with lots of whimsy or surrealism like Alice In Wonderland. 14. What has been your biggest achievement so far with your photography and 365? I would say for me the biggest achievement has been the growth that I've been able to make from the start of my project until now, I'm proud of the skills I've learned and i'm happy that people enjoy what I do. 15. Do you think it’s hard to be original within the 365 project? How do you keep your ideas original and fresh? I think that it can be hard not to do cliche things in a 365 project but each person can interpret ideas in their own way which makes it original. I think that as long as you are staying true to your own vision, it's original! 16. Which 365 shot was the most difficult to capture? Easily this one: Not because the image itself was difficult to do, but the mosquitoes were so thick that there was literally a black cloud following me, with about 100 of them biting me at once. I could only manage to take about 10 photos before having minor freak out and at one point I think I swore quite loudly! 17. Do you often change a lot of the original photo in Photoshop? It really depends on the image itself, sometimes I just play with the tones and contrast a bit but other times I create a lot of additions like lighting, props, and textures. 18. Do you think you have an original style that is you own? Um, I don't think I do, but other people have told me that I do. I think that I use a lot of the same techniques like multiple objects close to the edge to create DOF, but I don't know if that's original style or not :) 19. What is your favourate time of year to take photos? Hmmm......I would say spring time because the weather is usually nice and the sun is out long enough to give me lots of time to shoot. Each season brings with it, it's own set of advantages and disadvantages and the fun part is trying to incorporate them all! 20. If you could photograph any person alive or dead who would it be and why? Wow...tough question. I think if I could photography anyone it would be my grandparents. I only have one living grandmother now and I would love to have been as involved in photography when my other grandparents were alive to capture them in my own way. 21. Give us the skinny, what's the next big project you've got coming up? haha! Well, I have a blog that I'll be posting tutorials and different stuff (joelrobisonphoto.wordpress.com ) I'm also hoping to being a 52 weeks project in January called The Teleidoscope. 22. Which actor would play you in the film of your life? Um....if I got to choose I would say maybe Ryan Gosling :) 23. What did you want to grow up to be when you were a kid I would always answer with: A Disney Animator This was definately one of the hardest interviews to construct simply because I wanted to pick so many images to feature!!! Although Joel has finished his 3rd 365 Day Project (seriously this guy is magic!) he says he will still be posting regularly, plus...I only managed to show you a small sample of the amazing journey (or rather one of the amazing journey's) Joel has been on. So go HERE and view more of Joel's insanely amazing work :) I hope you liked the 365 feature, please let me know if you have any ideas for upcoming features, if you know any photographers you think I should feature....or if you would like to be featured yourself! Peace x
This idea came into my head yesterday while waiting to get an actual x-ray on my ribs, it's funny how life can influence art at the right time. I was struggling to find a photo idea for the letter X and in a somewhat cruel twist of fate, a suggestion was handed to me, I just wish it wasn't such a painful suggestion!
Hello! It’s been an interesting few weeks since my last post. I’m hoping to become more active on this blog and in the next few weeks I’ll be organizing things and trying to make …
