Visit Sky Gilbar Photography

I first met Sky through a mutual friend. As always, the conversation started with the usual "so what are you doing in Panama?". Sky mentioned he was a professional photographer, world traveler, and several other interesting things.

For the moment, I'm going to focus on the photography.

The first thing you should do is visit the web site, SkyGilbar.com. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. Take your time as you browse through the many photos on this site. Ok? Get the idea?

Now, get a cup of coffee and check out his other site, the photoblog, Don't Look Now. I like this site far better. The first one is all flash, and while it does it's job of showing the pics, etc, flash to me has a funky, fake feel, and the navigation is painful to me.

Don't Look Now is very straightforward, delivers the pictures quickly, and doesn't get in the way of the experience. Groovy.

The important thing here is that Sky is a fantastic photographer. He has experience in many areas, including Travel, Journalism, Portraits, Fashion, Glamour, and.. well, just about everything. He is a consumate professional, with a very mature and optimistic attitude that only increases his value.

Look at the Nature Photography here - it's amazing how clean the images are, so crisp you feel like you are there, next to the camera.

Portobello Dancer just blows me away.

Action shots? Try the Construction Workers Protest coverage. I think that takes some balls. Those guys were angry, and pretty emotional that day. Sky mentioned on the site:

So because this was an AP assignment, my best stuff goes to them. These are my “seconds”, but you can get a taste of the chaos from these.

Well, now I want to see those AP photos!

So if you need a world-class, experienced, multilingual photographer, you've just found your man.
