What the Camera Saw

I would like to thank all those of you who liked and paid me nice compliments on the previous posting of my new cover image, taken in Washington, DC, last week. I am often asked if I Photoshopped an image or changed it in any way. In the interest of full disclosure, here is the original, right out of the…

Is He Dealing with a Full Deck of Cards?

I thought of you over the weekend too. I always wake up to the radio every morning, except Sunday to NPR. I particularly like Saturday morning, with Scott Simon. This past weekend, as I am sure you know, he interviewed Mike Mitchell about his Beatles work. It was a good interview, nice to hear Mike’s voice and what he had…

You are not as Sharp as You used to be…

I was bumbling around looking for neg to scan, an old neg, over 20 years old, pushing 30 actually. In the process I found a trove of negs I was sort of looking for a few months ago. I also found this image of you that I made when we were in Reno in June of 1995. I always thought…

Based on a True Story

Hey Sarah, I thought of you today, several times actually, on rather diverse levels. But all intertwined. I was reading the paper this morning and a section fell out that spoke to holiday planning and food. One such foodie tidbit was cheesy little shortbread crackers. And I thought of Susan and the CSF holiday get together that won’t happen this…

Light in the South

I know it wasn't a trip to the deep south, but Virginia and North Carolina are still the south to me, a boy from Ohio. We traveled back roads to Farmville and Jettersville and everywhere we looked was a site of civil war battlefield. I know it is not much different than other rural areas in America, but it felt…

Just another Room with a View

On a recent pleasant summer day in the San Juan Islands, I found myself making real estate images of a very lovely property with an amazing view. Besides the usual architecture photos of rooms, I roamed around the grounds through beautiful gardens and wooded areas. I started to think about the role of the photographic image in the process of…

Beauty and the nature of decay

I keep meaning to call you to get together, but time seems to pass. I was even going to take you garden photo workshop back on the 8th. I thought it would be great to hang out with you and listen to a master gardener as well. I am sure it was a great day. My excuse for not following…

Palouse

A beautiful region in eastern Washington of lush farmland. Isolated and overlooked, this landscape was formed millions of year ago by the Missoula floods. Barren and treeless, but in spots, ten feet of topsoil. Wheat and potatoes are big crops here, with most of MacDonald's french fries starting out life here. But a dream like landscape for photographers.
