It is no coincidence that showing one of my favorite images coincides with my website redesign. The latter first. I visit a lot of photographic websites, mostly through blogs to which I subscribe. Some I have learned to love, and … Continue reading →

Sometimes things get in our way. This can happen even when things work the way they should – best intentions can get entangled. I came across this particular difficulty in the woods, where I saw a plant that had opened … Continue reading →

I’ve posted about San Antonio in the past, which is a place I would some day like to return. One of the interesting history elements of the area is that of the missions. The one that every American knows is … Continue reading →

This was from one of my many walks in Gredos, Spain. It was a common sight to see these three women make their daily walk, probably for the same reason as mine, to enjoy a perfect day in a perfect … Continue reading →

When I was in Spain I stayed in a hotel in Gredos for the majority of my stay. This was a four star motel (fortunately, paid for by Englishtown, no other way to afford this), which was partially new, partially … Continue reading →

I have printed this image several ways, even when sending it as a postcard. The image looks back to Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas in Madrid, Spain from the other side of the bridge. I have gone back and … Continue reading →

When I was in Wales, one of the primary purposes was to see the castles, especially the ones that were built during the suppression by the English. These castles were built as military installations to control the countryside, and had … Continue reading →

I spent two years in college studying Music Theory and Composition, and 3 1/2 of the semesters I spent studying theory were concentrated on the music of Bach. Nobody shaped the rules of the music we hear today more than … Continue reading →

In addition to a number of reflection images in color, I also did a set in black and white. This will probably be a theme to which I will return because the results can be rather interesting.

In a previous entry I noted that pinhole photography can have a tendency to mask the subject, which allows the viewer to wander in their interpretation. I am offering this image without explanation.

On Saturday WVU played Pitt. All the #2 team in the nation needed to do was to knock off a 4-7 team at home to be able to play for the national championship. This is something that just about everyone … Continue reading →

Pinhole photography offers the availability to form the image to allow numerous interpretations. The perception offered by the image can be quite different from what the picture was actually about. I’ve always thought about how interesting it would be to … Continue reading →

Leaves are interesting when examined closely. Most interesting to me is the vein network of the leaf, which begins at the stem and moves into the all parts of the leaf. Each leaf is slightly different yet essentially the same … Continue reading →

If one goes to the Aran Islands, three large rocks off the coast of Galway, Ireland, they are missing something if they do not read “The Aran Islands” by John Millington Synge. Unfortunately, this book is no longer in print … Continue reading →

I am not sure how long I will be able to photograph bridges with my pinhole camera. Bridges are impressive structures that we normally take for granted, but in addition to being essential, they offer a graphic design that is … Continue reading →

I have offered a number of images from Cape May, but have shown none of the buildings that make this such an interesting place to visit. This is one of the places where my girlfriend and I stayed on several … Continue reading →

  I find lines interesting. Lines sometimes lead us places, they sometimes skew our view, then sometimes organize of show a lack of organization. This particular image, as has been the case with a number of infrared images, was taken … Continue reading →

As I mentioned in my previous entry, I find reflections interesting. Water reflections may be my favorite because the image changes each moment. Straight lines are seldom straight, and can be curled into circular shapes. The overall reflection normally retains … Continue reading →

  It is no secret that I have a love for Baseball, as evidenced by the post Tejada and Norfolk Tides 2004. I am the sort of person who loves extra innings (known to me as “free Baseball“) and might … Continue reading →
