Untitled (Irvine, CA, May 2014) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale A bit more chaotic and probably little more abstract and maybe even more mysterious than the photograph that I posted a couple of days ago, here. Cheers!

Irvine Fountain

Untitled (Irvine, CA April 2014) copyright Douglas Stockdale.

Ella’s Birthday

. Ella's Birthday party, Irvine, CA copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale When we had a birthday party for Ella on Friday evening, the light was pretty low, but I thought I could do without using the flash with the  Samsung 4 phone-camera.

Instant Nomad – Santa Ana

. Untitled (Santa Ana, CA April 15, 2014) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale. Today was my day for jury duty. I was summoned to the Superior Court of California in Orange County. As always, I figured that this would be an interesting experience. Usually is. In the past, I have found that the court system is... Continue Reading →

Instant Nomad – In Transit March 2014

I made this observation during one of my frequent trips. A common perspective for those on flights. I am intrigued in this variant of portraiture and I have been making a series of these passenger portraits as a possible part of my Instant Nomad series. Cheers!
