. Untitled (San Onofre State Park, CA April 2014) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale. While we were picnicking at San Onofre State Park last Easter Sunday, we took a long walk down the beach toward Camp Pendelton, where the public beach officially ends. I have always been fascinated with what the ocean tide creates on its... Continue Reading →
. untitled (San Onofre State Beach, CA April 2014) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale For Easter this year, the family headed to San Onofre State Park and down trail 6 to the beach for a picnic. Also an occasion to say a last goodby to Lucy, the kid's dog for the past 14 years, who passed... Continue Reading →
. 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 →
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!

Untitled (Hunt Valley, Maryland, March 2014) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale While on a business trip earlier this week to Maryland, I continued to investigate the found urban landscape. Serendipity and chance play a decisive part of this investigate. In this case, this is a composition found when looking out my hotel window. Cheers!
untitled (Anaheim, CA) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale - I have been continuing to think about what makes the wider format of the Samsung 4 cellphone camera images so intriguing. Perhaps it finally dawned on me and maybe I'm the last to figure this out but it's a similar wide ratio as to my high-def t.v.... Continue Reading →
Pine Lake, copyright 2013 artist photobook by Douglas Stockdale I just posted this same announcement on The PhotoBook blog, but I am really excited to announce that I recently arranged with photo-eye (Santa Fe, NM) book store to sell the last copies of the edition for my Pine Lake artist photobook. I believe that in... Continue Reading →
untitled (Aliso Viejo, CA, February 2014) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale. Continuing to look at urban landscapes using a wider than "normal" perspective. Now thinking that the term panoramic implies too wide of a perspective for these photographs. Image cropped to a traditional 10x8 format below. Also thinking I should also consider a 6x6 square image... Continue Reading →
