From the heart warming movie Field of Dreams; if you build a (baseball) fields, they will come. Thus the idea behind my purchase earlier this week of a brand-spanking new 24" Canon Pro-2100 printer. If I make bigger prints, I will then sell these! Up till now I mainly sell 16 x 20" prints (on... Continue Reading →
Expired Film & Serendipity
Pease be advised: Do not try to adjust your monitor! The colors you are looking at are indeed "unique". One of the interesting aspects of using expired 120 film is not knowing what might come back from the processing laboratory. Sometimes, as with the Pampas Grass photograph that I had discussed earlier this week, most... Continue Reading →
Mini Portfolio effective alternative at Portfolio Reviews
This is a quick assessment following up on my recent article about preparing for a Portfolio Review, which I had the pleasure (and angst) to be sitting on both sides of the review table. I just returned from the LACP 2019 Exposure Weekend in Marina del Rey in which I was a portfolio reviewer and... Continue Reading →

Oleander – the Snow White lesson
My attention to my Middle Ground artist book has been on hiatus for a short time; in retrospect I think that all of the leporello book binding I completed for this artist book edition in conjunction with preparing for the solo exhibition really took it out of me. It was pretty intense experience, but when a... Continue Reading →
Why (Photo) Blog?
This is my perspective after being a photo-blogger for over ten years. This blog that you are reading is still on-going for that entire time, anther one is now a magazine and for another it's busy supporting a SoCal photo group.

Ode to Father’s Day
What can you say about Father's Day that perhaps has not already been said; it's one of the one days for the guys who are dad's. We come in all shapes and sizes. Thank goodness! This day for me is also bittersweet as my father has been gone for too long, but that does... Continue Reading →
