Untitled (DTW, Michigan, 2015) copyright 2015 Douglas Stockdale This is a follow on post from yesterday, as that photograph and this one were made within a minute of each other. The overall appearance may differ as I tweaked each image as a singular image. These two were not meant to be shown together to investigate... Continue Reading →
Paris – the party Seine
Untitled (the party Seine, Paris, 2010) copyright 2015 Douglas Stockdale In 2010 I had an opportunity to be in Paris during the summer and found a rite of summer (or anytime that is warm enough) that is frequently celebrated in this city; partying along the banks of the river Seine, thus the punster title of...

Flying by the seat of my pants
Untitled (Over Oz, Michigan, 2015) copyright 2015 Douglas Stockdale I keep getting asked how I am able to create my interesting aerial landscapes that I share here, such as this one and the one I posted yesterday. So here is the story about how I photograph landscapes while flying by the seat of my pants,... Continue Reading →
Snapseed grunge filter – its back!
Untitled (Evidence #Evidence 081940-02-01-01) copyright 2015 Douglas Stockdale One of my favorite photographic phone apps is Snapseed. Earlier this year I did one of my upgrades for the app, but then realized that the updated did not include the Grunge filter setting. Bummer. I enjoyed playing with the possibilities of this particular filter set as... Continue Reading →
Neightborhoods – Walk about
Untitled (Neightborhood, Rancho Santa Margarita, September 2015) copyright 2015 Douglas Stockdale One of things I enjoy are my walks around the neighborhood. During which, I like to photograph the things that I find interesting. Sometimes after a while the things I have photographed start to hint at something that I might not be aware of or eventually...

Looking for Atget – Parc Saint Cloud
Untitled (Parc Saint Cloud, France) Copyright Douglas Stockdale 2010 - Just recently I was asked if I had any photographs that investigate the city of Paris, which it turns out, I do. Regretfully, when I was in Paris, I was not inspired to work on a personal project that included Paris as a location, so... Continue Reading →
Budding Memory Pods – next version
Untitled (Budding Memory Pods, March 2015) copyright 2015 Douglas Stockdale Earlier this week I posted this same image, but a version with a very distinct blue hue. After having this matted blue version on my work bench for a while, it dawned on me that this was a nice Singular Image, but it would not... Continue Reading →
Budding Memory Pods
Untitled (budding memory pods) copyright 2015 Douglas Stockdale Earlier this week I had posted that I was finding myself being drawn back into my Memory Pods project. The photograph I posted was pretty close to a straight documentary image (which in retrospect is pretty boring at that). I was interested investigating the start of the... Continue Reading →
Budding Aloe Verde
Untitled (#120 Memory Pods) copyright 2015 Douglas Stockdale Last year I found myself photographing of all things, plants. Not a genre that that I have been drawn to before, but while messing around with the macro focusing capabilities of my Samsung 4, I started to investigate some aloe vera plants that had gone to seed in...

Sidewalk Superintendent
Sidewalk Superintendent (Acuto, Italy, 2010) copyright 2015 Douglas Stockdale Okay, where to start? This photograph was made while I was working on my Ciociaria project, but this image did not make the final edit into the photobook. Nevertheless, it has always intrigued me as this scene is just a little slice of urban life, almost universal... Continue Reading →
