Looking at one photograph at a time
A quick shout-out about my discovery of purple fringe and what to do about controlling it, which is not to be confused with the song Purple Rain. Although humming Purple Rain while working on this digital manifestation I find does seem to help reduce stress. As a black and white film photographer who has incorporated digital color...

I am in the midst of preparing one of my Bewilderment photographic prints for a new home, courtesy of Los Angles Center of Photography's (LACP) Artsy.net exhibition. The exhibition ran through June 30th, that I announced earlier. This is one of the smaller print in an edition of five and the image size is 7" x... Continue Reading →
I am very honored to be included in The Photographers Eye's (virtual) gallery exhibition, Living and Photographing in the Time of COVID-19. As you probably suspect, the theme and concept for the exhibition is pretty well covered by the exhibition title; how we as artists respond to current events brought on by this pandemic. I...

It was a sunny morning today, so with mask & hat in tote, I took my camera for a walk down in to Arroyo Trabuco, which is where the Oso Creek runs through, as it meanders down from the Angeles Forest and eventually into the Pacific Ocean. My purpose was to take a different photograph... Continue Reading →

So while getting my eyes checked out earlier this year just as the pandemic was starting to break, I had to have this eye correction gear on to confirm that... Continue Reading →
When thinking of Earth Day, the poetic photograph above as a metaphor for what Earth Day represents for me always seems to come to mind. This was captured in the spring of 2006 and has all of the elements of hope for an Earth Day narrative: trees budding representing a new life, running water as... Continue Reading →
Thus my fifth in a series of diptych mini-posters (fourth, Dreaming was published here), and this one reaffirms my hope for the future. I am one of those positive guys who looks for silver linings and attempts to make lemonade when handed lemons. Okay, we also have a really great lemon tree in the backyard that... Continue Reading →
In my last update about my TechTransfer project I had discussed how this project was continuing to evolve. At that time I had converted 108 images to Black & White, and now I am up to 160 converted photographs. Musically I can sense a number of different riffs on this body of work so I...

A status report on the progress of my TechTransfer project that I discussed in my last post while considering an extensive body of photographic work I had created earlier in China. First, I am becoming more comfortable with the working title TechTransfer, which still might morph to one of my earlier names that I was... Continue Reading →
