Wayward Road Trip – Chicago
Sunday, August 8th, 2010
Many years ago when I bought my first house and was living in it alone I invited a couple of my photographer friends, Ken and Tim, to share the house with me. They moved in and we came to call the place the “Home For Wayward Photographers.” Something like 30 years later we are still [...]
Swamp Thang
Wednesday, August 4th, 2010
You wander around in the woods around here long enough and you are bound to come across a scene like this one. It’s just like hunting mushrooms. You have to know where to look. It also helps if a beautiful model like Kelsey Dylan is hiking along with you and looking for just the right [...]
Claudine at Starved Rock
Friday, July 30th, 2010
Here’s a shot of Claudine out at Starved Rock State Park, that I did a while back when I was up in Chicago. I shot this when I was up there for the opening of my show at Gallery Provocateur. That show has ended and I’ll be back in Chicago next week to pick up [...]
Field Work
Tuesday, June 8th, 2010
On Saturday Ken, who knows his way around the restored natural areas of Chicago, took Natalya and me out to a wetland where we could do some shooting. I think Natalya had a good time. And we got some fine photos. Then we cleaned up and made our way to the gallery for the second [...]
Old Iron
Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010
After our opening of the show at Gallery Provocateur on Saturday night some of us got up early Sunday morning to do a shoot. I met Ken, Iona Lynn and Claudine at 8 a.m. and we headed to an old abandoned iron works that Ken knew about for a day of shooting. It was a [...]
Gallery Provocateur
Sunday, May 30th, 2010
Last night was the opening of my show at Gallery Provocateur. It was a great night with the gallery packed with people all evening. I’m so used to openings where a dozen or so people wander in throughout the evening that the crowds that Veronika always seems to be able to draw for her gallery [...]

Changes
Wednesday, April 14th, 2010
Well, it looks like I’ve set a new record. I think this is the longest period of time I’ve gone without a post here since I started the blog. Sorry about that. I’ll let you in on a few of the reasons. Let’s start with my web site. It’s gone. One day it was there, [...]
A Day In Chicago
Thursday, February 18th, 2010
The day after the gallery opening Dave Rudin introduced me to his friend, Ted Preuss, who does wonderful Platinum/Palladium prints from his 4×5 and 8×10 format photos of nudes. His work is amazingly beautiful. It was a real treat to get to look at his lovely prints. We started our day by going to the [...]
