Saturday, April 11th, 2015
Yes, I’ve been neglecting my blog. Sorry about that. Other things are taking priority in my life right now. But I’m sure I’ll get back to regular posting here someday. Meanwhile you can see something new from me just about every day over on Ello: https://ello.co/davel51 Come over and check it out. It’s a great […]
Fuzzy Portraits
Saturday, November 22nd, 2014
Along with shooting Lizzie AnneMarie with my instant cameras I also put my old Sima 100mm soft-focus single-element lens on the Nikon D7000 and did a few fuzzy photos with it. I’ve had this lens for something like 40 years. It was a forerunner of all the current fuzzy lenses out there and I like the […]
More Lenses
Friday, April 11th, 2014
Yes, there were some other lenses in that photo of the whole Micro 4/3 system that I have now. One I already had, a Pinwide wide angle pinhole “lens.” I’ve had it for a while and expect to use it to make a pinhole photo for Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day on Sunday, April 27. You should make […]
Beautiful Kat
Friday, February 14th, 2014
I’ve come to the end of the photos from my time in Florida last February. Maybe I can get through the work I did last March before this March is passed. We’ll see. So, I’m ending this series with a few portraits of my wonderful friend and model, Kat. Kat is one of my favorite […]
Florida Fun
Sunday, January 5th, 2014
It’s been way too long since I’ve added a new post here. Between the holidays and some minor health issues, I’ve just had too much other stuff going on. But I’ll try to be better. Since winter has been being so nasty to those of us in the frozen north, I thought it was a […]
Just Some Portraits
Tuesday, December 3rd, 2013
In the past year I’ve been shifting my work toward doing more portraits. I just found myself interested in doing more of that kind of work, so I’ve been doing it. Last December, as I was thinking about portraits, I decided to shoot some of Sarah. I’d worked with Sarah as a figure model in […]
Another Show
Wednesday, November 20th, 2013
It’s been a good year for gallery shows. I just got word that the photo above of the incredible Kat was chosen for the “Faces” show at the Darkroom Gallery in Essex Junction, Vermont. The juror was Elizabeth Avedon. The show opens December 12. There will be an artist’s reception on the date that the […]
Athena
Friday, March 30th, 2012
Back home from that long trip out west, it took me a while to get back to work. By that time it had gotten cold, so it was time to make use of my studio. And the first shoot I did was with an old friend. Athena is a lovely young woman, a talented photographer, […]
Snow Day
Friday, October 29th, 2010
I’m still in West Virginia, but I head back home tomorrow. We’ve had pretty good luck with weather down here, although yesterday was too sunny for good photos and yet windy and cold too. But this morning we woke up and saw it had snowed overnight, as it’s quite capable of doing in these mountains […]
Fun With JoJo
Friday, September 4th, 2009
I’m back home and working on catching up on stuff. I have two shows coming up this month, one being the Dirty Show up in Detroit, and have to get the prints ready for them. And my truck is still not running right, so I don’t have wheels. But, I had a lot of fun […]
