Cannery Show
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009
A quick post to let you all know that I’ll have some prints on display at the Cannery Gallery in downtown Dayton for the month of May. This opportunity came up suddenly, so what I’m putting up is what was framed and ready to go. Some old and some new. But at least they will […]
More Claudine
Sunday, April 26th, 2009
More of Claudine at the beach. It was cold. It was very windy. Claudine was a total trooper, though she did have to close her eyes because of all the sand blowing around in this spot, just off the beach on Lake Michigan. I’m loving those shadows and all the lines and angles along with […]
Claudine
Friday, April 24th, 2009
Before I went to Chicago a couple weeks ago I asked a friend who shoots nudes and has a lot of time living in Chicago if he could suggest some models for me to contact. His first recommendation was Claudine. I looked at her portfolio and knew I wanted to shoot with her if possible. […]
Detroit Show
Sunday, April 19th, 2009
I drove up to Detroit yesterday to go to the Midwest Society of Erotic Photography show at the CPOP Gallery. It was a lot of fun. Good food, good music and, most importantly, a lot of good people. The gallery was beautiful and the show was very nicely presented. Those are my three prints on […]
Chicago Faces
Wednesday, April 15th, 2009
I’m still in Florida. Flying back home in the morning. My daughter is ok, but didn’t feel well enough to go back to school today, so I’m just keeping an eye on her while she rests today. This evening I’ll take her somewhere for dinner, then take her to her dorm where her friends will […]
Nude in Chicago
Monday, April 13th, 2009
OK…I’m still shooting nudes. I worked with a couple models while I was in Chicago. This is LuxxxNoir and, trust me, she was nude when I took this photo. I told her she could leave her hat on. I shot with her the last time I was in Chicago and she was the first model […]
Life is full of surprises.
Sunday, April 12th, 2009
“Man plans. God laughs.” I’m in Tampa right now. Not a trip that was on my calendar. My daughter, who is in college down here, had to have her appendix removed yesterday. When I heard what was going on I got on the first available flight and arrived here late last night. Ironically, after driving […]

I’ve been in Chicago this week. Today I saw the Karsh exhibit and the Munch exhibit at the Chicago Art Institute. Both those shows are fantastic, as I expected. If you are near Chicago, get there to see them before they leave at the end of this month. Unfortunately for this visit, anyway, much of […]
Dance at the studio
Saturday, April 4th, 2009
Practically since the very beginnings of my life as a photographer dance has been a subject I loved. I started photographing dance at the newly-formed Ohio University Dance Department when I was a 17-year-old college freshman looking for something to photograph. I fell in love with dance then and that love remains. In recent years […]
