A few more photos of Athena, this time taken with a “real” camera, my D7000 and my 50mm f/1.4 lens. I like that lens for portraits. These were shot stopped down one stop to f/2. It’s nice and sharp there, with a shallow depth of focus. The originals of these, of course, are in color, […]
Instant Athena
Wednesday, November 26th, 2014
I’ve long enjoyed the 3000 speed instant film…both the Polaroid stuff and the Fuji copy. I was working on a project using that film when Fuji announced it was discontinuing it. That was a sad day. I have a stash of it and I’m continuing to work with it until it is gone forever. 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, […]
Dirty, Dirty, Dirty
Tuesday, August 25th, 2009
Just got the word that I’ll have two photos in the Dirty Show at the end of September/beginning of October up in Detroit. This is the first time they’ve picked more than one of my entries for the show. Here are the two that will be exhibited: Bed Posts (Models: Athena, Unbearable Lightness) (Photographed before […]
Back to Photography
Sunday, March 22nd, 2009
OK…that’s enough of politics and legal crap. Back to photography and beautiful nudes. And light. And shadow. Here’s Athena again from the Florida shoot. This was taken in weak, overcast late afternoon light. I liked what the weak sun was doing with the shadows of the balcony railing. I like the way the shadows play […]
Under The Wire
Monday, March 16th, 2009
Here’s an example of what you won’t be seeing here after the new 2257 rules go into effect in a couple days. OK…so it isn’t great art, but it’s a photo that I had thought about making for a while and Athena came by today to help me do it. I guess some might call […]
Coming Home
Saturday, March 14th, 2009
I’m on my way home from the beach. It’s hard to drive north and watch the temperature drop on the car’s thermometer. It was a great vacation. Lots of fun. But it’s time to go back home. We are stopping to visit relatives in Virginia, then will go on back to the frozen north. I […]
Steamy
Wednesday, March 4th, 2009
You are in a very nice condo in Florida with three lovely figure models. There is a great big shower with glass doors. What is a photographer to do? Athena, Martha, and Unbearable Lightness did a great job of steaming up the place. Athena did the photoshopping on this file. She’s really wonderful at that.
Florida Heat and Light
Monday, March 2nd, 2009
Well, it seems I’ve set a new record. This is the longest I’ve gone without a post since I started this blog several years ago. Sorry about that. I’ve been busy. I just returned from a trip to Florida where I got a break from winter, did some family stuff, and also got in a […]
Dirty Show X Review
Monday, February 9th, 2009
I just flew in from Detroit and boy are my arms tired! Sorry…I love that old joke. Actually we got back from the Dirty Show late yesterday afternoon, but I was way too fried to even think about blogging last night. Still pretty wiped out today…but it’s time for my annual review of the show. […]
