Why Pinholes?
Wednesday, April 27th, 2022
Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day was this past Sunday. As usual I made some pinhole photos and submitted one to the website for pinhole day. Above is the photo I sent. And here it is on the pinhole day website: http://pinholeday.org/gallery/2022/?id=432 Thanks go to my wonderful model, Ellen, for her excellent work on Sunday. I couldn’t […]
French PHOTO Finally Arrives
Saturday, March 5th, 2022
Thanks to a friend of my friend, Dave Rudin, I finally have copies of the Jan-Feb issue of French PHOTO magazine. The friend, who lives in France, had to mail the copies to both Rudin (who also has a winning photo in this issue) and myself. It appears the magazine is no longer distributed in […]
Alligator Farm
Sunday, February 27th, 2022
A few more snaps from Florida where I’m enjoying not experiencing February in Ohio. These are from the Alligator Farm in St. Augustine. It’s really a very nice zoo. They have an excellent lemur exhibit. Lots of birds as well.
Finding Eden
Tuesday, February 8th, 2022
Well, actually, Eden found me. And it opened the door to a wonderful creative relationship. We had actually met many years ago when she first started modeling. We did a shoot and then nothing happened. Turns out she had decided not to continue modeling at that time. Fortunately, she changed her mind and decided to […]
(Much) More of Mer Imbri
Thursday, February 3rd, 2022
Yes, Mer and I did shoot some nudes. The last nudes for me of 2020. The plague shut everything down shortly after this shoot. Sometimes I like to use orbs in regular photos. Mer wanted to do some photos with her Tarot cards. I’m always happy to go along with whatever my models want to […]
The Moon and Orbs
Sunday, January 30th, 2022
On my last shoot of 2020 I did a few photos with Mer Imbri (@merimbri on instagram) for my Brigman-White Project. I had a new “Moon” that I included in some of the photos. And, of course, I used one of the trusty older orbs for a few photos. As always, the lovely Mer did […]
Desolation
Saturday, December 11th, 2021
If you’ve been around this blog much in the past few years you are well aware that I’m a great admirer of Anne Brigman, a member of the Photo Secession and a pioneering photographer of the nude in nature. After seeing a retrospective of her work at the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno, I […]
Behind the Scenes
Tuesday, December 7th, 2021
In addition to being a beautiful and talented model, Carrie Turner is also an excellent photographer. Some people seem to use the made-up word “modelographer” in a derogatory way. I don’t really understand that. I know quite a few models who are also great on the other side of the camera. When a “modelographer” is […]
Some Alternative Photos
Wednesday, December 1st, 2021
Spending a whole day shooting at Proparazzi with Carrie, Tigger and Peggy gave me plenty of time to play around with some alternative forms of photography. These first two were made with a pinhole. And I did a few photos with a cheapie circular fisheye lens from the Lomo people. I like to play with things like these just to […]
Color In The Barn
Saturday, November 27th, 2021
I decided that some of the photos from Proparazzi with Carrie, Tigger and Peggy should be in color. The big barn there is lovely, has great light, and is full of fun props. Add in three beautiful, talented models and fun stuff happens. Mirrors are always fun to play with. Sometimes all you really need are some straight […]
