More From Matthiessen
Wednesday, February 24th, 2016
When I shot at Matthiessen State Park I had the great fortune to be able to work with Claudine as well as Kelsey. It was a sunny day, which presented some challenges, but the new digital cameras handle sun and shade a lot better than those from a few years ago. But with these two […]
Kelsey At Matthiessen
Saturday, February 13th, 2016
Outside Chicago and adjacent to Starved Rock State Park is Matthiessen State Park. It’s not quite as interesting as Starved Rock, but does present some good photo opportunities. I visited there with the amazing, lovely Kelsey Dylan back in 2014. I’m still working my way through those older photos, making slow progress. So, here you […]
Dirty Show Time
Sunday, February 7th, 2016
It’s almost time for the Dirty Show in Detroit. I’ve had work in this show for many years, but a couple years ago I decided to stop entering it. I got talked out of that and entered again last year. But this year I did not enter. I will, however, have some prints available for […]
Gallery Show in Vermont
Thursday, February 4th, 2016
I was just notified that one of my photos has been selected by juror Peter Turnley for the upcoming show “Culture” at the Darkroom Gallery in Essex Junction, VT. This is an old favorite of mine taken way back in 1969 when I was working at the Newark (Ohio) Advocate as a photographer and spending […]
More Liv

One more post from my last shoot with Liv Sage. I hope to be working with this lovely lady many more times in the future. And, yes, in case there is any doubt, lovely Liv is a true redhead.
A Softer Liv
Friday, January 29th, 2016
On that last shoot with the amazingly wonderful Liv Sage I pulled out my old single-element soft focus lens and played around with it for a while. It makes nice soft photos in a way that really can’t be duplicated in software. Of course, DxO had no idea what to do with these files, so I […]
Liv and a New Workflow
Monday, January 25th, 2016
I recently did a new shoot with the lovely and wonderful Liv Sage. Since I’ve been experimenting with alternatives to Adobe Photoshop for my editing, I decided to use different software for processing this new shoot. The starting point for my new workflow is DxO Optics Pro. It does the file conversion from the original […]
Picture In A Gallery
Thursday, January 14th, 2016
I received word last night that the photo above of the incomparable Brooke Lynne will be in “The Photographic Nude” show at LightBox Photographic Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. The Photographic Nude 2016 show, which is Dedicated to the memory of Ruth Bernhard, opens on February 13 and will run through March 8. This is a great gallery and […]
More Liv

I posted this and then the post disappeared. I have no idea what happened. So, here it is again. More from my most recent shoot with the amazing Liv Sage.
Another Winner
Friday, January 8th, 2016
The winners of the French PHOTO magazine annual contest have just been announced on their website. Once again I’m very pleased to find out that one of my photos has won. They say this is the largest photo contest in the world and certainly there are many thousands of excellent entries, so it’s quite an […]
