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 […]

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 […]
