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. […]
The French String Continues
Tuesday, January 20th, 2009
Thanks to my friend, Chris at Univers d’Artistes I’ve learned that once again I have a photo in the Jan/Feb issue of French PHOTO magazine. I’ve had a real run of good luck with that magazine, which some consider to be the best general circulation photo magazine in the world. I first sent photos to […]
In passing…
Saturday, January 17th, 2009
Well, it’s been another week with no post here. I continue to be far too busy and besides, it’s just too damn cold to think, let alone think of something to post. I need to move south. But that’s not going to happen any time soon, so I guess I’ll just have to deal with […]
Quite An Honor
Tuesday, December 30th, 2008
This has been a very good year for me personally and artistically, despite the awful events with the economy. And today it got even better when I learned that Lin and Rich over at Fluffytek had awarded a “Golden Fluffy” to me for “Best Blog Image of the Year.” Wow! I’m amazed that Lin singled […]
Reruns and Politics (and Political Reruns)
Sunday, December 21st, 2008
I’ve posted this photo before. I shot it in Hawaii (on a beach, though you’d never know that if I didn’t tell you) with Leona Anne back in September. I enjoy watching the lives of my photos. Some immediately strike me as successful photos, but soon or eventually they lose their charm and I no […]
More Krappiness
Saturday, December 13th, 2008
I’ve spent a good deal of time this past week looking through my old photos for things I’ve done with various kinds of “Krappy Kameras” to find things to send to the juried show in New York. I have way more than I can send, but I think this one is going to make the […]
In The Circle
Monday, November 10th, 2008
It’s a busy time at my place. We have a friend visiting from Finland. She leaves tomorrow early in the morning. And, meanwhile, I’ve been photographing a dance concert, actually two concerts, at Ohio University. That has involved spending this weekend in Athens watching the dances while they are being lit. I’ll be doing more […]
This Rocks
Wednesday, November 5th, 2008
I’m resisting doing another political post. I’ll just say that now that the promising, posturing and lying is over for a while it’s time to see if any of the promises will be kept. History tells us that it’s not likely. But I have hope, while remaining a skeptic. That’s Phoenix Kelley posing while freezing […]
A Famous Photographer
Friday, October 31st, 2008
And now something a little different. I recently received a copy of the Taschen book, Camera Work, The Complete Photographs, as a birthday gift from my wife. It’s a great book. Every photographer should have a copy in their library. This book will show you the starting point for photography as art. And it’s a […]
