Some Romahni Portraits
Wednesday, June 8th, 2016
While we were down at the cabin in the Hocking Hills I did a few portraits of Romahni Rose. Back in 1969, when I graduated from high school, I got some money as graduation gifts. Enough money that was able to buy my first Nikon. It was a Nikkormat Ftn. I still have that camera […]
Angie in Blue
Thursday, April 21st, 2016
Still working through shoots from 2014. This is one I did with the lovely Angie. The theme for the shoot was blue, so we worked with whatever was handy and blue. Angie did her usual amazing job of modeling, creating a variety of moods. And, of course, we had to shoot a few sort-of nudes […]
Let’s try something different
Sunday, June 21st, 2015
Sorry for the neglect of this blog. I’ve been very busy in recent months and I’m also still not totally recovered from my illness in January. But mainly I’ve been captivated by Ello. I post a new photo over there almost every day. As I’ve said before, go there if you want to see stuff. […]

Yes, I’ve been neglecting my blog. Sorry about that. Other things are taking priority in my life right now. But I’m sure I’ll get back to regular posting here someday. Meanwhile you can see something new from me just about every day over on Ello: https://ello.co/davel51 Come over and check it out. It’s a great […]
Fuzzy Portraits
Saturday, November 22nd, 2014
Along with shooting Lizzie AnneMarie with my instant cameras I also put my old Sima 100mm soft-focus single-element lens on the Nikon D7000 and did a few fuzzy photos with it. I’ve had this lens for something like 40 years. It was a forerunner of all the current fuzzy lenses out there and I like the […]
More Lenses
Friday, April 11th, 2014
Yes, there were some other lenses in that photo of the whole Micro 4/3 system that I have now. One I already had, a Pinwide wide angle pinhole “lens.” I’ve had it for a while and expect to use it to make a pinhole photo for Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day on Sunday, April 27. You should make […]
Beautiful Kat
Friday, February 14th, 2014
I’ve come to the end of the photos from my time in Florida last February. Maybe I can get through the work I did last March before this March is passed. We’ll see. So, I’m ending this series with a few portraits of my wonderful friend and model, Kat. Kat is one of my favorite […]
Florida Fun
Sunday, January 5th, 2014
It’s been way too long since I’ve added a new post here. Between the holidays and some minor health issues, I’ve just had too much other stuff going on. But I’ll try to be better. Since winter has been being so nasty to those of us in the frozen north, I thought it was a […]
Just Some Portraits
Tuesday, December 3rd, 2013
In the past year I’ve been shifting my work toward doing more portraits. I just found myself interested in doing more of that kind of work, so I’ve been doing it. Last December, as I was thinking about portraits, I decided to shoot some of Sarah. I’d worked with Sarah as a figure model in […]
Another Show
Wednesday, November 20th, 2013
It’s been a good year for gallery shows. I just got word that the photo above of the incredible Kat was chosen for the “Faces” show at the Darkroom Gallery in Essex Junction, Vermont. The juror was Elizabeth Avedon. The show opens December 12. There will be an artist’s reception on the date that the […]
