30 Minutes
I made this picture 30 minutes ago. I’m not trying to prove anything. I just got excited.

From Charlottsville To Santa Fe
The blog title is from a line in an album by the Dawes, a California band. They’re good, but the interesting thing is we know their parents but not them. These pictures were made in New Mexico. Even though there is only one real Christmas picture, they all feel Christmasy to me. Or, at least…

Just Another Sunday
T his picture was made during one of the last times that I actually travelled around New Orleans. I went to the hospital to get my second vaccination against CoVid. Little did I know the trip and the injection was meaningless because of my “other” illness. At least one good thing came out of this.…

Living in a Ghost Town
T his picture. This very one. I wanted to publish it today even thought we aren’t quite to this point. Why? Because I could and felt like it. That’s reason enough even if it isn’t the best reason. I suppose I could tell you some story about my thinking, but there isn’t any. Stories or…

A little Japanese
I was walking the all seeing dog, when I saw this reflection is a water feature that can be found along one of her routes. For some reason it was clear and blue. It was also highly reflective. The bare trees of winter were looking back at me. I made a lot of pictures.…

All The Blues
Oh, so blue. That’s what I saw on an early evening walk. I was mostly looking at the bare trees when the moon came into view. “Oh, man,” I thought. I stopped, braced myself, and made four exposures. This, obviously, is one of them. This color, or one just slightly lighter, used to be called…
