  • Nature’s End

    Green. That’s what I felt like seeing. I thought you might enjoy it too. Not only do I like the color, but I like the stillness of these pictures. Quietude and solitude are two reasons that we bought the farm. These pictures are not from there. We have trees, but they are certainly not huge,…

  • Never

    I promise you, I never make self portraits. Selfies are a thing that I think are exceptionally narcissistic. I accidentally took a picture of myself that I kinda liked, because I intentionally made myself look wrinkly and dry old. I experimented with that for a while, but you never saw them. Ugh. I don’t really…

  • On Day One

    I don’t know why, last night of all nights, musical miss thought I needed to hear this story. When Ringo Starr went to see and say goodbye to George Harrison in Switzerland where George was so sick from cancer that he could not sit up, Ringo spent some time with him but apologized because he…

  • Out in the Woods

    https://raylaskowitz.substack.com Cold weather. Golden light. Maybe nothing better as we come to its end. What a year. Mostly, nothing great came of it. That better change next year. Yesterday, I think I said that I would grab hold and shake it hard. Moving to Substack is one of those things I’m doing to change my…

  • There Is No Soul Behind it

    There has been a pretty spirited discussion across multiple socials about AI and photography. The question is simple enough. Is AI photography? Most of the photographers who responded said, “no.” Many photographer’s comments showed that they had no idea what the hell they are talking about, That’s the same problem most of the world has…

  • Cantaloup

    T his image is about fall. Yes, I know fall came to an end a couple of months ago. But, I finally got around to working on this picture. It’s another one of my layering experiments. This one was much easier to do than yesterday mostly because I used the basic template that I built…

  • Last Chance

    L ast Chance Texaco. Not, this is your last chance. Last Chance Texaco is song by Ricki Lee Jones. She also wrote a book by the same name, which is an autobiography. We are listening to it. We are big on podcasts, so why not listen to books when we are doing something semi-mindless? So…

  • So Much

    T here’s so much. Too much. Everywhere. All over the place. I’m starting to understand the problem. I’m beginning to understand what the internet’s democratization did. It opened the doors to everyone. That’s not a bad thing. Everyone deserves a chance. It clogged up all of the artistic pathways to the the people wanting to…

  • Sunlight

    T his almost didn’t happen. I had so many problems rebooting and reinstalling software that I was about to give up. For instance, OnOne took just one hour and fifteen minutes to load. I have no idea why. Most everything else loaded in a reasonable amount of time. But, there was a lot of it.…
