Abstract Photography

by admin on January 15, 2012

One of the cool things about photography is that you can shoot just about anything and call it what ever you want. The image I am including today was shot with my iPod Touch. It was shot and processed using the Cameramatic app, which is just one of the many apps I have gotten for my iPod. There is an app for everything now. At times all the images I shoot are taken with the iPod and I hardly touch my camera. But not always.There are so many possibilities now. The song today is Ese Lunar by Kevin Johansen.

Love Of Photography

by admin on January 9, 2012

I do love photography. It’s the one thing that allows me to express myself without having to say anything. Not that there’s anything wrong with having to explain myself. It’s just that sometimes words get in the way. Tonight I don’t have a lot of words to say but I do have an image and a song to share. The song is Talking At The Same Time, by Tom Waits. The image is called Secret Passage.

The Art Of Chaos Revisited

by admin on December 31, 2011

This time last year I was encouraging everyone to embrace a little bit of chaos in their lives. Chaos seemed to rule all aspects of my life back then and I thought why not just swim in it instead of fighting the current. Well, this year I’m going to wish you peace, love, and harmony for the coming year, but if chaos comes knocking on your door don’t turn your back on it. Invite it in and treat it like an old lost friend. The song I am including today is Toque De Queda, by Jorge Drexler.

Staying In Touch

by admin on November 9, 2011

I’ve been in a photographic lull lately and when that happens I tend to stay away from here. Well, here’s to breaking the cycle.

There’s something fascinating yet a little bit disturbing about mannequins. Imagine walking by an empty room and seeing what looks like a person only it turns out to be a headless mannequin. Gives me the creeps every time I think about it. So here’s one for you to enjoy. The music is called Feathers, by Man Man.

Afternoon Light

October 10, 2011

This image was captured using a Lensbaby Composer. Each room has its own character and the challenge for me is to capture the image I see in the best possible light. For some people the best time of day is early morning. For others it’s late evening. For me the best light is afternoon light. [...]

Me and my Lensbaby

October 10, 2011

I love my new Lensbaby Composer. This image was taken with the Plastic Lens and processed in Photoshop using Nik Software’s Silver Efex Pro.  I’m still learning to use the different lens attachments but having fun doing so. If you’ve seen any of my other images you will have guessed by now that the soft [...]

Back Again

I have been away from here way too long again. Last time I was here was in March of 2011 and now it’s October. Seems like a lifetime ago. Even now I don’t have very much to say but I do have a new image to share with you. The photo was taken back in [...]

Ghost Bike

March 4, 2011

The other day I was walking across the Pfluger Bridge on Lady Bird Lake when I came across a white bicycle that had been chained to the railing. It is painted entirely white and stands out in contrast to its surroundings. The bike was placed there in memory of  Royce Scott McCoy. He died after [...]

Endless Possibilities

March 2, 2011

Lately I have been shooting a lot of images with my iPod Touch. There are so many camera Apps to choose from that there are literally endless possibilities for producing an image. Some of the applications let you choose the type of camera and film to shoot with. You also get a wide assortment of [...]

Dancing With My Camera

February 21, 2011

It’s no secret that I love music nor is it a secret that I love to dance. Now that I have an iPod Touch I can shoot just about anything, anytime, anywhere. This time I shot my feet while I was dancing by myself. I love a good Merengue, (the pie and the dance), and [...]
