Traveling back through the weeks that were

August 24, 2009

Traveling through the last few weeks with thoughts mostly of Ann and her upcoming birthday; which occurred on August 17th. It all began with a trip up the coast to Sheboygan, WI to introduce Jim Proue and David White. I’d thought it would be fun to have them sing and play at Ann’s little surprise family birthday […]

Meditation — contemplate impermanence

July 31, 2009

Photographer, Richard Avedon, said, “I think all art is about control – the encounter between control and the uncontrollable.” In my experience we have much less control than we often believe. Change and impermanence rule — that thought — that feeling — that observation — try and hold one of them for even a moment. […]

July 30, 2009

Dan has been quite busy at his Big Horn Forge (we’ve also been working on his website for almost a decade). He had me photograph a recently completed gate for a stone walled garden in Cedarburg, WI. A fabulous gate for a fabulous garden. A gallery of additional views can be seen here. (click images for […]

So why don’t I feel great about having a print chosen for the “Wisconsin Photography 2009” Exhibition at the Wustum Museum?

July 22, 2009

In 1979 they began the tradition of a “Wisconsin Photography” exhibition. As I recall it was an invitational, as well as juried (selections made from 10 matted prints submitted by each photographer); and billed as […]

Are the tools immaterial?

July 8, 2009

“As photographers we sell emotion not emulsion. The tools are immaterial, the resulting piece is all important.” — Jeff Adams In principle I agree — yet fine tools do make getting to the result a tad easier. Today I began a 15 day trial of Silver Efex Pro for use with Lightroom. It is quite a […]

celebration, memories framed, and loss

June 26, 2009

Duncan moved on out of this life Wednesday evening. (click images for larger view) Mary Kelly stopped by to show me that 10 years after receiving a print from me as a birthday gift she decided to frame it.

Every other Wednesday’s for Sophia and me

June 19, 2009

This past Wednesday Sophia and I walked down to Doctor’s park beach on the western shore of Lake Michigan. Why do we all love to look for and pickup water-smoothed rocks and stones? What makes throwing stones into water so enjoyable? I understand the challenge of skipping; but the kids seem extraordinarily happy with a […]

Transportation as sculpture

June 19, 2009

Stopped for a few groceries and found this in the market parking lot. Some vehicle designs simply take one’s breath away. The Shelby Cobra qualifies as one of them. And this Excalibur variation on that theme actually does better. Something about the the added length and width makes a classic even lovelier. (click images for […]
