Recent photographs & notes Duck and Croc December 17, 2008 This is a close up of sycamore wood. About 25' came off the top of the sycamore tree in our back yard in a storm in September. We cut it up ourselves with manual tools, allowing time for pattern studies. P. F. Kluge, author portrait November 17, 2008 The New York Times reviewed the book Gone Tomorrow by Kluge. I took the portrait last year for the book's jacket cover. I don't know how long the link will be valid, but for now, click here for the review. Popeye and Nemo October 10, 2008 This is part of peeling paint in the Distillery District in Toronto. Most, but not all, of the buildings have been restored. Clarksdale Wall July, 2008 We went to Arkansas to visit Bill's aunt, cousins and family farm. On the way, we drove through the Mississippi Delta and the delta in Arkansas. The theme was small towns. Most of the towns have seen better days and I was hooked on the building walls. This one is in Clarksdale, Mississippi. Ed's Cellar July, 2008 On Bill's family farm in Arkansas. Tenants Harbor June, 2008 This is along the coast of Maine. In addition to shooting the traditional coastal scenes, lighthouses and lobster boats I was influenced as I read the book The Country of the Pointed Firs written by Sarah Orne Jewett in the late 19th century. Mustard in Napa February, 2008 I got obsessed with the mustard in bloom in the wine country. Delaware, Ohio October, 2007 Walking the town looking for lines, shapes and shadows. Canine Companions for Independence September, 2007 A friend invited me to watch and photo one of the training events. See CCI for more photos and a link at the top of the page to the CCI home page. Check back soon. I just started this page and hope to work my way backwards with my favorite photo from each event and trip in the last few years. |
