My Latest Images

A look at what I have been doing within the last year

Anything goes as long as it is new

Each day is a new challenge

With over 50 years of creating images, it is at times challenging to come up with something new, something different. This is my challenge each day and each day something presents itself for my consideration. The images on this page represent what has presented most recently. It shows the direction I am looking and suggests what might present in the future. Many of these images will disapear. Some will eventually land in a different gallery. I hope you enjoy what you see here.

Conversations

Today, Susan and I spent the evening talking with a passionate young lady who is getting into photography. She shared what her mentor has been telling her and listened to what we had to say. Much of it was contradicting. Her mentor has been telling her to under expose...

Long lens or macro

For most of photographic life I have used extension tubes or very long lenses for closeup and macro work. The concept of having a dedicated macro lens was foreign to me. It seemed an unnecessary luxury. When I transitioned to OM Sytems the lenses included not just...
