I am traveling today so thought I would post a link to the postcards I have been capturing and archiving for the past few months.

Some of these postcards along with a collection of 'platinum over gold leaf' images will be shown in Indianapolis, Indiana opening on November 18 (details shortly).

Stay tuned....

Edinburgh, Scotland

I guess this is a church image weekend...This one captured from my hotel room window in Edinburgh.

Mystical Creature

Flipping through the files today and this image caught my attention. This was an image from the Everglades trip earlier this year.

When I first returned from the Everglades I had been working on this image but stopped as I could not get the image in my head to match the one on the screen. Funny how that seems to happen over and over with ones work. You think it does not work and weeks, months later it takes on new meaning.

I seem to gravitate to water locations and had spent several days at this one - the structure of the rocks against the water kept drawing me back in and finally on the third day all the elements came together for this image. It was like being allowed to enter some mystical prehistoric parallel world.

Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes...

'No matter how slow the film, Spirit always stands still long enough for the photographer It has chosen'......Minor White

Last Week

Bridge - Pittsburgh

The past 4 days have been a blur - finished up work in Yakima on Friday - flew to Pittsburgh on Saturday for a Sunday Wedding and then back to New York this morning.....

JM - Washington, PA

Along the way I captured several IPhone images and am posting them all today.

Good Morning Pittsburgh

Home for a week then off to the west coast...somewhere along the line I thought I had retired...

The image in the header is a re-worked Iceland Waterfall...

Urban Waterfall

MIssoula

Captured this image on the way to the Missoula airport a few days ago. Decided to leave it straight ahead - well sort of - but I did drop the grunge look this time.
