The pictures in the folder Nine Emotions are from when I had the Original 9 pick what the considered what were the best representations of each of the 9 emotions from THE 9 EMOTIONS PROJECT. I didn’t say that they had to use everybody once. I put no limits on… Read More »Nine Emotions
The pictures in the folders 2011-04-12 & 2011-04-16 are of two varieties. One set will no doubt be very confusing to you. 98% (probably higher) will think that those picture are rubbish. They are more pinhole camera pictures. It has been months since I published pinhole camera pictures. What sets… Read More »2011-04-12 & 2011-04-16
As I’ve indicated before, the 2011 folders are a disaster. These images cover most of the March 2011 folders.

By adding… Read More »March Misc.

The images in the folder 2011-02-09 are actually taken on film. They are double exposures. I love double exposures. Yes, you can certainly fake double exposures with Photoshop and some digital cameras will do them. In fact, I need to get back into that. In fact, I need to run… Read More »2011-02-09

When we left off, I had just won 1st Place in Black and White and 3rd Place in Color at the Pufferbilly Days Photo Contest, but had been completely rejected by the Iowa State Fair for the 4th year in a row. Whatever I was selling, the judges were not… Read More »My (Sad) Photo Contest History – 2

The pictures in the folders 2010-03-01 and 2010-03-04 are mostly from some pictures I took for the Computer Mine newsletter and for Personal Photo Project #10. That PERSONAL PHOTO PROJECT was to take a picture of Jill’s foot and place it behind a window. Sadly, the resulting piece of work… Read More »2010-03-01 & 2010-03-04
