Shack, Aldrich Rd, 2010-02-03
I like taking pictures of … neglect. I don’t like the word neglect, so much, but rather the character a structure expresses after being abandoned to the elements. There’s another shack out on Aldrich Rd that I’ve been meaning to photograph, too. Print version.

Rebar, 2010-02-19
Bob the Build-*cough!* Ahem, ahem! Bob the…get the tune out of my head! Kevin, start whistling, please! I’m going to be building and building…software…but not my sink. This is not a matter of confidence, this is a matter of reliability.

Mt Baker from Aldrich Rd (Panorama) 2010-02-19
Here’s an attempt at making a very wide desktop background: 2560×1024. There are obviously better photos I could have chosen, but this one was recent. I think I need to figure out how to turn my bicycle into a tripod. I could certainly lose the shake, even on a 28mm lens. Feel free to tease…

Tree Sign, Ravenna Park, 2010-02-15
I’ve walked by this sign in Ravenna park for years. I’m guessing it used to be a yield sign. Now it’s a macabre symbol that reminds me much of the art I produced in middle school. Print version.

I was surfing around looking at campsites tonight. Suggestions appreciated. If this February is a sign of what May will be like, I’m all for it. Consider how vivid these blossoms were in January. Any places you like to camp? Please share. This was a brief experiment tonight doing a “dissolve filter” and a mask.…

This banal piece of rugged hardware has a very strong design. This is an experiment to bring out that bold design. If you’d like a bigger file to print out, please ask.

Stones, Squalicum Beach, 2009-01-26
It was cold and rainy. However, I needed to talk a walk. I recall that this walk I had the back of my camera dripping wet from the fog condensing onto my beard. My gloves were soaked, and my jacket sleeves were starting to soak thru into my shirt. But I had my new camera!…

Steam Locomotive, Perris, California, 2008
This was a fun trip, but it was hot and all my photos from there were immensely bright and contrasty. I felt like I spent a small eternity comparing the quality of this photo to other photos of locomotive wheels where the grays were smooth and rich … and it dawned on me that I…

Sweat Pea, Seattle, 2009-07-25
I love the Gimp. Tonight’s experiment was producing good looking newsprint, and using layer masks. I think I’m getting this layer mask technique. If you’d like to get a print of this, please let me know, I’d love to hear from you.
