Upcoming Black & White Magazine Portfolio Publication!
I have finally received notice from Black & White Magazine of the date of publication of my Neo-Topographic portfolio. It will eventually appear in the April 2019 issue…
Upside Down Reflections
Conventional photographic wisdom (whatever that might be) says to be very careful about deliberately displaying a photograph upside down from its original orientation. Why? Well, the thinking goes that it can come off as gimmicky…
More Late Summer Reflections at Sawhill Ponds
Once again, a late afternoon solo stroll through Sawhill Ponds Wildlife Preserve, near Boulder, Colorado.
Once again, reflecting on life…love…destiny…
Colorado Cloudscapes
Out and about this morning on the Davidson Mesa Open Space in Louisville, Colorado in hopes of photographing a near full Moon setting behind the Flatirons at sunrise.
In the end, it was more about the clouds–with apologies to Alfred Stieglitz and his “equivalents“…photographs that might represent an inner state, emotions, or ideas…
My “Neo-Topo” Project Continues into 2018 (Dacono, CO)
Here is a third, recent (August 25) photo essay to add to my “Neo-Topo” portfolio.
The location this time? In and around the little-but-bustling burg of Dacono, Colorado, just west of I-25…on the plains, but with great views to the west of the big Front Range peaks…
My “Neo-Topo” Project Continues into 2018 (Longmont, CO)

My “Neo-Topo” Project Continues into 2018 (Frederick, CO)
Being back in Colorado temporarily has given me an opportunity to go back out to those areas of Boulder County and Weld County that are rapidly being undeveloped (sic) into suburbia.
From Great Plains to Great Shames. (Yes, I’m a hypocrite. I grew up and have lived in suburbia myself.)
It has been a year since my last visit out here and the developers have been as busy as the proverbial honey bees of summer…
How To Kiss a Frog Sans Telephoto Lens
Here is a good example of how you can use the extra megapixels of the Nikon D850 (or any other high MP camera) to turn your relatively short walk-around lens into a much longer telephoto lens–and move in close enough to give a froggy a kiss…
Reflections on Reflections
Nothing like a quiet, solo walk at Walden Ponds Wildlife Habitat to bring on the reflections.
Emotional and cerebral (ephemeral?) reflections on life and on what the future might hold…
The Nikon D850: My Last DSLR?
I have been thinking, after this most recent purchase*, that I will likely never buy another big, heavy, expensive, DSLR camera again. (Of course, never say “never”, right?)
