BODIE IN COLOR

The Same Image of Bodie, but in Color

I am torn as to which version I think is more successful. I think that the context of how the images are presented will determine that for me. What I mean, is that if I were installing an exhibit on the subject of Bodie, than I believe that the images should all be either black and white or all color. If the images are presented individually than it could be either.

PROCESSING

Bodie

I am still processing both my experiences from my recent trip to the east-side of the Sierra and to Death Valley, and my images. I have them all downloaded into the computer, and so far, I am pleased with what I see. Thus far, I have only done some preliminary rendering of a few choice images. It may take awhile, but I realize that I have some keepers in the batch of images.

I apologize for the quality of the images as they show here. I do limit the fidelity of the images that I post either here or on Face Book. My primary intent for my images is that they be viewed on paper. I use these sites to show previews of what I am working on, but they prints have a substantially different aesthetic.

A REAL PIECE OF WORK (If I May Say So)

Asphalt Dancer, 2013

A print of this image is hanging in the Morris Graves Museum of Art in Eureka. I am receiving lots of positive feedback on the image. I took it is September while a crew was doing some improvements on our road.

I doubt that candy will appease these critters. Perhaps rain, sunshine and some nitrogen would.

A COUPLE OF DAYS AT PRAIRIE CREEK STATE PARK

Like me, a Work in Progress

I camped at Elk Prairie Campground for a couple of days. It was foggy, damp and cool - perfect for the redwoods, and perhaps for my photography. My images are still downloading from the cards, but this image caught my attention. I took it yesterday.

FULL MOON ON TOP OF THE WORLD

Full Moon Rising Over Snow Camp

I took this photograph this evening up on top of Kneeland. I drove there  via the "Jack Rabbit" or Fickle Hill Road. I took several images that I think fulfill the  vision that I was attempting create.
