Yesterday I was busy preparing a show for my virtual gallery and didn’t get out to shoot anything new. The show is called “New Mexico Swan Song” and is a collection of images shot at El Rancho de las Golondorinos, a living history museum near Santa Fe. Honestly, I processed so many images yesterday I… Continue reading Day 35 – Grist Mill

Day 29 – Rogue River Bridge
One of the unsung wonders of the Oregon Coast is the beautiful bridges that were built in the 1930s to connect the coastal towns and complete Highway 101. This one graces the Rogue River in Gold Beach. I loved the idea of this image when I took it but the result was kind of ho… Continue reading Day 29 – Rogue River Bridge
Day 12 – Flowers at the Farmer’s Market
I got a little sidetracked yesterday but I still have plenty of material from the Farmer’s Market to process so look for a few more before I’m done. Just love the colors in this floral display. I did a basic post processing in color efex pro…. Detail extractor, brilliance warmth, darken/lighten center.
Day 6 – Blueberry Pie
Blueberry Pie for 4th of July. Even at 81 years of age my Mom can’t stop baking. And the blueberries came from her garden. I just thought it made a great subject. I processed it in Nik Color Efex Pro. Added a detail filter, a brilliance warmth emphasizing cool colors, and a slight touch of… Continue reading Day 6 – Blueberry Pie

Sorry to say there will be no image of the week this week. I am up to my eyeballs in moving and have no time for fun things like photography. But come back next Sunday, June 29 because on that day I will be starting a new 100 days project to celebrate my return to… Continue reading The Moving Blues
Cocktails
It was another windy week in Santa Fe and though I tried to photograph some flowers in my yard I didn’t start early enough so had only moderate success in avoiding movement. In anticipation of a trip to Northern Arizona next week I started reviewing some pictures from a previous trip. I had also just… Continue reading Cocktails
Mission San Diego de Alcala
This week I was busy processing the rest of my images from San Diego. It was hard to choose one for image of the week because there were many good ones and also because I am planning to post a show next week in my virtual gallery so I was a little hesitant to steal… Continue reading Mission San Diego de Alcala
Jackrabbit
It has been another week of culling the files and looking for keepers that I could apply new post processing skills to. I came across this handsome fellow at Arches National Park a few years back and was taken by the morning light shining through his ears. The raw image was pretty bland and didn’t… Continue reading Jackrabbit
Fruit Box Label
Well, I dropped the ball last week partly because I couldn’t choose among four images. This week has been busy and not too successful. I spent a little time at the Railroad Museum in Sacramento but I didn’t have enough quarters to feed the parking meter so time was limited. Iike the way this photo… Continue reading Fruit Box Label
