I almost threw these away, because I wasn’t satisfied with what came out. And then, at the last moment, I fished the film out of the garbage and scanned the negatives anyway. This is a testament to never giving up, and trying to get something out of nothing. Background. What you see on the left…

My Spectrum 8 Theater Art Show starts Wednesday, please come and see it!
I can’t believe it’s been two years since the last time I had a solo art show. And now I’m doing it again. Starting tomorrow, and running until July 7, the Spectrum 8 theater on Delaware Avenue in Albany will host several of my art pieces in their theater lobby. The artworks, which includes the…
Read MoreK-Chuck Radio: For Those Who Served
Today I have a very special K-Chuck Radio, seeing as it’s Memorial Day and all. The songs in today’s blog-cast were inspired by those who have served in conflicts foreign and domestic. So as we remember those who served, and those who gave, let’s also remember them in song and in melody. Including… THE MILLS…
Read MoreOne more “swimming in the pond” picture…
I know, I know, you’re getting sick of these “swimming in the pond” shots. But I’m not getting sick of trying to get an image with this infrared Aerochrome film. So last week, I caught this picture in Washington Park – two geese and three little goslings (no, I don’t know if the little ones’…
Read MorePaul Bunyan says, “C’mere.”
This was one of my shots that I’m contemplating putting in the “short pile” for competition season. This is one of my Aerochrome photos, and it was taken in Lake George at the Magic Forest amusement park.

Vivaldi’s Pond
It’s Sunday morning. Any Sunday morning. I look outside my window. The weather is cold and miserable. It’s windy and it’s snowing. It’s overcast and humid. It’s rainy and drizzly.

It’s one of those mornings when I want to get up, go outside, take a deep breath of clean air – and then run back into the house, saying, “Good Lord in the sky, it’s freakin’ freezing outside!!” Yeah. 41 degrees this morning. In late May. Well, if I’m going to stay indoors until the…
Read MoreJust outside of Stonersville… no, really…
The Pennsylvania trip yesterday was a lot of fun. I did get a chance to drive through some beautiful, bucolic, pastoral locations, and on the recommendation of one of my closest friends, I was directed to look for a certain barn. “This would be a great barn for your photo competitions,” she said to me. …

A little scrapple in the morning
Yesterday I did a road trip to south central Pennsylvania – it was a combination “photo day” and “getaway day” and “pickup day” (I acquired a super-swank Dream Window frame that was too delicate to ship). Before I left the region, I stopped at a local grocery store and purchased a few regional foods –…
Read MoreWatery waterfowl: or, “A Pair o’ Dux”
Sunday morning. I should be sleeping right now. I should be rolling over and slapping the alarm clock for daring to wake me up on a day of rest. And yet, I’m driving over to Washington Park. For some reason, this warm weather has drawn several waterfowl to the lake at Washington Park – ducks…
