Existential Refinement Vol.4

Journal Entry: Sun May 11, 2008, 9:20 AM
Photobucket

Each week (or every couple of weeks - I'm a PhD student and quite busy) I will feature photographs that have a certain existential quality about them.



Existential Refinement Vol.1

Existential Refinement Vol.2

Existential Refinement Vol.3





Some of My Work





About Me

I have been a photographer for over 20 years working with both film and digital images. These days I do my editing in Photoshop CS3. My subject matter varies from landscapes and architecture to nudes. I mostly work in black and white but I have just recently moved into color. I look for light, shadow, texture, shape and form and that certain something that cannot be described. While I do quite a bit of work with set-up and posed shots, I am always on the look out for what I refer to as "the divine moment" when all those things described above come together for one moment in time.

Please comment and/or make suggestions on any of the photographs. I enjoy quality feedback and would love to learn of ways to improve my images.

If you are interested in purchasing any prints, please click on the link below or send me a note if the one you want is not available.

Oh, that's great! You're going to go into social worker production.....

I hear what you're saying about the darkroom, and it's absolutely the best to be able to shoot 400 shots and it costs nothing but your time and disc space to sort them. I've heard Kodak is dropping production of all film except the specialty ones like infrared, but that was a while ago.

I think I'm going to change the framed name to the original name, I was trying to go classy and all that rot...but the first name just fits because everytime I look at it I want to howl, rip and tear. :) I have a few more shots from that series I'll be posting as soon as I have an evening free to work on them. I tossed one out there just to see how it would be received before I worked on the others. So far, so good. But, ya know....I love my work being admired, but I'd rather it generate some cash for me!

And if you do ever decide to move up here, just remember the addage that labels Alaska men: The odds are good, but the goods are odd.

:0* later!
