Coming Soon…
... A complete re-write of the photography website. I moved over from a hosted plan to my own server that allows me to design as wanted. I'm even throwing in an interactive digital darkroom to develop prints on screen.
THE WRITTEN RECORD
Photography
I Made A Zine And A Gif
Apparently I have over 1,700 abstract images from the past few years. Shot on the Hipstamatic camera with a fisheye lens using my own custom film emulations. I call it MojoChrome. All of the images captured are of everyday objects…
I Miss Contact Sheets
I've always loved the smell of toner and fixer solutions inside the dark room developing prints from the film negatives. Then line the negative strips out and develop the contact sheet of all the images on the film roll. Those…
Lightroom. Again.
I know what you are thinking, and you're right. I've oscillated on using Adobe for years. Back and forth On/Off. Shut up. For years, I kept trying to get away from Adobe. The subscription annoyed me. Creative Cloud annoyed me.…
Two New Cases
While strolling around various towns this Labor Day weekend I was thinking I needed a better setup for the iPhone. After research I came across a master grip system that attaches to the phone using MagSafe attachments. The system comes…
The Leica D-Lux
After twenty five years, I can finally say I am the proud owner of a Leica Camera. To be clear, I did not drop the retail price of $2000 on a newer version of my current model. I don't have…

‘Nawlins Neon
A few captures from Rue Bourbon.
108 Exposures
Finally received my Lomography 35 and 110mm film and I am ready to test these out. I have never shot 800 speed and I am looking forward to the colors and contrasts.
Anti-Boring
One of my goals this year is to create images that leave viewers guessing. Or, if nothing else, makes them think. I still haven’t had a chance to work on it but I will. For me, the aesthetic leans towards…
Photography Workflow Using the iPad Pro M1
I had first published this guide in early 2019 in an effort to simplify my post-process photography workflow using the 2018 iPad. After decades of desktop and laptop processing, I wondered if the iPad was a solution for me. Previous…
Intrigue
Something I’ve been wanting to do lately is creating intriguing or compelling photographs. The not-so-obvious images that is designed to make people think. A simple scene that tells a story but leaves the viewer wondering. I have some ideas but…
