Yesterday I talked about my visit to Chester’s Garage to meet the owner, Bill Chester.  Today I’m posting a detail from his garage featuring one of his vintage restored Fords with his antique gas station storefront in the background.  Not much else to say today, but I’ll be back tomorrow with some more shots of Bill. 5D […]

This is Bill Chester, the second subject for a community art project that artist Barbara Dahlstedt is working on (the “Myriah” images were the first).  As before, Dahlstedt was commissioned to do a portrait of a community member and she invited me along as a second photographer so that she could gather source materials for her portrait. […]

Here’s another orphan image I’ve had sitting on the hard drive for awhile. I wasn’t sure what to do with it for quite some time but I thought this would be a good time to post it and continue the geometric theme of my recent posts.  This image comes from West Fork Trail, just north of Sedona […]

This image was almost part of my Abstract Architecture series but didn’t quite seem to fit with the others somehow.  I still like the image, even if it is an orphan.  The title comes from my friend and fellow photography enthusiast, Phillip Swan; I posted this image on Facebook and he responded with the caption “hot wash” which […]

The ninth image I have stored up for this abstract architecture series (see THIS post for the series introduction) is called Tiki.  This is the last image of the series I have in my current portfolio but I’ve enjoyed it too much to call it done.  I’m sure I’ll continue to create more images of this style in the future. This one […]

The eighth image in my abstract architecture series is called Ribs (see THIS post for series intro).  I saw this building while driving to a friend’s home in downtown Phoenix to deliver a print.  I wandered around on ground level trying to find a composition that I liked and I couldn’t figure it out; there […]

Here is the sixth image from my abstract architecture series (see THIS post for the series introduction).  I’ve titled this one, Web.  While studying this building and figuring how I wanted to abstract it I decided that the thing I liked most about it were the strong vertical lines and the semicircle loop pattern going up, […]

On to the fifth image of my abstract architecture series (see THIS post for the series introduction) I am calling this one Sky Diving Board.  Why? My friend and co-worker, Denise was telling me that she liked one of my images and was describing it to me as “the one with the diving board sticking out between […]

This is the fourth image in my abstract architecture series (see THIS post for the series introduction).  I’ve been racking my brain on this one for a couple weeks and I just can’t come up with a title for it.  Nothing comes to mind (meaning my mind doesn’t draw any imagery associations) even though I really do […]

Continuing with my new abstract architecture series (read the introductory post HERE) I have titled this one “Owl” because… well, that’s what I see when I look at it! I must have snapped dozens of frames at this location because I was really drawn to the curved lines and forms and really wanted to make something of […]
