At some point during December, a friend on Facebook challenged me to one of those things where you post a black and white photo each day for five days, tagging a different friend each time. I’ve been getting back into black and white photography more and more, so this was a fun exercise. Here areContinue reading “black and white challenge”

bridges
So we just got back from our annual road trip down the west coast and back, and I decided to amuse myself on the drive by taking photos of the various bridges we went over (or under, or past), from the Astoria-Megler Bridge over the Columbia to the Golden Gate, with all the little streamContinue reading “bridges”
winter skies
Happy New Year! Don’t forget that tonight is the downtown Bellingham artwalk, and I’ll be at my studio from 6pm until around 9. Stop by, say hi, get your picture taken!

a day in the city
I’ve fallen woefully behind with my photography – at least, there are plenty of pictures on my computer but I keep not getting around to posting them anywhere. Here are a few images I took in Seattle a few weeks ago – we went into town for my birthday and took the monorail from downtownContinue reading “a day in the city”
playing with fire
A campfire at dusk is a fun subject for playing around with exposure times.
