Welcome/Willkommen!

Hello and welcome. Hope you enjoy the images I have posted. Please do not reproduce them without my permission. Most are available as note/greeting cards or as prints/enlargements. Thank you for visiting my site and your comments.
Many have asked about the Header image above, which I named 'Eerie Genny'. It was originally shot with film [taken on the shore of the Genesee River near the Univ. of Rochester]. During the darkroom development, I flashed a light above the tray. The process, known as 'solarization', produces eerie, ghostlike effects; some have mistaken this image as an infra-red photo. Some 35+ years later, I scanned and digitized the print, and did a little modern day editing, and, voila.

Rochester Springtime

Well, what can you say?! Springtime in Rochester offers many surprises. For example:

These are views out the front door this afternoon.

While we are on snow scenes, I think I'll add a few more shots taken over this past winter.

This is the view out our dining room window -- geraniums bloom the year-round.


This is a detail from our magnolia tree after a thick blanketing of snow.


This was shot at the High Falls, near Pont-du-Rennes. The undulating shadows and red benches caught my eye.

This was shot through a rather dirty window from inside the High Falls Gallery. A lucky catch ---

Having shown these, let's turn to warmer thoughts. I'll have to find some relevant pics to post next time.

Hey Stan...I see what you mean about the texture in the photograph of the bricks. A great shot. Could be a book cover. How did you like your visit to Tuscany?

hey 'gtyyup', I was just at your site and could not figure out how to leave a comment on your Blue Reflections pic. It's a real keeper, and it certainly was a reward for all your efforts!!

Hi Stan~Well, that seems odd since my comments are set up just like yours with the pop-up window. The only people who can't leave comments are anonymous users, but you're a blogspot user so you shouldn't have a problem. Try again...let me know exactly what it's doing (or not doing). Glad you liked the Blue Reflections photo...it was a nice surprise that day.
