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.

Austin, TX Reflections [Sky Watch Friday]


In Oct. 2010, we visited friends who had moved to Austin, TX. We were quite amazed at how much the landscape reminded us of upstate NY. It was green, hilly and abounded with flowers - no tumbleweeds or Stetson hats to be seen -- LOL. On a walk from the UT, I caught this view. Now I just love reflections and silhouettes, so I had to stop and shoot---glad I did.


Still in Texas, we were driving back to Austin from a day trip in San Antonio. I was sitting 'shotgun' and couldn't help noticing the sky in the sideview mirror. Had to shoot it!! I apoligize for the funky way my captions (mis)align under my images. They look good while I am typing, but go astray when I click on Publish Post -- I welcome any helpful suggestions.

No helpful suggestions, Stan. I get misalignments all the time with Blogger, especially photos moving up and down when I want them to stay put.
I think skies are wonderful when reflected like these. Gorgeous Sky Watch shots!
