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.

Ominous Sky Over Salzburg [Sky Watch Friday]


Despite  the ominous dark sky over Salzburg, the sun managed to peek through the cloud cover and illuminate portions of the city, most notably the castle and cathedral. As it turned out, it did not rain, so I was quite happy. Salzburg, Austria, hometown of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, is delightful gem of a little city. And, it is just several hours drive from Munich [München]. So, if you are in the region, you must visit both.

The light spilling selectively over the city looks even more amazing with the contrast of the dark sky behind. Pleased it didn't rain too.....
