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.

Petunias [Today's Flowers]


Sunday's flower market never ceases to please.  I wandered into a sea of petunias and did not know which way to turn and shoot -- "a monkey with a camera could have gotten a good pic' -- lol --

What a fun composition! The white hangers are like swans or ladies in their finery.
Nice capture!

Fabulous array of colors here and petunias do thrive in bright sunlight. They are what I call "happy" flowers.

Bises,

Your photos on Today's Flowers are just lovely. The Japanese anemone is especially lovely. But I disagree that anyone could have gotten a good shot in the petunias. Takes a good eye, my friend!
