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.

Urban Reflections

  I think most photographers enjoy shooting images that contain interesting reflections, be they of the sun/moon/sky/clouds on water, or of people/objects/animals off some reflective surface. I am certainly in that group; and I am always on the lookout for opportunities to make a good capture. My photog group was charged last month with submitting three images that could comprise a 'mini'-portfolio; viz. they had to be connected by something in common. The results were fascinating, to say the least. It was really a blast to see such creativity -- so many shots I wish I had thought of!! Anyway, I am posting my contribution below. Previously in this blog, I have posted isolated images with reflections, but never in a group like this. These pics were shot in downtown Rochester [the top one was posted previously as a color image.] I hope you like them.
