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.

The Great Pumpkin Parade [Orange You Glad It's Friday]

I thought that I was beginning to run out of potential OYGIF postings until I began noticing numerous photo ops, as well as pics already in my archive.  So, for the moment, I am already amply stocked well into 2014. In keeping with the season, I’ve named the pic below, The Great Pumpkin Parade. It looks like these guys are fleeing en masse [to escape being carved up, no doubt]. I shot this last year at our Farmers’ Market. I liked the lighting/shadows, the contrast in texture  between the bricks and pumpkins, and their parade-like arrangement. Happy Halloween!!

It really looks like a mass migration of pumpkins! You're right: they know what would happen otherwise. ;-)
Great shot, Stan!

It looks as though they have sprouted little legs and are waddling off into a future where there is no Halloween.

I missed getting a pumpkin this year, but I got several pies to enjoy, skipping all of the work in between. - Margy
