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.

Rochester Skies [Sky Watch Friday]

Quite a few folks have posted wonderful SWF images shot with their cell phones. They deserve special recognition considering how difficult it can be sometimes to even see anything [except one’s reflection] on the screen. Those occasions really give meaning to ‘point-and-shoot’ [and hope for the best]. I’ve experienced that myself. But, with the right light, seeing and composing a shot is feasible. The sunset [top image] was shot under such favorable conditions. The two morning shots were taken with my DSLR camera.
