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.

Santa Fe (i) [Sky Watch Friday]


This year has been a busy time traveling for us [see postings on Morocco and German cities]. However, our latest trip was a domestic one; viz. to Santa Fe, NM. We had stopped there briefly in Aug. 1980, as we were driving back to Rochester after a year long sabbatical in Salt Lake City. Those few days were enough to want to return for a longer stay. For me, the adobe buildings, characteristic of the Southwest, were particularly appealing. Below are several examples of this style. Interesting to note here is that the color of the adobe is, as you might guess, highly dependent on the light.
