Photos by Stan: Sky Watch Friday: Aruba Skies

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.

Sky Watch Friday: Aruba Skies

In my last posting three weeks ago, I indicated that I would resume with shots from a trip we took to Greece in 2005. After returning from vacationing in Aruba, to the bitter cold of Rochester, NY, I have reconsidered. I think that looking at images of sun, sand and sea is what I need to do at this time; so, Greece can wait another week. [NOTE: Somewhere buried in my blog archives are other shots from Aruba, an island we have been visiting for more than 20 years. I apologize if any of the images below bear any similarity to earlier images. Having said that, here are my newest (cell phone) shots.] Immediately below is a pair of the famous Divi trees; they have been bent in the direction that the trade wind blows.
