people no. 20 (x2)

Cant decide which one I like better, so I'll just put both of them out and see what the occassional passer-by (if there are any) has to say. I prefer this one (I love the gigantic glass of tea),but my daughter prefers this one.

If this had been done physically, with negatives, I wouldnt have had this choice because I would have had to cut one of the negatives to make the multi-frame. Much as I prefer optical photography, I have to admit that this is a great advantage to digital.

Been two years now since he died. Still wierd, though.

multiframe no. 17

the Mittens
This image is one of my great frustrations. I originally shot this image at Monument Valley National Park during a trip I made in '99. I had no access to either a 6cm scanner or a color darkroom at the time, but I did have a minilab and access to a flatbed scanner. So I made prints with the minilab, then scanned them on the flatbed, then assembled the image in Photoshop. This was at the same time that I made this image. Since then, at various times, I have lost the original negatives (crisp, beautiful things made with my Rolleiflex), the prints made from them, the zip disk containing the scans made of the prints, and recently, the CD containing the file of this image here. All I have left are a few rather dusty prints.

Apparently, I've got a trip west to make again.

landscape no. 10


I never noticed this before, but the image looks a bit like a stylized skull. Weird.
