A man who has passed through many interiors both physical and spiritual in his life beginning in 1958, mostly in California, but also North Carolina, Greece, and Croatia.
Resident in a condo with my wife and three cats, two of which are polydactyl.
Known as EmperorNorton on Twitter.
I use a Nikon d70, a Nikon 8008, a Coolpix B500, a Coolpix W150, Samsung A50 camera phone, a Lomography La Sardina, and a Lomography Fisheye No. 2. Thinking long and hard about purchasing a Seagull or Lubitel TLR. (Started out in a square format shooting Kodak 126 film.)
"If you want to follow someone whose techniques and subject matter are consistent, my stream will disappoint you."
"Hard for me to work in a world where thumbnails count for so much. It's like choosing the best poem based on the first word."
"Most people try to photograph the thing as it is always photographed. I try to find ways in which a thing can be photographed anew."
"The natural land I live in turns brown for two thirds to three-quarters of the year. The challenge is to find color that the fruit-loving monkey-brains who look at my photos will find palatable."
" The camera is of secondary importance: learning what it can do is key."
If you're in the area, I love to go on photo walks.
Philosophy of pool management: Be clear about what is acceptable. Be merciful towards those who make honest mistakes. Encourage.
Check out my many albums.
I don't mind you posting your photos to my contributions as long as they are pertinent and small.
If you want to guarantee that I favorite your photos, favorite some of mine on a regular basis.
