I was just curious as to what a negative image of a peacock would look like. Was it worth it? Original photo by John Ward Kelly IV
This is something to think about when negative people are doing their best to
rain on your parade. So remember this story the next time someone
who knows nothing and cares less tries to make your life miserable.
A woman was at her hairdresser's getting her hair styled for a trip to Rome with
her husband. She mentioned the trip to the hairdresser, who responded:
" Rome ? Why would anyone want to go there? It's crowded and dirty. You're
crazy to go to Rome. So, how are you getting there?"
"We're taking Continental," was the reply. "We got a great rate!"
"Continental?" exclaimed the hairdresser. " That's a terrible airline. Their
planes are old, their flight attendants are ugly, and they're always late.
So, where are you staying in Rome ?"
"We'll be at this exclusive little place over on Rome 's Tiber River called
Teste."
"Don't go any further. I know that place. Everybody thinks it's gonna be
something special and exclusive, but it's really a dump."
"We're going to go to see the Vatican and maybe get to see the Pope."
"That's rich," laughed the hairdresser. You and a million other people trying to
see him. He'll look the size of an ant.
Boy, good luck on this lousy trip of yours. You're going to need it."
A month later, the woman again came in for a hairdo. The hairdresser asked her
about her trip to Rome .
"It was wonderful," explained the woman, "not only were we on time in one of
Continental's brand new planes, but it was overbooked, and they bumped us up to
first class.
The food and wine were wonderful, and I had a handsome 28-year-old steward who
waited on me hand and foot.
And the hotel was great! They'd just finished a $5 million remodeling job, and
now it's a jewel, the finest hotel in the city.
They, too, were overbooked, so they apologized and gave us their owner's suite
at no extra charge!"
"Well," muttered the hairdresser, "that's all well and good, but I know you
didn't get to see the Pope."
"Actually, we were quite lucky, because as we toured the Vatican, a Swiss Guard
tapped me on the shoulder, and explained that the Pope likes to meet some of the
visitors,
and if I'd be so kind as to step into his private room and wait, the Pope would
personally greet me.
Sure enough, five minutes later, the Pope walked through the door and shook my
hand! I knelt down and he spoke a few words to me."
"Oh, really! What'd he say ?"
He said: "Who fucked up your hair?"
Nairobi 1972 I was going through some negatives today and found some images I don't recall ever seeing before.

Recently found a batch of old negatives. I have no idea who these people are or where they were taken. I'm slowly digitizing them.

This was taken with ilford SFX film, no filter. I played around with chemical negative destruction (no stop bath) during development as well as very long fixing times. Taken with a pentax 35mm camera.
From the tessellation exposition in Brazil earlier this summer. Folded for the NYC convention last June. One of my favorite patterns, and one of the folding techniques I am the most pleased with.
This week: Playing with negative space, i.e. the visual space around the main subject of the image. How do the elements relate to each other? How does negative space augment the expression of the positive space? Can negative space support or destroy the story of the subject? How does structure/colour/form of negative space impact on the image?

Reclaimed negative from Fuji FP100-C instant film sheet.
Had just binned most of the peel off parts to the instant film sheets, thinking they were useless, but had kept a bunch for some reason, then found various youtube vids explaining the process of reclaiming the negative using bleach. (I would point out that you should ensure you are doing this process in a well ventilated area, as the fumes were nasty, and wear gloves when using the bleach....have seen vids with people just using their bare hands!).
These didn't work out perfectly, but I'd have been disappointed if they had - I like the random blobs/colours etc!
Sculpture in Lake Ballard, a salt pan in the W Australian goldfields, a UK sculptor, Anthony Gormley, was commissioned to do a sculpture to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Perth festival. He took casts of the naked bodies of 53 people who live in the settlement of Menzies nearby and made them into cast-iron sculptures which he placed in Lake Ballard. It has become a popular travel destination since inhabitants of W Australia have had to travel locally during Covid.
I have been torn on how to go about this challenge ..... So many ideas and none were working. Tonight I decided to go out on my deck with hopes of catching a late day bird or some other critter to use and isolate..... but then realized the first Maple Leafs of the year are just starting to pop out. So i went with it.
