Great photography requires dedication, time and effort.
But above all there are costs involved as well.
Equipment, props and model fees, not to mention time,
are all "out-of-pocket" expenses for the artist.

I have always loved the pace of a Sunday morning but living in North Carolina has redefined that feeling for me in the best of ways. A slow start that really never gets going unless it's to boil some Blue Crab and enjoy some libations. Good times!
Sorry! I didn't even try to resist this groaner.The original photo was of a Collectivo Guatemala coffee bean bag. The bird is a Quetzal.
Photofox Teacup component was used to create this image.

This series has arisen from my daily dog walks and seeing how people are reacting and making changes in my suburb due to the distancing and isolation laws and making stories of things I see.

Happy Wednesday Flickr! This is a repair to an underexposed photo caused by a misfire of our off camera lighting. One side of the images was almost black and the other side was underexposed. But, I really loved Melissa's pose and with a little Photoshop "love" this is the end result. I like it but wanted to ask you - what do you think?
This is Dry Creek Falls out in the Gorge. I had been to this falls once before and made a return trip earlier this year, though I just finally got around to scanning that roll of film.
It is interesting, the more landscape photography I do and see, the less and less I like the "perfect" style of landscape photography. I find myself wanting to veer more and more from that well beaten trail, partially because it is so well beaten. But also partially because I like to work with the unpredictable, and I like the unpredictable because I like to be surprised, photographically speaking that is. So I find myself pulling and tweaking at the edges of what is considered technically sound and/or perfect, looking for those gray areas where chance and serendipity are allowed larger roles.
I won't say that I am a master of imperfection, I am certainly still learning a lot about it, about flares and light leaks, pinholes and Holgas, expired film and the like. But I will say that I am not afraid of imperfect photos or creating them, that I allow the flexibility of mind and imagination to realize that an imperfection can sometimes be more perfect than what was previously defined as perfection. How is that for a mind bender. :-p
So yeah, don't be afraid to shoot into the sun and get flare, to use sub-standard or primitive lenses, to misexpose and have soft images. Don't be afraid to challenge your assumptions of what perfection in photography is and to have the imagination to redefine them to work for you, not you meekly following them along.
Two side notes. I am done scanning California images, posting will commence shortly for those of you who have been waiting on them. I just wasn't in the right frame of mind to start this afternoon.
Second, I am all done teaching for the Summer (almost). I have classes for Newspace scheduled for both Fall and Winter (four each) and Exposure Northwest will be announcing our 2011 schedule within the coming week or two. If you have been one of those interested, I will be updating my website with a full list of all of those, as there will be plenty to choose from. :-)
Let's redefine what a snowflake looks like. This particular crystal is outside the limits of what our imagination usually conjures when we think of snowflakes. You'll see plenty of odd features when you zoom in, but it's still a snowflake!
Column-style snowflakes don't usually get too large, but sometimes the conditions that favour their growth stay stable and can create larger specimens. This column has a very special additions however, in the form of additional columns growing perpendicular from the main one! How cool is that?
The "baby" columns appear to be growing in a similar way to frost. This crystal seems to differ from the examples I have for "multiple capped columns" which extrude plates from the sides, not additional columns. It does look similar to crystals photographed by Ken Libbrecht and others, but definitely carries a few questions I don't yet have answers to.
One interesting feature is the possible presence of multiple evaporation grooves. These are lines that run perpendicular to the length of the main column, barely visible along the edge. These occur when "crystal twins" are connected in a hexagonal column structure but appear rotated by a multiple of 60 degrees. They look fine, but this rotation creates weaker molecular bonds at the point of rotation which allows for some water to evaporate in this area - making a barely noticeable line or groove. I've seen these before quite commonly, but I've never seen more than one on the same crystal. Two can easily be seen, and there might even be a third. This snowflake is proving to be quite the enigma!
You might also notice the "antenna" growing out of the ends of some columns. These are pretty common on needle-type crystals where the ends will split and the corners will grow faster. The same happens with plate-type snowflakes when they grow branches; these antenna are "branches" for column crystals.
I'm sure there will be more surprises before winter is over, but this was a fun one to discover. :) Oh, and plenty of other fun mysteries explained in the Sky Crystals book: skycrystals.ca/
