Desks and their accompanying chairs lay strewn about an abandoned classroom, many of them stacked upon one another just as they were when they were left there just shy of a decade ago on the afternoon of March 22, 2021, in the abandoned Pound, VA, high school.
What lies next is a voice kept quiet. I often imagine I'm talking to myself, at times or in places like these. But I can't be sure what mumbling I'm making, while the birds and bugs have thoughts of their own. It's a kind of competition I suppose, some sort of whisper between strangers to see who gets to the point first. The wildlife sticks to territorial disputes and mating calls, and I'm just here with what's existential. Last bright words before the black, stacked up shadows that gather into one big blanket falling. There's a cool coming and feel it on my shoulders, warm earth still rising through my feet. I let it in, and it lets me.

in this view of the gold and black plume agate, you can see the end from where I took off the polished nub I first uploaded the photograph of on Dec. 22nd. On the damaged, outside edge, I had spotted the faint outline of a plume-like structure, which is why I decided to pick it up and keep it. It certainly was not a very pretty or impressive looking specimen, but I just had a feeling it might be something good.
This photo was shot from a suburban city setting! Its a Median Stack of 58 10 sec Canon 5D Mark II photos, pushed ISO 6400, using a 50mm 1.4 @ f/2 on a clear, freezing night with good seeing (and no moon) for ultimate light sensitivity. Isn't it amazing just how many stars are out there? The center star is the North Star aka Polaris. I originally shot this series as a timelapse for this piece: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jT8AIcpjU58
Test swatch for color stacked Jempool Scarf (Color stacking 101 with slip stitch crochet for class topic: Stitch Games (Wed. July 13, 6-9pm in Charleston SC).
there's something almost post-apocalyptic about this photo for me...
in any case, lets hope the apocalypse can wait because today i am heading down to san jose, ca. shawn's parents are down there, so we are going to visit and for some business: he's playing in a charity golf tournament on saturday and i am running in the silicon Valley 1/2 marathon on sunday.
while shawn is golfing on saturday, i am heading to san francisco to see the richard avedon exhibit and to meet suz or sooze. I believe that rebecca is joining us too. so excited to meet more flickr buds! :-)
Applictions stack of the WIP Carton Box Stack Icons Set
*fine tuned the carton box. Sorry for deleted the previous picture, as there's some error occurred on Flickr.
These berries are about pencil size and are fully encapsulated in ice. This is a six image stack for depth of field.
This idea is not mine, although these stacks are. I got the idea from a site called the Rainbow Elephant. I think it is really fun to do, and easy. I will load up the instructions if anyone asks.
a present to me from me. the kids can 'have turns'...but...uh...it's mine :^)
Plan Toys: Stacking Tree

This one is three separate boxes that stack on top of each other to make a trinket box tower of sorts :-) Each box is 85 mm (3.5") diameter by 45 mm (1.8") deep. The top two boxes each have a foot ring that sits inside the previous box preventing them from sliding about. The bottom box has a flat base which is why it appears shorter in the third pic. Overall height when stacked, including the lid is 155 mm (6.1"). The shiny finish is achieved with liquid Kato, a method taught to me by Debbie Crothers.
From this impressive snow and ice stack, our friend Rachel has clearly been told not to step more on her left, even if the view on the valley of Chamonix is is completely amazing :-)
At this location, she sees our rope squad (cordée) and we're also on ridge.
The Vallée Blanche is one of my favorite walks within these 4 days alpinism initiation on the mountains. Since that day, I definitely know that I not subject to vertigooooo!
And doesn't neceserly require a jump (you know, the lack of atmosphere :P)
another neat trick from the magic lantern firmware replacement.
focus stacking.
I couldn't get this to work at first, but it turns out that you have to have the camera in live view before the feature will activate. I never would have persevered, but one of my flickr contacts got it to work, so I knew it must be possible. it's always easier to figure out something you know is possible.
this is about 42 exposures processed through Helicon Focus. it's a pretty nice program that comes with a 30 full feature trial. I think it's about $50 to buy, and I'd think about it.
I used a 100mm f2.8 canon macro lens and focused it in front of the coin and then stepped through the focus range until just past the coin. not sure if it's a feature or a side effect, but helicon seems to have picked out the subject and left some blur on the background, including a 'frame' of sorts around the whole image (which I cropped out)(but you can still see some of the blur behind the coin).
