5X7 inch collodion negative (on glass), made with my moth-eaten Burke & James Watson, and the Voigtlander Pertzval lens, wide open. Exposure was 45 seconds. Old Workhorse collodion used, about 5 months old. At this point, it has excellent contrast.

Sometimes the coolest spots come to you just by chance. I found this nice rock during a hiking tour two years ago and instantly knew I need to stay there until it's getting dark. I captured multiple images of the foreground and the sky which I tracked with Vixen Polarie.
Later I stacked them to reduce noise and for maximum dynamic range. I don't know why it took me years until I found some time for this complicated processing, but now I'm quite pleased with the result.
The Stargazer lily was created in 1978 by Leslie Woodriff, a lily breeder in California. The plant is an Oriental hybrid lily which Woodriff called "Stargazer," because the blooms faced the sky.

A magical night at Fremont Fire Lookout, Sunrise, Mt. Rainier.
This wonderful lady and her artist daughter were showing at a local art show this past weekend and I could not pass up the opportunity for a shot. Her daughter and her work was every bit as flamboyant as her mother.
A continuation of my self portrait series based around the night sky. I wanted to get out and shoot this earlier but my lack of motivation caused a huge break in my conceptual work, and a huge creative block, but I think I can push myself enough to get through it. Besides, anything that I upload to flickr I end up deleting. This will stay, however.
If you started following my 100 days of documenting project on flickr, I've decided to continue that project on my facebook page, so give it a like and keep up to date with those uploads. I want my flickr account to be for pieces I'm genuinely proud of, such as this.
Thank you all for being so wonderful and supportive, I do appreciate it so much!
I also just realised how much this looks like Sarah's image!

First capture of the new year -- 2014.
Painted and chipped into the soft sandstone cliffs of Sego Canyon are some of the most spectacular examples or rock art in the Southwest. These pictographs are believed to have been created by the Archaic people over 8,000 years ago.
While the age of these ancient drawings may seem impressive, they are actually quite new on a cosmic scale when you consider that the visible light from the stars on this very evening had been traveling for millions, and millions of years.

Lilium 'Stargazer' (the 'Stargazer lily') is a hybrid lily of the 'Oriental group'. Oriental lilies are known for their fragrant perfume, blooming mid-to-late summer. Stargazers are easy to grow and do best in full sunlight.[1] They have a fast growth rate and should be planted in full sun in well-drained loamy or sandy soil. When mature, 'Stargazers' can grow to a height of 36 inches with a spread of 10 to 14 inches with 2 to 8 flowers per stem.
"Developed in the late 1970s as a cross between Lilium auratum and L. speciosum to intentionally create a flower with upward-facing rather than drooping flowers." www.thespruce.com/stargazer-lily-care-and-growing-tips-21...
today two pink stargazer potted oriental lilies bloomed, the last of the lilies
lilies that i planted in pots have flourished but most of those planted in the garden soil were eaten by slugs. next year all the lily bulbs will be in pots. the few that succeeded in the soil this year i'll leave in the soil but no fresh bulbs
