this photo is actually after the KT turns off of Guyan Ck, but is here to represent the long strech of old county road that the Trace follows in Mason County
It was raining and snowing at the same time like never before. Temperature was around zero. We went without certain plan along Church Street, when I saw this wall.
I have to admit that I've always loved such views. It happens a lot in Europe when new development starts within old town but not here in Toronto... Because there is no such thing ... like old town, hehe :)
So I took a picture and than add some drama by inverting colors and playing with layers in PS
I've been studying rock and other natural surfaces for a long time. I try to produce a "random" style in my shapes and their surfaces, and this series seems to show that I've accomplished what I'm after. The "beauty" of these pieces is perhaps up to debate, but I think at least I've accomplished an effect that transcends the human touch. There is little evidence here of "my" work or my imposition of form or surface on the natural ingredients.

Current project for a late model Trace Elliot AH300 SMC. Normally very reliable but they do have their own issues once they get to a certain age. This one was a rehearshal studio amp and had basically been played to death, while suffering from previous sub standard repairs. A blown mosfet output board needed stripped and rebuilt. The fan circuit was unrepairable so was removed completely, and a new mains powered fan fitted. Now working great and sounding very fine.
Toward the end of the day, Matthew & Trace decided to chase each other around my apartment with wheeled toys. Matthew has a walker that he got for Christmas last year and Trace has the "popper" Matthew got on his vacation with Nana & Papa.
