October 23rd, 2009Interactive Camera — experiment with manual settings, online
August 31st, 2009So, you’re new to manual photography, or just bored at your desk, thinking how you’d rather be out taking photos. Well, this isn’t quite the same but it is pretty cool for learning more about your cameras features: shutter speeds, aperture, lenses, etc. You can change the settings on the camera and the image is altered to reflect the change in settings.

Blackbird, fly Twin Lens Reflex (TLR) camera
July 30th, 2009If you haven’t seen it yet, you need to check out the (relatively) new twin lens reflex “toy” camera from Superheadz. It’s made of plastic, like the classic Diana and Holga cameras that have such a cult following in the photography world. But being a TLR is has two lenses — one for taking the photograph and the other for the waist-level viewfinder. Behind this second lens is a mirror at a 45-degree angle (hense the term ‘reflex’ in the name) reflecting light towards the top of the camera to the screen where you can view your subject. Some of the most popular twin lens reflex cameras are/were made by Rolleiflex and Yashicamat, among others.
Anyway, the Blackbird, fly is a really cool camera, especially for it’s price (just over $100). More info at BlackbirdFlyCamera.com

Partly Sunny Skies – Pinhole Diptych
November 29th, 2007Another one of my first darkroom prints from my Zero Image pinhole 6×9. When I saw the negatives the frames were overlapping and appeared to be an accidental diptych that was meant to be.
Shot at the Columbia River, Portland.

Sheep Urinates In Public
November 27th, 2007Hah! I got an email recently from Schmap!! Auckland. They were inquiring about using one of my photos taken in Auckland earlier this year for their maps. It turned out that the one they wanted was of a sheep peeing. I found it really funny. It’s hard to tell with the photo this small, but it’s here in the upper right. Or here’s a bigger version:
