Streetwalk
Last Fall I would walk the neighborhood with Lola the English Bulldog and my Nikon F100. Every once in a while a scene would appear - or - better said - I would will a scene to be captured. Every photo - every frame - is a stretch of sanity without slapping the shutter release of pure hope something would eventually develop. And develop is correct as I'm shooting film here -- but I'll stop babbling -- this is what I got in the window of the Architectural firm.

the beach in Pentwater
Whew -- it's been awhile...
Time to catch up on some previous images. This was taken this last summer in the western part of the city - toward the West Valley area. There are times when upon driving around you recognize the Sun is just perfect but no camera in hand - so don't forget that time frame and venture back when the conditions repeat - with the camera. I did just that one Saturday evening and was able to capture the color of this scene.
Film.
NO WAKE
The South Pier of Pentwater at about 7am - end of July. Rollei 6008i and self developed and scanned.

Dress Form on Film
An ornamental steel wire dress form transformed by my wife into a living outside ornament. The lower half is stuffed with dirt and the frame is with flowers to bloom throughout the Summer.
It's really quite nice when it all comes together.

Umbrella in the Mist
I really like photos taken in the rain because it is a venue not very much captured -- and as luck would have it we had days and days of rain falling on a Saturday where I could take advantage to shoot. As I was driving downtown - and as if it was planned - here was a colorful umbrella traveling the sidewalk on South Temple Street.
As much as I could - I got head enough in the car in order to pull over to take some frames.
The scene really turned out well - as it was a serendipitous event all coming together. And as much as I hate to say it - photography is all about the Serendipity -- seriously -- If you have the camera you may just come away as being the Rockstar with the one and only image of the event - whatever that may be.

This was a grab shot - and a bit of a surprise at how well it turned out. I couldn't have imagined this result. Geometric patterns are difficult to come by, recognize, and then capture.
