Rayko Plastic Camera Show

   My friend Stuart made it to the Rayko Plastic Camera Show in San Francisco and took some photos of the show.  You can see my images (bottom left in both images.)  I wish I could have gone myself but it is not in the cards (or my budget) this year.  It looks like there are a lot of fantastic images.

Rayko Plastic Camera Show

   The Rayko Plastic Camera Show in San Francisco is coming up on January 18th!  I had two images accepted this year.  I heard the opening last year was very well attended with over 400 people!
   This image was shot this fall outside of Portland Oregon at a Cross Crusade Cyclocross Race.  We have had an unusually sunny fall and winter this year even though it is a La Nina weather pattern (which for us usually means more snow.)

   The other image was posted in August and was titled "Sun Circle."  I feel very honored to have had my work chosen for this wonderful show.

Orchids

I thought these flowers were beautiful.  Shot on T-Max 100 using a Mamiya C330.

Dreaming of a White Christmas...in Hawaii

  I shot this image a year ago when I was in Hawaii.  I really enjoyed the holiday decorations.  People went over the top with decorations even re-creating snow by using white plastic on their front lawns.  I grew up around snow so I thought it was really funny.  It was the first time in my life that I was somewhere warm during the holiday season.  I shot this image using my original Diana and Kodak Portra VC160 film.

View of Mt Hood 2

This is from my series on Scenic Views.  This is Mt Hood as seen from Dufur, Oregon.  Shot in The Dalles Oregon using Kodak Portra 160VC film with my Holga.

Newspace Member's Juried Show

   I had an image accepted into the Newspace Member Juried Show which opened tonight.  Karl and I went to Portland for the gallery opening and enjoyed seeing the show.  There was a wonderful variety of work shown. 

   This image was shot on Kodak T-Max 400 and printed in a traditional wet darkroom.
 

View of Mt Hood 1

   This image is from a newly started series called "Views of Mt Hood."  I love the many ways and places people choose to dipict Mt Hood.  Most of the images I have shot so far are murals where Mt Hood is somehow included.  Some of the murals are historical scenes, while others have Mt Hood included as part of a logo.  This one was painted on a wall in an industrial area.  My intention is to include some indication of location in all the images in this series.
