For many years I had a section of artists I like on my website. When I started dealing with more complex php coding, which was supposed to let me do less work overall, I removed these artists' images hoping to get back to them at some point. Well, that point is now.

My plan is to add artists' images I enjoy, or have some relevancy to my work, as I have time. Initial access is through my Contact page, but will grow into more of a gallery process as I go along....I hope. Howard Pyle's images from Otto of the Silver Hand are the first to be available, today.

I've added 3 new artist proof images to my ebay store, and 3 art/photography books. I recommend the River of Shadows highly for anyone interested in photography, landscapes, Yosemite or California history!

I've also started adding accumulated print images for sale at my ebay store after a lengthy dry period of no listings. For those interested, click here to visit the store. Artist proof of Dancing Aspens is presently listed there. I will continue to add items, proofs and open editions at ebay.

In the book section of the website, I've started a booklist of books I've read this year, with the intention of reminding myself what I've read, make some brief comments on those I've found worthwhile...and relative to the art section, note books of interest or value to my work.

I often give books I like as presents, and have collected a number of art and photography books which I offer for sale or have linked to amazon for those interested.

Dancing Aspens at Sorensen's was shot in late October in Hope Valley just south of Lake Tahoe. Visiting Sorensen's Lodge, I had hoped to shoot fall colors, but was preceded by early snow, rain and high winds which took care of most of the leaves. Nevertheless I was able to find some limited color in a few Eastern areas more protected from the elements. There are a series of images shot at this particular time I will be adding over the next few weeks.

I've entered this with a number of other images for consideration at The Art of Photography Show in San Diego in April. Wish me luck, as I would very much like to start having my images recognized by the art world.

Capitola with Jim & Liz shot with a Canon A70 digital camera, photoshop, BuzzX and Neat Image filters. Christmas colors.

I haven't printed this one yet. I've done a number of fall leaf images including the home page long exposure photo of a Maple in our yard on Christmas night.

I try out images at photo.net to what kind of responses I can get. You can see a number of images there that aren't here, and may never be here, if you like. Click here to see.

See the USA was shot with a Canon A70 digital camera at the Woodies on the Warf in Santa Cruz. I liked this single vehicle. It reminded me of prepping for commercial shoots, waiting for the weather. Back when gas was $.25. Happy 4th of July.

I'll be annotating images as I add them to the website starting today. I've come to the end of a fairly long struggle revising the gallery section, and will continue to do so as I go along, I'm sure.

In some ways, I'm starting over with my workflow driven by this website. I'm revisiting every image, now that I've gotten better at Photoshop and revising and reprinting virtually every image.
