Look Into My Eyes
“Don’t believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding, find out what you already know, and you’ll see the way to fly.” –Richard Bach Day 357 of my 365 photo a day project. Processed in Photoshop and Lightroom with liberal use of Topaz Glow and Topaz Impression.…… Continue reading Look Into My Eyes
Make My Day
This is my Clint Eastwood “go ahead, make my day” look. A bit of fun late at night while I’m trying new things. And, yes, scrambling to get a shot of the day. Ok, so yeah, it’s another self-portrait for the 365 image of the day. But I did have quite a bit of fun processing…… Continue reading Make My Day
The Eyes of a Child
“There are no seven wonders of the world in the eyes of a child. There are seven million.” –Walt Streightiff Oh, those beautiful eyes just melt my heart every time I see them.

What Are You Looking At?
What are you looking at? This is just me playing around with some surrealist ideas. What would it look like if you took your glasses off and held them out in front of you and saw your own eyes staring back? Not bad for a first attempt at it, but the execution needs some work. I need to…… Continue reading What Are You Looking At?

I shot a quick and simple head shot with my 50mm lens set pretty…… Continue reading Whirlwind of the Mind
Pursued by Tired
“There are only the pursued, the pursuing, the busy and the tired.” — F. Scott Fitzgerald It’s toward the end of the day, I need a shot for my 365 Project, and I’m exhausted and feeling a bit sick. I wanted to do more for today and I actually did get out and shoot a few things. But in…… Continue reading Pursued by Tired
Framed by Hands
Self-portrait – framed by my hands. This is not a dance move – I am not “vogue-ing”. I actually do this on occasion to visualize a shot if I don’t have a camera to look through. Think of it as a poor man’s camera obscura. Day 113 of my 365 photo a day project. If you…… Continue reading Framed by Hands
Worry – Self-Portrait
“Pull me under Pull me under Pull me under I’m not afraid All that I feel is honor and spite All I can do is to set it right Dust fills my eyes Clouds roll by and I roll with them Centuries cry Orders fly and I fall again This world is spinning inside me…… Continue reading Worry – Self-Portrait
Window
My son peaking through a “window” in a fallen tree in Riverside Park, on the East Side of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Day 73 of my 365 Project.
Insomnia
“The best cure for insomnia is to get a lot of sleep.” –W.C. Fields Insomnia rears its ugly head to me from time to time. It certainly makes getting through the day a challenge, especially when I am out of coffee! But I have a way of dealing with it. This is me saying to that…… Continue reading Insomnia
