I was listening to Salman Rushdie on NPR this morning, and the radio host asked him what it would take for him to believe in any sort of God. He stated, “He’ll have to show up.” I’ve said the same myself. It’s interesting to me that the entire weight of the New Testament rests on...

Don’t ever ask a visual artist what color snow is. They won’t say “white” and leave it at that. I stumbled onto this question on another web site last month and have been thinking about what color snow is ever since. An example. This morning there was an absolutely glorious...
On our most recent photo outing, Angie was unable to go because of the launch of I ♥ Faces, but Jean and I took a trip to Glass Axis in Columbus, Ohio. This was actually a fascinating trip for me, and will probably be worthy of another visit(s). I recognized all kinds of kiln equipment...

Will Facebook really pull in my blog posts? Update – Answer is yes. One less scatter in my brain.
New Year’s resolutions really aren’t my bag. When a change is needed, I just go for it. Not that making change any time of the year lasts any longer than it does at the turn of the calendar . . . . But I came across a great list of photography resolutions that just plain sounded...
Normally, a 210 mm lens on a 4×5 format would be at the short end of the telephoto range or at the long end of normal. When you’re only capturing a small part of the image area, however, that long normal/short tele turns into quite an apparent multiplication factor. This photo was taken with the...
