I used the common colour pencils to depict having the courage to be different and break out. I used a very short depth of field on this shot to focus on the red pencil and bring a 3-D effect to the shot. I hold this shot very close to heart- the only shot I submitted to a competition and sailed through to the finals :). The theme was…’breakout’, of course!

This picture took a long time to create. The flowers (Chamaescilla corymbosa) are very common in the bush near my home, but they are also very tiny, so it is difficult to create a frame free of “clutter”. I wanted the orange flower to be an out-of-focus background contrast to the main blooms, while having all the stamens sharp. Lots of time lying down with the tripod in amongst the jackjumpers! Velvia scan. “Dance with me!” was featured in the group A Beautiful Blur.
California’s Big Sur coast. Taken with Toyo 4×5 view camera and Provia 100 film. Approx 3 minute exposure. The 4×5 inch green box of Fuji Provia slide film contains ten unrecorded personal perspectives waiting to be shared with the world. In darkness, I load each precious sheet into individual film holders, feeling the film reference marks to ensure that the emulsion faces outward. The holder will be inserted into my Toyo A2 4×5 large format view camera on location in my garden, at a nearby lake or perhaps the Eastern Sierra Mountains. Nearly a year has past since my friend Gary encouraged me to pursue large format photography. Gary brokered a deal to purchase a camera from another friend, Sam. Along with the Toyo, Sam included 150 mm, 210 mm and 300 mm lenses. It would take some training and practice to learn to use the new camera but I was enthusiastic to learn a new way of studying the world. Held to the light, the details of a sharply focused 4×5 inch slide image capture my attention and even offer the possibility of crafting a mural-sized print. The view camera’s tilt and shift movements enhance creativity. But, there is another reason that I put my 35 mm camera on the shelf and focused on the view camera. The view camera forces me to slow down, to dedicate each shoot to a single image, or possibly two, to tell a story in a special way. My 35 mm camera and zoom lenses provide the ability to move quickly and capture many perspectives of the landscape, maybe too many perspectives. The Toyo’s workflow allows me to interject more thought into a single perspective, to try to tell a story in a special way. I focus on the big picture, the quality of light and color on the land. I find landscape details during hikes and often return to favorite locations. I arrive with the Toyo and merely have a feeling about a spot, trying to prevent preconceptions from tainting my composition. On location, I am ready to shoot. A composition is isolated, my tripod leveled, camera mounted and lens attached. I study the upside down inverted image on the ground glass and focus the bellows mounted lens. Tilts and shift are used to capture desired depth of field. Then I stop down the lens, set the shutter speed, close and cock the shutter and insert the film holder. Finally, I open the sleeve of the film holder and release the shutter to capture the cool blue light of predawn. I capture the moment as I gaze upon a window-like portal in a rock formation along California’s Big Sur coastline. It is not this photographic process that is important for me. Actually it is not even the final image that drives me to photograph with the Toyo. The Toyo simply allows me to interact with the simple details of nature, to imagine and create in a personal and rewarding way by slowing down and enjoying the beauty before me.
My kitty, Aurora after a “whirlwind” play session of about 10 minutes NONSTOP….completely exhusted laying on the hallway floor! This was such a CUTE picture…I just had to grab my camera, and hope she didn’t move when she saw me! Aurora is a rescued kitty. She use to live in a garage of a very kind animal lover who kept feeding her and sheltering her until she could find a good home…Thank you, Mary for taking care of her before I took her home! / ____ Featured in Clubs: / Hall of Fame for Animal Artists – Nov. 2009 / Dogs and Cats / Playful Photographic Pets / Tabby Time – 3 per day Wins in the following Groups & Challenges: / Cats & Dogs (1 per day) – “Happy Anniversary Cats & Dogs Members!” – Top 10 (#6) – Nov. 2009 / Playful Photogenic Animals – “Featured #1” – Top 10 (#9) Oct. 2009 / Domestic and Pedigree Cats – “Your Favorite” – Top 10 (#4) Oct. 2009 / Domestic and Pedigree Cats – “Cats with Natural Blue Eyes” – Challenge Winner (#1) Sept 2009 / Cats and Dogs (1 artwork per day) – “Tabby Cats” – Top 10 (#2) Aug. 2009 / Paws and Claws (3 per day) – 3 or more Features, Dogs and Cats only!!!!!! – Top 10 (#7) July 2009 / Playful Photogenic Pets – Indoor Pets – Top 10 (#4) June 2009 / Paws and Claws (3 per day) – “Rescued and Adopted Cats” – Top 10 (#4) June 2009 / Eye Contact – “Cats Eye” – Top 10 (#4) June 2009 / Paws n Claws – 2 or more Features, “Cats and Dogs only!” – Top 10 (#4) / Cats and Dogs(1 per day) – “Exhusted Cats” – Top 10 (#9) / The Woman Photographer – “Your Pet” – Top 10 (#8) / The Woman Photographer – “Here Kitty, Kitty, Kitty” – Top 10 (#3) / Cats and Dogs (1 per day) – “Cats & Dogs – Your Favorite” – Top 10 (#6) / The Beginner’s Corner – Favorite Pet Challenge” – Top 10 (#1) / Domestic and Pedigree Cats – June Avater _ Top 10 (#1) / All Pets Great and Small – “Cats Only (Main Focus) – Top 10 (#1)

3.14159 out of 10 I’ve temporarily re-cropped this to more closely fit the template for the challenge. After the challenge is over I’ll be restoring it to its full size as I prefer it like that. / Here is what it should look like when I restore it to it’s original size: For the Happy challenge (whoo, I won!). Stefan Sagmeister is asking people to rate their happiness from 1 to 10, and create a portrait that illustrates this. A selection of works will be included in his upcoming “Happy Film”. I’m baffled by this number system, but I’ve given myself a 3. Although I suppose at any given moment I may be anywhere between a 1 and a 10, I figure I should average it out a bit. Make of that what you will. Click here to see it as a work in progress. / Click to see the process animated like magic! Witness the evidence of my winningness: /
