Often heard, rarely seen
by DaveP

A Cicada. Despite their loud noise, they are incredibly difficult to spot since they go slient when they think you are too close, and their camouflage is great. / Not very colourful, but I was just pleased to track him down!

Those Colors Which Often Sprint
by Gordon Merrick Justice

So you see art, for me, is always a progression. Occasionally that movement ends me up in the proximity of where I intended to go, but often it lands me in a location so foreign to my initial plans, that I will look at what’s said and done, and not realize it as something I created. This was one of those trips. I can’t really tell you how I got here (said the driver on Ambien when he got pulled over), but it began as “Contest Announcement As Art.” You know, one of those quirky inspirations which seeks to combine things not only completely different from one another, but often contradictory in sheer nature itselves? Anyway, it was one of those, and I wanted it to mix art with directed writing as to produce something all three visually appealing, stimulating of mind, and funny – it was to be a mock advertisement for an art and literature contest. So, I thought of some clever stuff, got to work with Photoshop, and three hours later this appeared. It was like waking from a dream, but I was like, “hey, that’s a cool picture” and the rest is history. It’s like a gift, those divergent pathways in the artistic process, sometimes they just carry you for free.
The Death of R.O.B. In Blue (or What Happens When I Lose Gyromite Too Often)
by Gordon Merrick Justice

Poor R.O.B… not only was he out dated before he was even in vogue, Sisyphean in usage, and most certainly the product of the mind of Rube Goldburg, but once he stopped working, most simply threw him to the curb. Those same people are kicking themselves today, as this free little piece of machinery is now worth a pretty penny. Mine was fixable, but obviously I was not destined to fix it… so instead here lies R.O.B, and I barely even knew him! To Explain: In the 80s when Nintendo first came out, one accessory was the R.O.B, a simple robot which could perform tasks such as pressing buttons on the controller. It was such a useless device that only two or three games were compatible with it – one of those being Gyromite. Needless to say it was discontinued after a very short run, and is quite a rare NES collectible these day. As for me, I dismantled it… you know, to see what made it tick (turned out to be a wire or two and a gear), and this is a digitally altered image of the resulting carnage.

A Tribute To The Military Spouse
by Andy Mueller

Memorial Day, Hampton National Veterans Cemetary in Phoebus, VA. I like this shot particularly because all Veterans appear to be anonymous. Only the name of one Spouse (Ethel J. Allen) is engraved in the headstone just right of center. Often times, the military spouses rarely get honored and they really need to be, considering how hard military life can be on them as well. Best viewed in large format.

Success Often Teams With Grit and Grime
by Johanne Brunet

Success without hard work and determination does not happen very often in real life. Sweat, frustrations, sore muscles and achy bones usually get rewarded in the end… Conceptual shot made with my 13-year old nephew, as part of a photoshoot to test a 90mm Tamron lens before buying. RAW files processed in Lightroom and Photoshop CS4, converted to black and white and given an urban gritty treatment with various layers and filters adding grain and serious sharpening by contrast. Some dodging and burning applied as well. Focal length 90mm / ISO-800 / Aperture f/5,6 / Shutter 1/60 sec. Nikon D60 / Tamron SP AF90mm F/2.8 Di Macro 1:1 Model 272E Shot handheld, in manual mode, no flash fired. Lit with twin head halogen work lights (500w each) behind a large homemade diffuser, plus a silver reflector.
