I have always been a fan of the painters Wayne Thiebaud and Paul Wonner. They both glorify everyday objects and lift them, through their vision and skill, to the heights of art. Such was the inspiration for my image, shot and submitted for today’s Daily Photo Game. Robert’s cool image “Shruburbia” gave me the numerical […]
The exploration in creating something totally new has always had an allure for me, spontaneously transforming an object or scene from the mundane into the extraordinary. This process is not always rewarded with success, but I keep throwing myself into this state of discovery… “let’s see what happens”. Robert’s image, “Transformer” reminded me a coil […]

My response to Robert’s martian image from the game, is a bit alien as well. It is called “Christmas Goes Viral”. I shot this christmas ornament this morning and I liked it as a straight image, but as most of you may have guessed by now, I am not a straight shooter. The ornament struck […]
I chose another form of branches to follow Robert’s asparagus fern shot for the Game. I shot this image while out hiking in the Columbia Gorge. A gorgeous hike with beautiful waterfalls, streams and light. This reflected image struck me as soon as I framed it, it had great compositional form and the blue sky […]
My latest image for the game. Today was such a stellar day in Portland, I had to get outside. It was one of those afternoons I knew was going to produce blue shadows, I love these days. I went to visit a fellow photographer’s show in an industrial area of PDX, ripe pickings for a […]
