Feeling Polish

 This is another post in the Corona Era revisiting previous photos.

In search of a unique way of making images, one trick I came up with was photographing using a 15' painter's pole. It's not as high as a drone. But the image quality from my good mirrorless cameras is better. And the difference of perspective doesn't hit you over the head. Also, this style of photography isn't limited by the FAA and I can walk around urban areas with my setup.

So I've put together a gallery here to share of some of these.

The Italian Cemetery

For the moment, I'm living in Redwood City. One of my favorite motifs is cemeteries, and I'm not far from where most of San Francisco buries their dead: Colma. Follow the link by clicking on the sample photo below if you want to see more.

2022-01-16 Memories of Another Country That is No More

 I've been working on another way to digitize my old negatives. 20 years ago, I was using a Nikon Coolscan. Looking at those files now, they're ok I guess. Better than nothing. I have an Epson V750, but especially for 35mm, those scans suck. I have access to a drum scanner, but those scans take so much time and work. In any case, I've come up with a method that I'm happy with. This isn't my technical blog, so I'm just gonna show you a few images from Czechoslovakia. Now that country was separated in the "velvet divorce," one of the few country split ups that was peaceful and civil. Back in 1991 when I first visited, Czechoslovakia had recently moved from a planned "socialist" economy towards a western style more capitalist democracy. Prague was a gritty, gray, yet beautiful city mostly visited only by foreigners from the East Block.  Czech out the gallery (isn't that punny?!) here .
