Portraits

Becky in Experimental Process

A portrait of Becky, developed in an experimental process causing some lifting of the photographic emulsion similar to the Mordançage process, though done on a positive film and scanned rather than on a print.

The Stare

Dramatic lighting and black-on-black composition gives the intense expression your full attention.

Thoughtful Flare

The slight lens flare gives the right half of the image a slight softness while remaining in focus. Few hard shadows keeps distractions from the expression low.

Watching the Sunset

After climbing Mt. San Jacinto in the California wilderness, a moment is spend in silence just watching the sun set in the distance as the moon rises behind.

Captain

Silhouetted by the beginning of sunset, one hand on the wheel, he steers towards adventure!

Intrigue

A thoughtful, musing expression and a slightly harsh aesthetic provides both visual interest and depth.

From Light Into Darkness

The face is kept so bright that it seems to glow against the flat blackness of the background. Her hair and shoulder provide just a small shim of depth in the otherwise sharp transition.

Into the Abyss

Framed by her hair, lips just slightly parted, she stares off into the blackness. The expression provides a look of dawning, but not fully realized, comprehension of something seen in the distance.

Becky, Floating

Late at night, floating in a hot tub, relaxing.
