Give Expression to the Art Curator In You

Posted
Waterlily posterHopefully in the next couple of months I will have an exhibition of my photographic art. A couple of good friends came over recently and spent some time with me narrowing down the field.

We focused mainly on the digital watercolor works I did of the photos from my trip to Alamos, but also broadened the field to include favorites from the past. I have also included every work that has sold from my Imagekind galleries, as obviously when people vote with their money, that's a vote that counts! Ask any politician! Thank you, by the way, to anyone following my blog who has ever purchased any of my work. I love you! Smile! I love you!

So now is your turn to pitch in if you would, and I really hope you will. I set up this exhibition gallery of the "finalists" my friends and I came up with, but I have to narrow it down to 10 to 15 works. So that's where your votes come in

When you view the gallery, you will note that each image has a red x in the top right corner. Select up to 15 images that you would consider should be in the exhibition by clicking on the Xs. This will turn the red X to a green check mark/tick. At the bottom of the gallery is a message form. If you wish to remain anonymous or are in a hurry you can still send the message just by clicking send. I will just get an anonymous email containing a list of the images you selected. I will not be able to tell who you are or what your email address is. But since it would feel better to say thanks for your participation, please consider including your name and email for me. I will not use your email address for anything else but to thank you.

Please note that you can view the images as a slide show by clicking on an image. You should see the slide show controls at the bottom of the larger image that will be displayed. You can also use the spacebar to start and pause the slide show, and while in pause mode, you can go forward and back by using the arrow keys.

So get voting! Once again here's a link to the exhibition gallery.

Do Not Disconnect - The Real Digital Divide

Posted
The fly in the ointment, Opito Bay, around 2007. This post was originally published in November, 2007. Almost two decades on, the photograph and the argument both feel — if anything — more relevant than they did then. I have updated this post lightly in May, 2026, some 19 years later! The Photograph I was on holiday in Opito Bay on New Zealand's Coromandel Peninsula, sitting on the couch in the place we were staying at. A friend's iPod was resting on the coffee table, on top of a copy of The Economist from March 2005, whose cover story happened to be titled "The Real Digital Divide." A fly landed on the iPod's click wheel and stayed there. I reached for my camera, took the shot, and edited it later in Photoshop to give it the grungy, oversaturated look you see above. The fly on the iPod along with "The Real Digital Divide" struck me — immediately, and with a kind of emb...

Anza-Borrego Wildflowers

Posted
Anza Borrego Desert State Park California Wildflowers This cluster of wildflowers is typical of the flowers in Plum Canyon in Anza-Borrego Desert this spring. Because of the dry and harsh environment, most of the flowers are tiny like the three in this photo. But what they lack in size, they make up for in color. It's pretty difficult to try and identify all these flowers, but I'm pretty sure the white one is Desert Pincushion. Help out if you can. I've been using the CalFlora.org website to try and identify the flowers in this series.
