Waterlily and Koi

Posted
The pond in the gardens at the Huntington Library is a peaceful place to stop and rest for a bit and idly watch the koi moving slowly through the waterlilies. In the summer there are also lotus flowering in the pond with bright red dragonflies flitting about which is sight to behold.

On Saturday I took some photos of the koi floating by in a break in the lily pads. I played around with this one until late on Saturday night and gave it a Monetesque touch. I hope you like it.


By the way, you can have this printed out on all kinds of media such as cups, t-shirts, cell phone covers, stationery, etc. from my portfolio at Redbubble. If you want to get beautiful prints, framed or unframed, or ready-to-hang prints on canvas, then go to my portfolio at Imagekind. Here are the links to this artwork:

Taking Photos in RAW DNG Format with Mobile Devices

Posted
Note: This post was originally published on January 16, 2017, as the second part of a three-part series on RAW format mobile photography. Some details — particularly the apps' feature sets, Android versions, and the state of mobile RAW photography — have changed considerably since then. I've left the original text in place as a record of where things stood at the time. Following on from yesterday's post ( What is RAW photography format? ), today I am going to share with you some ways you can take RAW DNG (digital negative) files using an Android device such as a smartphone or tablet. Currently I am using a Google Pixel XL smartphone running on Android 7.1.1 (Nougat). If you haven't yet read yesterday's post, I recommend that you take the time to do so to give you an understanding of the advantages of taking your photos in RAW format. Android Apps That Allow You to Take Photos in RAW Format Currently, these are the two apps I use on my Google Pixel XL ...

Celebrating Aotearoa New Zealand: My Kiwi Pride Collection

Posted
100% Kiwi Typography T-Shirt My mind constantly wanders back to my homeland of New Zealand, especially after my recent trip there with four of my friends from the U.S. I have only deepened my appreciation for Aotearoa and its unique culture and magnificent landscape. While I am already counting down the days until my next visit "way down under", I needed a creative outlet to express that connection right now. Between tending to the native Arthropodium cirratum and Pseudopanax ferox flourishing in my garden, I sat down to design something to help others express their Kiwi pride too. A Tribute to Aotearoa I am thrilled to introduce my "Kiwiana" collection over on my Redbubble shop. I've created both graphic and minimalist text artworks. These designs pop beautifully on crisp white graphic tees, sturdy travel totes, and die-cut stickers perfect for a water bottle....
