Road Trips

Looking Back. Road trips. They begin. They end. Somewhere in the middle is sort of a mid-point. A turn around place. Sometimes, that’s the destination. You get there. You stay there for a while. You...

Lafayette Cemetery No 1.

Lafayette Cemetery No. 1 at sunset. Cemeteries and me. I really don’t think that I have any kind of death fixation. Nor, do I think that much about my end. I just sort of like these places.  Old stuff....

Bikes at Lafayette Cemetery No. 2 I often return to the scene. Of the crime. Remember the dusky, blue hour picture of Lafayette Cemetery No. 2 that I posted two days ago? I took this picture the next...

Plaster Face

Graveyard statue. Back to the desktop. A little more layer experimentation. And, a little less color. I forget when and where I made the two base images. My guess is that I combined one image from New...
