Home Fires Budapest, Hungary 2011

The ghostly figure in this image happens to be the Fashion Queen in the kitchen of our apartment in Budapest. I took the photo on returning from a night’s photographic stroll of Budapest. I suppose this is kind of a misleading title given we’re in the middle of a rather bad wildland fire season here in the West.]]>

The World As I See It Bozeman, Montana 2012

Actually this is the world as I see it very infrequently due to traveling to art shows and getting ready for them in between trips. I took this the other day when I took a few minutes to enjoy the new deck and some fine summer weather at our mountain house.]]>

Night Games Budapest, Hungary 2011

Some ghostly looking pool players. (You may have noticed that I’m pulling some rather random images from the past. I’m trying to tie up some photographic loose ends so to speak.)]]>

Variations on a Square Missoula, Montana 2012

A nice abstract composition that would look right at home in a contemporary art exhibit I think.]]>

Photo Denver, Colorado 2012

I was looking at this piano when I felt a subliminal suggestion to take a photo, so I did. This is one of several artist decorated pianos on the 16th Street Mall. (I’ve seen them in Salt Lake City as well.) The pianos are all functional so occasionally a pianist, budding or otherwise, can be seeing in an impromptu performance.]]>

Patriot’s Dream #33 Denver, Colorado 2012

My Patriot’s Dream exhibit is now on view at the Emerson Center for the Arts and Culture in Bozeman. There was a reception for the exhibit last Friday and I got some very good comments about the photos as well as the pairing of various flag quotes with the images. This photo would have made a good addition to the exhibit, but I only just took it the end of May at the Downtown Denver Arts Festival where I was exhibiting, too late to make the Emerson show. It was Memorial Day weekend so I guess wearing these shorts was this guy’s way of commemorating fallen Americans.]]>

Measures of Anonymity #23 Denver, Colorado 2012

A homeless guy taking in the warm morning light.

Measures of Anonymity #21 Denver, Colorado 2012

A little Sunday early morning activity.]]>

Measures of Anonymity #20 Denver, Colorado 2012

I thought I’d throw this odd-ball (in the sense that it’s in color) image into the mix. Not so much anonymity here, either architecturally or otherwise. I don’t know who these people are, so in that sense they are anonymous but I do know or could guess some of their story; they are getting engaged or married or otherwise want to document their relationship. How do I know this? Out of the photo to the left in the middle of the street (it was Sunday morning so there was essentially no traffic) is a photographer instructing them where to stand, how to pose etc. for the photos she was taking.]]>
