Window Dressing
Lisbon, Portugal
2017

I love the way the neatly broken sections of glass (very little jagged edges) add to rather than distract from the wrought iron composition.

This elephantine creature was perched on the canyon wall the day I hiked into Sidewinder Canyon.

Pear Portrait
Bozeman, Montana
2018

I don’t know what it is about pears more than any other fruit that makes it hard for me to resist them as photographic subjects.

Blasted Art
Victoria, British Columbia
2016

When blasting rock for a new building foundation in a densely packed urban area, some means of containing the blast’s shrapnel is necessary. In this case in downtown Victoria they used these large woven mats of recycled rubber (tires perhaps). They were quite effective. Watching them work from our fifth floor hotel window across the street, I never saw any stray material flying anywhere. Too bad they were not effective at all at containing the blast noise or the more constant machinery noise as the rubble was being cleared away. The unpleasantly noisy environment did yield this quite pleasing abstract composition–another case of suffering for my art I guess. 🙂
