After a lifetime of mainly expressing myself with words, my postings here will mainly rely on images. They will speak for themselves to some extent, but I'll usually add a few comments of explanation. I've taken photographs for decades, since the 1950's, inspired in part by my father's photographic skill. Four years of photo assignments and quality darkroom time eventually gave way to decades of casual and family picture-taking. I re-immersed myself when I left film and turned to digital.

Welcome to my blog site, where I'll semi-daily post some images I like and a few comments of greater or lesser relevance to the images and the context. Sometimes the comments will explain why I took a photo and what I see in it that makes me think, or hope, others will find it interesting.
Let me know what you think. Please don't assume I think every image will be interesting to everyone. Photographers are like ravens, collecting bright, shiny objects. Tastes differ, wildly. To some, only action is interesting. To others, only portraits or landscapes are worthy. This will be an eclectic display; everything I photograph is fair game for posting.
Thank you for dropping by. I look forward to your comments and will post them only with your prior approval. I would rather have candid private comments than hear nothing. And I don't publicize or trade on my contact or client list.

Eagle Games, Part One
December 27, 2023
The title of this post is a little misleading. One the one hand, bald eagles are supremely pragmatic regarding most of their activities. They seem to do no more than nece...

Eagles, Image and Mien
December 20, 2023
We're going to leave the Eagle Convention for a bit, to contemplate eagles more broadly. First, their image and mien: militant, stern, watchful, fierce, aloof, dignified,...

Eagles Convene
December 12, 2023
In late June there was an eagle fly-in, a convention of sorts, at water's edge on nearby Auke Bay beaches. A few of these photos, taken at a short telephoto distance (no...
