Most people have nothing to say about anything, but they’re usually willing to say it anyway. Any chance they get.

Having said that, welcome to my weblog.

The photos I’ve posted here have all been, to this point, shot and edited on my iPhone. I’ll be writing more on that soon—but it looks like we’re seeing the start of something.

The little secret is getting less so. With almost every passing day, it seems that more and more professional photographers are admitting (perhaps a bit sheepishly) that, yes, there are moments when the Canon simply won’t do, when they just have to use their—cellphone.

There is a gallery of reader-submitted photos, coming soon. See also the gallery of Polaroids.

Robert Buelteman works with a photography process that destroys the flowers that are its subject.

Buelteman’s technique is an elaborate extension of Kirlian photography (a high-voltage photogram process popular in the late 1930s) and is considered so dangerous and laborious that no one else will attempt it—even if they could get through all the steps.

Let's get this started

Most people have nothing to say about anything, but they’re usually willing to say it anyway. Any chance they get.

Having said that, welcome to my weblog.

I’ve tried this before, and I’ll probably try it again—sometime after this one is no more than a file, not found—but what you are reading is the latest iteration of an effort to put my thinking into a more substantial form.

I am my audience

Don’t take offense, but this isn’t for you. This is for me. An outlet, and an exercise. So, I am my audience. My micro-niche. And I figure that if I stick to writing about things that interest me, however small, I will avoid sounding drawn, forced, and thin. And I’m guaranteed to rate highly amongst my target market.

E. L. Doctorow said, “Writing is an exploration. You start from nothing and learn as you go.” It is thinking, done out loud. And manifest in the act of writing is the observer effect; the act of laying one’s thinking down, so better to observe it, changes that thinking and—it can be hoped—makes it better and more robust.

Mainly I’ll just be linking to YouTube.
