Pick-A-Photo Tuesday: Solar Boy

One of my favorite photos, this was a serendipity kind of thing... the subject in the photo was trying on my sunglasses, and a table lamp reflected in both lenses. I said, "don't move!" and got my camera out and snapped this shot. To make it even more interesting, I solarized it during the developing process which gave the final photo really dark shadows and silvery highlights.

Pick-A-Photo Tuesday: Witchy Cat

She looks as if she could cast a spell on you! This black and white photo of my tiny kitty Mercedes (now over the "rainbow bridge") became a magical image when solarized during the printing process. Nowadays, you can just do that kind of stuff in Photoshop.

Pick-A-Photo Tuesday: Junkyard Ghosts

This photo was shot in a really cool junkyard that had mostly cars from the 50's, 60's and 70's... a black and white photographer's dream! I used infra red film to shoot the original photo and then solarized the print during the printing process. The result... an ethereal image reminiscent of a Stephen King novel.

Magic Shoes

Sometimes I wish I had some magic shoes... to take me away...
