Photography, wildlife and more

Cool artistic stuff, rolandson…

thank you. Along with music and teaching, I was an exhibiting artist. Photography and Serigraphy.
I spent 40+ years chasing images. Strictly old school. They're called Silver Gelatin Prints now (a description of the emulsion, however one must lift their chin so as to look down the length of their nose and extend their pinky fingers out from the hand whilst speaking the words) and like old instruments, they command an eye opening price in galleries.

Some of my happiest moments were in my darkroom printing, while thinking about a musical passage I was working on, then going out to practice the passage to think about the print I was working on.

I'm weird that way.

I took some pics the other day of the band kids from the school rock band. Quite fun. Main singer is very photogenic

To these old eyes they are all very good and the two guitar players are...
stunning. The lighting is exceptional and the compodition very well seen.

Cheers! Your shots are just incredible.
The last few years I have been messing with lighting.
Interesting, the second gal (keys, 3rd picture) says she is not very photogenic...
What?
She is stunning, she conveys attitude just with her eyes and mouth IMO.

I dig it, what is interesting from my point, being hammered by the public so much for work but when i get a peak into their world..i always gravitate to bonding vs fighting, Shame we have to fight so much just to serve the public..trying so hard to be objective..thanks for the art work my friend. You guys from ST are alright !! That artwork was very nice !! It calmed me... it might be the black & white takes me back..waay back even tho images are intense..it is so good

This one was shot on infrared film:

And to keep it somewhat music related. This was just a film developing experiment.

Found this from a ways back. Just a snap of a lamp in our living room. Was neat lighting.

Testing how to use the photo hosting site Imgur:

I use Imgur also, but my posts don't include anything but the image, as below:

I use the option of Direct Link. Which are you using?

I don’t know how to get there anymore. The last Imgur makeover screwed me up…

Somewhere buried is the ability to view the "old" Imgur. That's what I have on my account.
