all i can say is, "wow." wish i could shoot like that.

thx for sharing.

We all could. The problem is none of us will take time to do it. Plus you if you're still in the archaic world of film, it is big $$$$$$$ because you generally have to shoot a lot to get one decent picture. That is unless you're Bruce Yates. :rolleyes: :)

nice theory but i have to respectfully disagree. i'm a journalist who makes my living with words. those words are so much more powerful when they are complemented by powerful images.

i've tried my hand at photography, sometimes in tandem with pro photographers. the good ones just "see" things that i don't. i can get a decent shot but i always fall short of what really talented shooters get.

To Ozzie, wherever you are (an open letter)

Dear Ozzie. And Beth. Agunbeson. And Cecelia.

Dear whoever plans to solicit me during the next 10 miserable years of maintaining an e-mail account.

I am writing to you today to tell you that I do not want to buy Viagra* from you. I am not interested in a hot tip on an unknown stock that is about to explode. I do not want to invest in a business venture in Africa. I don’t want to refill my prescription in Mexico. Or buy a Mercedes for $1,000 from France.

I am not interested in revving up my love life or exciting my wife, and I’ve no interest in refinancing my house. I don’t need any more credit cards or debit cards or revolving debt.

I don’t need whiter teeth, fresher breath, or a refurbished scalp. I’m not dying to be thinner, more muscular, or bigger and better in any perceivable way.

I want to be left along.

Mark my words.

Alone. Completely alone.

My car is fast enough, my house is big enough, I earn enough income and my interest rates are just right.

To listen to you my life is a shambles, so I’ve decided not to listen to you. I’ve even designated your e-mail address as one to be ignored by my Outlook-hamsters.

No matter. Your mail still comes, but from a constantly-different address.

Let me be plain: I would not buy water from you if I was dying from its lack in the middle of the Sahara. In fact I wish the fleas of a thousand rabid camels would infest your navel.

It does not matter that the holiday seasons are upon us. I am your ultimate grinch, and if I could I would spread a thin layer of crazy glue on your keyboard so that you would be forced to carry it with you like an appendage grafted to your wretched frame.

Cease and desist, I say! Stop with the junk! One more unsolicited e-mail and I will go sailing off the brink of insanity. At that point I will seek out your offices and say unpleasant things to you and your fellow spammers. You are single-handedly doing to the digital age what bubonic plague did to dating during the medieval ages.

Do it now before it’s too late. Put down that mouse and back slowly away. Find a regular job that does not involve spreading misery and constipating in-boxes worldwide.

And thanks for listening. Ozzie. And Beth. Agunbeson. And Cecelia.

Oh, and happy holidays, one and all.

Oh my gawd, you DO know what a shift key is!! :D

That section on his site of the Salton Sea is very good. It's not far from here. It really is that wierd, that creepy. :abduct: I rode through there one morning and had a drunk literally fall out of the store with a 12 pack on the ground in front of me at 8 am. :crazy: Hard to believe it was, for a short time, "THE" spot to be. Marilyn, Crosby, the Rat Pack et al.

Thanks for sharing that site, beautiful work!

Excellent art.... yes.

Excellent photography??? Most if not all of those photos were highly modified by photoshop. It is kind of hard to call a picture that is highly modified, with photoshop, photography.

Maybe I am just a purist?
