Welcome/Willkommen!

Hello and welcome. Hope you enjoy the images I have posted. Please do not reproduce them without my permission. Most are available as note/greeting cards or as prints/enlargements. Thank you for visiting my site and your comments.
Many have asked about the Header image above, which I named 'Eerie Genny'. It was originally shot with film [taken on the shore of the Genesee River near the Univ. of Rochester]. During the darkroom development, I flashed a light above the tray. The process, known as 'solarization', produces eerie, ghostlike effects; some have mistaken this image as an infra-red photo. Some 35+ years later, I scanned and digitized the print, and did a little modern day editing, and, voila.

The Waterfalls of Letchworth State Park


   These shots are ‘burning a hole in my pocket’ [probably a strange idiom to foreigners], so I won’t wait for the ‘coming weeks’. These are the two major waterfalls in Letchworth State Park [scroll down a bit to see an earlier posting]. The Upper and Middle Falls are separated by less than 1/2 mile and the walk between them is quite easy. The two shots of Upper Falls were taken with and without my trusty 10-stop neutral density filter. I really like the cotton effect on the water [see the Honeoye Falls in the Oct. 18 posting below].



The Middle Falls is more impressive, and one can get much closer, as well as find more locations to shoot from. I wish I had some sound to accompany these pics.
