Well it evening, I am getting a handle on my migraine…lots of work to do today, so the posters reflex that I hope:

Enjoy “Curved Ride”

A Hole shot, photographer wise….and yes, that is the whole frame as shot. Nothing is warped in Photoshop. Valley of Fire, Nevada. 2015

and this one is the Mossy Cascade photo,

“Moment of Quiet”

It is a bit more fun in a big view like my 12 x 18 images I print. This is a fast shot, to catch so many drips and I slowed it down just enough to slightly blur the drips, but keep individual. Enjoy

Ah, yes well this mornings photo was taken the other day, the saying thought of this morning and refined as I worked on the photo.

Please enjoy “Natural Order”

Monday morning, as Garfield the cat might say, oh really,

Hope the week is going good here is this morning inspiration poster,

“Sunrise/Sunset”

Remember, opinions are personal and pointless to force on others…….Lovingkindness energy to All.

Good Morning, here is today’s Inspirational Poster,

“Unlimited Variety”

Night light painting photography in Joshua Tree N. P. California

I was just answering a question of what I thought was the most Important tool as a self-employed person…….my answer is the quote. I liked it and decided to make a poster of it. Hope you enjoy it. 11pm time for a nap.

“Creativity”

Believe in yourself.

Sunday afternoon, I’m sorry but I was working on a inspiring project, which is leaving me with out a comment to print on a photo.

Instead, let me share with you, my selection of BLACK AND WHITE prints, yes you only get to see the digital file on screen, I have been enjoying myself into the late hours of the night and again this morning: The Weston Cliffs at Red Rock Canyon, Mojave area Southern California, USA 2015 (shot 20151112)

A tribute to to my 42 years of photography, 15 years old in a print shop darkroom in high school working on the teacher’s Master’s thesis photos, 16 yrs. old I was in my own darkroom. I had a job and the apts. to run so a night time photographer I became, 10pm to 6am my play ground. Just instructions to tell me what to do, No teachers, no parent or brother, I was all to myself……….creative energy unleashed……..

I was a photo editor for a publisher that put out 6 weekly newspapers. First I was in the wet darkroom, later as I showed what my Mac system could do for my screen printing business, the newspaper went digital. The rest of the world was doing it already, us mountain folk get things slow…….1988-1997

I am at a loss for words after working on these images. The Weston Cliffs, named after Edward Weston for taking some photos there many years ago, are to me an awesome challenge to produce in Print.

I am making these prints for the Old Timers and Film Loving photographers of my Sierra Club Camera Committee. We are having a Member’s show in Dec. and I know I am moving from the area.

Since I have no words  to put on a poster and am going to send a copy of the prints to a good friend in the club who also has moved a bit far away, I would like to present these black and white photos as today’s Inspirational Posters.

I hope you can see that, even my poor attempt, at least is does not need words……..enjoy the views,

Lovingkindness to all.

Ok, so yesterday I got out of my photo studio for a little night shoot, left Wens. and got this shot at Red Rock Canyon, Mojave area of California…

A shooting star across the Milky Way as seen in the winter sky in the Northern Hemisphere. Enjoy.

“Grants Wishes”

Red Rock Canyon and shooting star…. a favorite place and time of day.

Good morning, it the bump in the middle of the week and a Holiday in America….

Here is today’s poster of the morning, sorry it is a bit wordy, but I need the extra stuff on there, once again, someone who claims friendship has informed me that “No, I just close my ears, I am along for the ride. I don’t Want to know about you.” so,

“Long Road”

Yes, those are my tracks, I am coming back out…..Enjoy the wide open views folks.

This one I thought of last night, driving through Los Angeles traffic on Santa Monica blvd. near the 405,

took a bit of hunting but I found a photo I wanted, so here is “Not a Target!”

maybe a redneck or an old car lover???

Ah, just in time for noon coffee break, Kona coffee, from Peet’s Coffee, roasted on the 28th of Oct.

enjoy, “Without Complaint”

To those of you who believe they can tell any “God” what to do, just remember the ones that do not question……

Lovingkindness all, here is the first one of the day……..took a while to find the photo, which shows how bad my business is.

It is the Lunar Ring and Joshua Tree I have posted for sale recently, as fine art also.

The saying is a TRIBUTE by me to me for a constant need to be trying to out Wit Murphy’s Law. I created the saying in 1978 or 1979 and have used many many times in writing, conversations and even a Paintings series. Now it is in my photography and Inspirational Posters.

“End of Circle”

May you all Find the end of your circles………

OK, Good morning, it’s Monday once again…..Hope it’s off to a nice start.

Here is this morning Inspirational poster,

Just the view to make you stop and Breathe. Lovingkindness to ALL

Ok, well this afternoon’s poster is more for the environmentalist or spiritual, but it is a bit mean……

I have come to realize that my photography files are now a disaster as well……..I had 10 drives hooked up to try to sort through, (I’m bad), the plumber broke a 2 inch water main 5 times……..my biz has been being moved back and forth for 10 days…….I spent 2 hrs looking for a blank CD to write files on…….days looking for parts to fix a computer……

so “Essence of Creator”

walk quietly, respect before Disrespect……
Lovingkindness energy to All.

Good morning! It’s Sunday where I am and that means people are doing their church things. Lovingkindness Energy to All

Here is this morning’s Inspirational poster, yeah, bit spiritual…..

At first I was going to pick one without the ship, but it fit the perspective too much…..Enjoy.

OK, so this next photo is one I took and knew I wanted it when I saw this spot…….my camera stopped working about 20 spots later.

Love what I got and may find time to go back.
