Fine Art Photographer
Quiet time for reflecting on all that has happened since 1998 from my first trip to visit my daughter. this image is made from film and printed in the classic silver gelatin style. It is hard to imagine it’s been 15 years since my first Amtrak voyage. A graduation, workshop instructor, a wedding and a granddaughter. Olympia beckons Connecticut holds on…………. enjoy pjc
Pretty dusty scan lol I’m better at that as time passes on. No Dust on prints
Olympia Washington open daily, Clams and Jams. Art, Music friendly folk Best Farmers Market I have ever been too. enjoy pjc
On the east coast Coventry Farmers Market is the best. But Olympia is open daily very cool on the southern tip of Puget Sound.
The first Third Thursday Street Fest had all the usual things, Great food, Art, Music, Smiles and sadness?
Thousands of folks attended and I was carrying a 480mm lens for this shot. Yes I do know what I want before I head out. The lens is heavy so rarely do I carry it for strolls. Image made breaking the rules at North St. looking into the sun, no hood. I ended up with an overexposed image exactly what I had planned. In PS I adjusted contrast darkened the image and over sharpened to create this graphic image of the crowd.
Here is an image of the colors of festivities more of my usual closer look stuff.
Mike Blommer plays with Fred’s Gospel Blues band. This image made moments before the first alarm that added sadness to the mix an unwanted visitor for this community.
At 7:15 I went to the Co-OP as I had planned to get some chips. There was a small crowd as it seemed that folks who could help were there and most of the rest stayed out of the way of the fire fighters who did a great job. Thank you very much to the devoted Fire Departments and the community.
