new music- Shift

A 5/2020 remix, this was posted with the original mix 2/2020 Another instrumental, hopefully reflecting the unrestrained exuberant spirit of much of the hard rock we grew up with and other influences current and past. Once again David Nielsen performed and provided drum tracks, and collaborated on arrangement and sonics. The video is just eye candy, […]

Let me first stress that any attempt to display the subtleties of prints on line is a foolish, but I’ve included several anyway. Call it eye candy. My friend Bill Kennedy alerted me to two new additions to Hahnemühle’s natural line of papers made from sustainable natural fibers, explained better by them than me on […]

“Other” was written as background music for “A Selection From Four Decades of Photography”. Several remixes were made before arriving at one that suited that purpose, most were too insistent for attention or at odds with the images. I liked some of the rejected sounds, so wanting a stand-alone version for myself I put occasional […]

on a disturbing news day during which we betrayed our Kurdish allies I turned it off and immersed in practicing a bit. After making a simple loop to find some lydian phrases, I liked the sounds and mood I landed on so decided to turn on the laptop and a camera and try my first […]

** the original music felt too intrusive, so instrumentation and mix were changed, and reuploaded to youtube, This is the new version as of 9/24/2019 ** After preparing several music pieces for youtube, usually with an accompanying still of mine, I decided to reverse the emphasis and make a video of some of my photography. […]

new music- Dusk

Last year I put up a quick live-ish piece posted HERE. Some of the motifs stuck with me resulting with the development of this piece. David Nielsen performed and provided drum and percussion tracks. Each of these pieces finishes somewhere entirely unpredicted, I have no idea what genre this is, an instrumental as usual. This […]

new music- Stride

A power trio instrumental, with occasional additional ear candy at no extra charge. Hopefully this honors the power trio tradition we love, updated a bit. Once again David Nielsen performed and provided drum tracks, as well as collaborated on arrangement and sonics. Working with a real rock drummer increases the likelihood of more rock going […]

  Two new additions to the uneditioned print offerings, all of which are on sale through the holidays. The top image was made in 2014 on a trip in eastern WA with Jeff Corwin, along one of those tiny roads that yields rewards unforeseen. This is one of 3 or 4 5×7 large format exposures […]
