With our drought, Alameda creek has completely dried up with a few small pools of water. Lets hope the big storm coming in on Monday, that the creek will be back in its full glory.

After a long break from shooting or even visiting Sunol. I went out for a short visit to Sunol. I took my Zeiss 20mm Jena lens. This is a very old lens that works with an adapter. These are experiments with this “new” lens and how it works.

One from Filoli, Mother and I visited on Sunday, but she vetoed all photos.

As part of the Magic in the Mix show at PhotoCentral, I will be showing the Obscura work for the first time. If you have been following the blog, you may think aren’t those “Grungy Flowers”. Yes, they are and newly renamed to Obscura. Obscura is latin for dark. The prints are floated transfers which is a new, unique process that has results somewhat like collodion prints with many interesting flaws.
