Seeing Sunsets

 


Living in the Southwest I have become accustomed to the brilliant colors produced by the sun as it slowly dips into the Sonoran Desert horizon.  Sometimes I take this event for granted, however it has always presented a challenge to capture it photographically.


Although photography is my medium of choice, I sometimes find myself dissecting these sunset images into a series of abstract lines and circles flooded with colors.  You might call this a different way of visualizing them in a graphical context.

Trick or....

 


Its that time of year again…when the spirit world rises and dresses for the part.  This is my version of Trick or Treat; no candy will be given out.











Images shot using a Sony A7II camera and some postproduction using Photoshop…comments can be sent to nymacc@gmail.com

Unconscious Photographic Doodling

There is a time when conscious meets the unconscious in the realm of photography.  This blog post is what you might consider photographic doodling while sitting in front of a blank computer screen.  The images were created over a period of days when creative boredom was casting its long shadows.



I have no explanation for why I have weaved various photos into this unconscious assembly of images. Psychologically maybe the images represent the distortions of my mood or feelings during this particular period.  Then it just might be an unconscious doodling into photographic fantasy and surrealism that the viewer can interpret as they see fit.











All the images were created using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.  I can be contacted at nymacc@gmail.com.

The Zen of The Pepper

In this post I view the Bell Pepper from within, through a series of photographs focused on the inside after it has been cut up for a salad.  There is a certain alien like landscape that presents itself.  So this is my Zen portrait of several different peppers.











All photos shot using a Sony A7II camera with window light and a portable LED light for accenting pepper center seeds.  You can leave comments at nymacc@gmail.com

Broccoli Trees

Broccoli, a childs vegetable nightmare.  You can roast it, broil it, fry it, steam it; but it still tastes like broccoli.  



While I am a fan of eating this veggie, I have also found its shape at times resembling a surreal tree worthy of photographic exploration.   So, this post is devoted to the many shapes of broccoli.
