Street Photography! This is the reason we carry cameras with the curiosity of a treasure hunter. Every now and then something brilliant shoots through the miasma. This is also an example of the Japanese visual theme called Notan. I want to meet the person who did this!

Eleven years prior to 9/11 I shot this. Little did I know...the photo would always haunt me.

The Holga plastic toy camera is an entry level camera into the realm of primitive cameras and photography. The word cult camera has been bandied about at times. We do need to remember that photography is the love (bastrad) child of the torrid affair Science and Art publicly conducted in the mid 19th century. Such goings on! ~TEU

No conjugal relations with intelligence, auto or otherwise, were conducted in the making of this video. Just Real Photography for Real People; AND SECRETS that THEY don't want YOU to know. Scandalous indeed!!! It is time to get serious about having fun with your cameras...

More July Light. I get a nice bolt of warm summer sun at 7pm
neatly made into a slit by my windows and walls that will find
recently cut flowers on my table. The color and mood are
dominating, I obey.

In this one-day Better iPhone photography class, you’ll learn exactly when and how to use each feature for gorgeous, reliable shots.
