Your Bio

having already achieved geezerhood at his half-century mark dedmanshootn needed something else to do so took up photography. this, along with gaming and chatting, reading, and enjoying good grub, keeps him amused and in a bare minimum of trouble.

i've been informed my prices are ridiculously underpriced. my philosophy is that any and all art is made to be enjoyed and thus should be affordable so i certainly hope this is true.

i've had several inquiries about my equipment so, for you technophiles out there here it is (such as it is):
digital platform: pentax k100d
(can't call it a camera because many years ago i used cameras and believe me this is NOTHING like them!)
lenses: pentax smc/da 18-55mm (matched to 'camera' so uses all features) vivtar 80-200mm (old 35mm camera lens so only works manually) rokinon 500mm f8
accessories: sunpak 660 ut tripod, shoulder bag to carry the tripod so i'll use it more (ty fam), new 'kit' bag (ty chuck) to haul this stuff around on the bus
software: pentax s-sw53 (the basic disc that came with the k100d), photoshop elements 5.0

hope this helps for those of you who love tech.

you may contact me if you wish at:Email me dedmanshootn@comcast.net

some of y'all have expressed an interest in your own smugmug page so i'm throwing this out there. enter this code in the space provided when signing up and get a $5 discount:

december day at whatcom falls
12/29/08

this is whatcom falls on whatcom creek. its right in my city but i don't go very often as its a bit of a hike to get to from the nearest bus alas. my sis came up early for the dinner we planned with 'family of the heart' (a phrase i believe i coined for those friends that are as close or closer than one's own blood) at the restaurant where i work - becuase the bosses four are definitely in that catagory too. we'd waited til now for our holiday dinner because of the less than easy weather conditions before. sis and i cruised on over to the falls and fought through the slush and heavy rain to enjoy it and try what pics we might. i'm quite happy with this one and the water coming over the falls is a nice torrent because of the thaw and rain. hopefully i'll be getting some more processed and posted if they turn out. have a great week all

droopy wet hollyhock
10/11/09

i slept until the middle of the afternoon after not getting much good sleep last nigt. spent the rest of the day napping and looking through great pics here in the dailies and smug. the chores are getting to the desperate stage but... we had rain all day and it was so gray i could hardly see half my normal view so i decided to forget any outside pic and i sure don't have the head for an inside pic so you're getting this that i found when i was cleaning out some old files over the holidays. it was shot at the same time as a previous daily some of you may remember (link below). i'm going to see what dailies there are new this morning and then to bed. enjoy your day

the bridge at whatcom falls
01/01/09

happy new year. i survived my new years eve double. didn't even take my camera with me as my entire focus was on work. this is from the shoot sunday with my sis at wahtcom falls. i'm posting early and off to bed; no i'm not staying up to greet the new year, it'll still be there in the morning. i can't find words for how much i've appreciated all of you who've participated in the dailies in 2008. i look forward to even better times and pics in 2009

sunny fall flowers trio
10/21/08

shot these a couple weeks ago but saved them until i had the technology and know-how to use them together, thanks sis for the suggestion that they might look nice all in the same image. this is my first try at a multi pic image. you can see the individual pics here if you like:

sycamore (probably) blossoms and freshly popped leaves
04/23/08

i don't know for sure what this is but the man mowing the yard told me its a sycamore tree. the leaves literally came out of the bud with the sunshine today. i was fascinated by the fine hairs in both the leaves and blossoms. i wish a had an actual macro lens though probably wouldn't have done any better as my tripod was holding down the fort at home while i walked to do some errands

sunflower in need of a stylist
09/22/08

didn't get out at all today and nothing creative came to mind (my head's full of tapioca, it generally is but especially in the immediate aftermath of a migraine) to shoot around my apartment so i'm posting another sunflower i shot the other day. this one was shot with available light. i really like what the wind and rain had done to it. thanks so much for the kind well wishes and comments on my other sunflower

tulip impressions
04/26/08

WINNER of the prestigious 'look what came out of the camera' award
sponsored by dedmanshootn

had a few minutes before the bus came and saw these lovely tulips nearby. i've enjoyed the 'impressionist watercolor' effect several of you have used in 'post' (as you call it) lately. since the closest i have to post is my coat tree i decided to see if i could emulate it by messing with settings and focus in the strong direct light available. i didn't get the effect i was hoping for in the time available but i do kinda like this one

snow geese lift off
12/01/08

i wish everyone could experience firsthand a large flock of snow geese suddenly taking flight. it is an awesome thing to witness. this is the best i could do to provide some of the experience tho from a distance. you'll have to imagine the indescribible noise of thousands of geese honking and gronking at once as well as so many wings flapping at once it creates a palpable noise. obviously sis and i succeeded in our quest for snow geese, at least from a distance, this week-end on our trip taking me home after the holiday. hopefully some of the pics i took during my trip will turn out. if so you'll probably get to see some as i process them this week. have a great week

little boss and beautiful visitor
07/12/08 (2of2)

the little boss was very excited to see this, her first ever large wild butterfly, and kept running to the backdoor every couple minutes to check on it. we all made trips back to see it many times while working the lunch shift. we don't get many like this in the city and really enjoyed our special treat

boats in the sunstream
11/10/08

shot this earlier this summer but it had some bad sun glares and things in it so i saved it aside until i had technology to try to do something with it. finally got some tech and trying to get the skills so here it is as my dp today. for thos of you that like camera tech and pics of same there's a new gallery you might want to sign in on here:

still half-asleep in the shower
08/25/08

had lovely rain showers for the past couple days. i like to walk in the rain and thought this hollyhock bud perfect subject for my daily. used the on camera flash for set very low for fill. i sure did enjoy the olympics. watched quite a bit live when i was awake in the middle of the night. the dust on the sensor is still annoyingly there, should've magically cleaned itself by now shouldn't it ;-) just one more necessary thing i've been letting slip. shall try to get on it this week

pretty little puddle
11/05/08

this tiny leaf was in the sidwalk expansion joint by the gutter. i actually walked past it and then stepped back as what it was registered. a couple different people stopped to see if i were ok, i was laying on the wet sidewalk half in the gutter; very kind of them tho one almost ran over my foot so i actually would've needed help. i don't have a macro lens so i got as close as i could and cropped it way down. the leaf and stem altogether are only about one and a half inches long. i thought the sand in it was really cool and treated the shot in post to emphasize it a bit. to all my fellow americans, let us now hope for the best and put political rhetoric aside

freshly popped 'shroom
11/06/08

another shot i laid down and got dirty for. never did get quite what i wanted here despite more than a dozen attempts, plus bracketing and a couple with flash. one of those cases where the ten percent the camera catches just can't match up to one's eye. (that sounds so much better than my skills just weren't up to the job). other than a slight tweak to the contrast and sharpness when i developed from raw this is as the camera saw it. to all y'all on the far side of the time-line have a great week-end and to the rest of you, hang on! the week-end's coming

sunny ivy leaf
02/01/09

saw lots of interesting and beautiful shots as i caught up some on the dailies. i've said it before but it bears resaying, its a pleasure to take part in such a project with such a fine bunch of photographers and people! thanks so much again for all the well wishes. other than looking through daily galleries i mainly caught up on my sleep today so missed most of our sunny day tho not all of it thankfully. i look forward to catching all the way up on your great pics today hopefully. enjoy your day

spider snapshot
12/05/08

grabbed this quick because it happened to be where i was shooting something else. this is still from my thanksgiving trip as i popped a high fever and didn't shoot anything, including myself - which is good i guess ;-) (couldn't anyway as don't have a gun right now anyway). this is cropped way down but i like it. posting early and off to bed. thanks for the kind comments on my 'paying respects' yesterday. hope y'all have a great week-end

standing tall
11/16/08

please check out the 'daily' by the little boss next in this gallery, i think she did a great job. the little boss and i took a break and went for a walk today. we stopped to visit friends and then i noticed the great late sun as we were walking back to the restaurant. the little boss just loved this idea and wanted to do a special pose, here:

grass green
05/29/08

another shot where i was playing with settings trying to figure this digital stuff out

for those of you who were relieved that i used the iris instead of the laundry you can see the shots i've shot in the laundry (not just yesterday) and decide for yourself if laundry rooms aren't interesting http://dedmanshootn.smugmug.com/gallery/5046709_9ue4F#274874550_mDvkH

snowverhang
12/27/08

this is the protetive overhang of bus loading bay number one at the downtown bellingham transit terminal. each of those panes is one foot wide so you can see how long and deep the snow hanging off it is. shot this on my way to work. didn't quite have what i was hoping for as the light was real dull as it was snowing pretty good again so i treated it with a bit of neon effect which made it look like a tarted up b&w which i quite like. we were supposed to thaw and have rain today (12/26). you can see how THAT worked in this that i shot walking home from work around 3pm, the blobs are snow coming down in a twenty-five mph breeze. http://dedmanshootn.smugmug.com/gallery/4855371_JgWrE#443452086_Gpkwh
it is finally warming up and beginning to melt (midnight) tho now they're issuing flood watches. my personal 'flood' hasn't reared its head again thankfully and, Lord willing, we may finally be seeing the last of this particular cold snap

posing spotted towhee
06/11/08

this lovely gent just insisted on having his picture taken. i was across the street looking for an angle on the armory building and he flew right up by me and started his 'chip'. he led me across the street and then flew up and posed in a lovely planter of flowers. i had my 18-55mm lens on tho so didn't shoot as it was too far but did find some things of interest right by me to shoot. i heard him start a steady 'chip' and looked up he was only about 8 feet away. i took a couple and, as he seemed to be enjoying it rather than nervous, decided to switch on my 85-200mm. he waited patiently while i did this and posed prettily for a couple more. since he didn't fly away or even appear nervous i reset and bracketed as the lens isn't made for my camera and can only be used manually and the light was tricky. he waited til i gotten two or three bracketed shots then flew off. lucky for me he was such a ham as this was the very last shot and the best by far of the lot. its almost as if he knew i'd gotten it right finally so he could go on his way. a very entertaining seven or eight minutes, as you can no doubt tell by my long-windedness

ancient roots
1000+ year old sitka spruce and DOD
quinault, wa

in memoriam rollin cooke walton, Dear Old Dad, gone to be with the Lord he loved 08/06/08

DOD always tried to encourage and help everyone. his love and compassion were a blessing to people beyond count. he was always ready with a helping hand and encouraging word. he had his faults, as do we all, but always took responsibility for his actions and tried to make amends if he had wronged. beloved by many, he will be sorely missed. DOD passed peacefully surrounded by family and friends who sang him some favorite hymns as he slipped from the bonds of this earth. gone but never forgotten r.i.p. DOD

this picture was shot at the end of september 2007 on the last, of many, trips that DOD and i took together. it is one of my faves of him. there have been many great men throughout history but i can think of no one i'd be prouder to call father. enlarge for best viewing and please click a thumbs up; i'd like this to be number one of the most popular pics of mine as a small tribute to a fine man

only me: the job
01/13/09

thees are dried asian chilis and a special seive for sifting the seeds out of them. i'm the only one at work that the dust and oils from these don't bother much so i prep all of them that we use. since we special ize in mandarin/ szechaun cuisine that's a considerable number each year. this isn't a great shot as i just grabbed it quick while working with the on board flash but thought you might like to see somehitng i've done alomst evey day i've worked for nin eyears. we get the chilkis bulk whole from china and i cut them into pieces and trim the stems and blemishes from them. once i've got enough cut i shake them in small batches in the seive until the seeds are out then dump them into the ready can for the boss to use. i have to go off into the back of the kitchen by myself when i shake as the dust is quite caustic and makes most people badly tear and sneeze. these type peppers are an ingrediant in many self-defense sprays but hardly bother me at all. i actually like to rub the dust into my arthritci hand. helps quite a bit

duck and forgot to duck
12/15/08

with the wicked winds we've been having i was thinking ..... LOL. there's no particular reason for this at all except i just felt like messing around and hope it'll bring a bit of a smile. sis and i have been enjoying all the many rubber duckie shots around smugmug over the past year and so i took the opportunity to nab these, owned by members of her group, when i visited her writing group back at thanksgiving. i'm blaming this image on my antibiotics and impending surgery ;-) the weather has gotten even colder and the wind is still charging along, i'm sure hoping it doesn't mess up my surgery as i really want to get it done. dug out my artic gear for the bus trip as our expected high today is 15F with thirty plus mph winds so its going to be a bit nippy to say the least. hope all y'all are safe warm and sharing joy with someone you love

hollyhock 'skirt' (altered) 2 of 2
10/22/08

it was a dark and stormy ni...er, day
12/28/08

it was dark cloudy and rainy all day, HURRAY!!! there's still quite a bit of snow and ice but the roads are basically clean and there hasn't been too serious flodding so far, except for those directly affected of course. wanted this dark and grainy so shot fast then turned up the sensitivity when i developed it from raw. posting early and off to bed. thank you all for your more than kind comments on my 'snowverhang'. very very encouraging. i've no particular confidence in my 'post' abilities as i've only even had the technology to do anything for a couple months. all of you still buried under ice and snow, who want a break anyway, sing with me - "i'm dreaming of a green new years...". posting early and off to bed

young gull doing a fly by
01/17/09

posting way late (5pm)and actually shot this just a couple hours ago. clipped the wing but i'm pretty happy with it anyway as i haven't used this lens or tried wingshots in months and months. been too tired and too busy lately. sure am missing seeing what's going on in the dailies. i plan to completely chill and pic browse tomorrow and, if i'm especially blessed, tonight. thanks for all the kind comments on my pics. hope your week-end is going great

holly, by golly ...um...me
11/15/08

came home early from work because it was slow and i was pretty shaky on my pins. knew i wasn't going do anything creative once i got home so i tried a couple snaps on the way home from the bus stop. it was a very gray day, i didn't want to use flash and as i said i was shaky on my pins. there's a huge holly tree right by my building door so i tried a 'quick' snap. darker and slower than i thought but i actually kind of liked the result. after a good nap and some supper i sharpend a bit here and blurred a bit there and...

"the noble dog, faithful and true, man's best friend. here i am keeping watch (and looking darn fine if i do say so myself) and am i appreciated? do i get any treats? is anyone taking my picture? ... oh...yeah...um...ok...so i got it pretty good. a fine fellow like me deserves it!"
06/27/08

this was actually shot at the same time as yesterday's dp but i liked it so well and was so down with allergies i decided to 'cheat'. i'll probably be able to post something but won't be commenting much if at all this weekend. i'm going down to shoot at the greenwood car show saturday, if you're in the greater seattle area its an event well worth making time and effort to take in - see info at the link below, and visiting my sis, b-i-l and DOD and his wife (and hopefully some extended fam and friends). hope everyone has a great weekend and some wonderful things to photograph.

plastic plant
10/24/08

didn't so much as take the camera out of the bag today alas. too busy and tired to even think about it. fell asleep when i got home from work and probably wouldn't have posted until at least tonight but the heater, building has original radiator system as far as i know, went wonky and i woke up to 80F so i opened my door and processed this from the other day. didn't quite have the POP i wanted so i wrapped it in super seal wrap to put in the fridge for later ;-) i'm really looking forward to having time and energy to spend going through galleries soon. have a great week-end all. the temps back to reasonable and the toothpicks aren't going to be enough to keep my eyes open much longer so i'm off to bed again

blue ice
12/17/08

thanks again for all the kind thoughts, well wishes and prayers. i'm healing very well and feeling good enough to go work a short shift today. this is a detail shot from the frozen fountain of yesterday which i was trying to make look more 'icy'. more or less what i was trying for and it was interesting trying. its warmed up into the high twenties tho still just as windy. we're expecting a good six inches of snow today though many of us are hoping that forcast is wrong and we don't get any. have a fine day

whatcom falls on a slightly overcast day
02/24/09

took a quick trip to whatcom falls with my sis after the party of yesterday's dp, no it wasn't my birthday i just don't write very clear captions i fear - sorry - but thanks for the well wishes anyway. i'm using this shot i took then because i just wasn't up to trying anything much today. i think this has a completely different look and feel from my last daily here (see link below) but i quite like it, especially the water below the falls and the rocks below the water. one of the things i enjoy most about photography is how different things can appear from day to day, or even moment to moment on cloudy days. endlessly fascinating. i really enjoyed the dailies today whenever my head let me look at them. its a privilege to be in the same web with y'all

reflecting on shadows and self-portraits
10/27/08

when i noticed the reflection from a window on these stairs and the long rays from the lowering sun i just had to try a shadow sp. not quite as sharp as i'd hoped but basically what i was shooting for. has anyone else been having trouble staying logged in while commenting this past week? thanks. have a great week y'all

bus shelter bench in the morning sun (my version of the otis redding classic)
02/17/09

hopefully i'm back, and not too much the worse for waer. totally tired out but much happier since i just spent an hour or two with some of your wonderful photos. posting early then to bed early too. have a great week all

dark berries white snow
12/24/08

the hedge that has these berries is right behind my 'home' bus stop and a favorite subject of mine. we're still well below freezing and had more snow and expect more yet today. as much as people like a 'classic' white christmas i think most everyone here would like a thaw for christmas. very best wishes to all for a day of joy and blessing. i'm throwing on a link to another pic of this hedge, just because, that is my fav so far if you'd care to look:

double double portrait on a studebaker bumper
07/06/08

i'm finally getting some of the pics from the car show last week-end processed. this bumper was so mirror bright i couldn't resist taking a portrait of my sis and me, especially when i saw how the image warped with the curve in the bumper. i'm fighting a cold so decided to use this today and stay in and sleep a lot

autumn leaves and wet grass
10/06/08

had some more wonderful rain today, love that nice clean air. this was right by the bus stop shouting 'snap me, snap me' so i obliged. hope y'all have a great week

tree detritous and snow
01/02/08

i tried to comment yesterday but didn't get to all your pics. don't know if the double shift was too much or if i was just having a down day or both. hopefully i'll be catching up this week-end. your continued kindness in commenting, and the content of those comments, is very encouraging. thank you all so much! crashed and burned way early so i'm posting this much later than is my wont. this is the last shot i'll stick you with from my sunday shoot with my sis but i just didn't have the energy to shoot anything yesterday either. i have another bus pic i got at the same time and place as the latern the other day if you're interested here:

tiger swallowtail butterfly (i think)
07/12/08 (1of2)

we had a beautiful visitor at work today. he flew up, exhausted, and landed on our front door just as i was getting off the bus. i got a piece of paper and urged him onto it then carried him around to our back door in the shade. after an hour or so of resting he recovered somewhat and crawled up our brickwall which is where i got this shot once the initial lunch rush had been served. there is a second post today, at the "please, please, PLEASE!" request of the little boss, of her and this beauty. this is the first large live butterfly she's seen 'in the wild'. i'm off to bed once again but i think i am a bit better today than yesterday. rotten colds! i'm taking the week-end off so shall be looking through what i've missed, and boy am i looking forward to that!, when and as i have energy. thanks for all the well wishes

under the bathroom sink
01/05/09

was reflecting today, put in the mood by the great early challenge post i saw, and didn't go out to enjoy our storm, wasn't much of a storm by local standards only about 40-50mph winds and some snow that turned to rain, so i had nothing for a dp. had to wrestle the ants for control of the bathroom again (note to self - asap go to the farmers co-op and get a permanent solution for that little problem) and thought 'hey why not shoot that?', which led to more reflecting. when i was in early grade school in southwest pennsylvania we were allowed to watch a half hour of tv a day on school days and an hour on week-ends. i alternated between 'the cisco kid' and another local fav i think i remember as 'mr. wizard'. 'tudor the turtle' would always ask mr. wizard to work magic so he could become some cool new thing he was excited about and it would never work out like poor tudor thought it would. the show would end with mr. wizard returning everything to how it'd been and then telling tudor "always always i tell you tudor: be just what you is, and not what you is not. those who is what they is have the happiest lot." words i'd like to say i always live by but i put on masks sometimes and tell those little 'white' lies and generally screw things up pretty good from time to time. when i catch myself at it i always try to remind myself who i actually am and then be that man. so what does this incredibly long-winded commentary have to do with this shot? when i contemplated sticking you with another plumbing and 'junk' pic from my apartment i asked myself "self, what kind of photographer are you?" i've no technical hpptographic skill liike so many of you have, and even less with digital and software, nor do i have that one particular photographic 'thing' that so many of you have. i like pretty much everything. so... to answser the question on the table... i am a lazy button pusher who will point the camera at most anything and push the button and post the result. i'm satisfied with this, though it probably ain't gonna bank much, as i just plain enjoy all the wonderful things there are in this interesting beautiful, though often apinful and ugly too, world. my late DOD said he was proud, to many other people when i wasn't even around to overhear so its probably even true ;-) , of me for doing the pics and this smug site. that is more than enough satisfaction for me. its a new year and i'm hopefully finally shaking this infection and getting better than i've been for some time. hopefully this will result in more energy and me better handling things that much need doing to keep body and soul together and indoors but don't expect much change in my posts :-) . (i will try to be less long-winded in the future but no promises)

windsurfer heading out
02/18/09

got a new 500mm f8 lens so was making sure it worked. going to take some getting used to and i'll need a better tripod i think. never had anything like it before very different but i susupect i'm going to like it. i apologize if any of my comments have be garbled and mis-spelled. when i get real tired my brain and hands don't always seem to communicate well. i really liked the bright sun highlighting the sail and wake. on the far shore you can see why bellingham is no longer a busy port. up until a few decades ago that was a direct channel they kept dredged. now its quite a snadbar! say something kind to someone today

wet day on the coast 'watercolor'
11/04/08

for all my fellow amis (aka 'murikins) vote today but even more importantly let's all pull together regardless of who wins, else we all lose. this is my take on a 'watercolor' effect. no presets were used, just manipulated light, sharpenss and contrast a bit. i centered the horizon deliberately when i shot this as it just seemed to work better that way to my eye. original is here if you'd like to see:

http://dedmanshootn.smugmug.com/gallery/6113018_HA9uK#P-2-15

addendum: is it just me or is this more of an 'oil paint' effect?

sunny flower
09/30/08

had "one of those days" today and just didn't shoot anything. shot this the other day. hope your day was great and your week is even better. just a few tablespoons of water were lost in yesterdays shot. i set everything up, turned on the water and snapped the shutter as soon as my hand was clear. water is one of our most precious resources and i do try to not waste it. the sink is original with the building as far as i know which puts it at approximately eighty years old

honeybee on blue
06/23/08

don't know what this bush and flower are but i sure like them. apparently the insects do too. i saw at least five different types counting this gal. i've been hearing that the bees are dying/disappearing and i can believe it as this is the first honeybee i've seen this year tho i've seen many types of wasp and bumbles. i thought it cool how bright yellow and bulging the pollen she's carrying is. i don't have macro and was too lazy to carry my tripod, even tho i got a fine new shoulder case for it from my fam, so this is just my 18-55mm zoom hand-held. you who know flowers and plants, who have time and inclination, do you know what this is

one of the reasons, besides the wonderful staff, that the fairhaven library is one of my favorite places to go in town. i manually preset the focus on the chair then set the camera on my bag on a table and shot with available light - which is why the light is two colors as there's lovely long windows behind me. for those of you who liked the dark colors of yesterdays dp i reshot more of the whole bed which you can see - and there's pics from inside, including a bigger view of the area in this shot, (and ouside) the library too - http://dedmanshootn.smugmug.com/gallery/4855371_JgWrE#308101796_y8W58

i can't paint
11/25/08

was cleaning up some old files and found this which i shot, but didn't at all like, at the same time as a previous daily ( http://dedmanshootn.smugmug.com/gallery/4931081_5dSa9#285175111_nw882 ). my sis and late mum paint beautifully but i missed that talent, along with good handwriting and many others. i was admiring some impressionist and post-impressionist works on-line today and decided to see what i could do with this alnog those lines. no preset filters were harmed in the making of this image, strictly my own play with tone, highlights and sharpness. as i've noted before 'y'all are MUCH too kind!' i'm glad you found the moss flowers interesting at least even tho the shot was pumba. bless all y'all

overcast, snow geese and mt. baker
01/26/09

this is part of why i was busy this week-end. sis a friend and i went looking for snow geese in the morning yesterday. wasn't much sun and it was cold but one tends to foget that when watching such beauty. would like this to have more depth and clarity but i'm pretty happy for hand-held and in a hurry, i at least have snow geese and baker in the smae shot. i never tire of watching these beauties or the swans that winter over in our area too. we also saw a couple dozen bald eagles of various ages but i didn't get any pics as the light was too low and they were too far away for my meager equipment. loved seeing them anyway and had a great day. thanks for making it happen sis! have a great week all

this is my christmas greeting to all. i like visual and word games of almost any and all types so i did one for my 'card' this year. you can check the link below for the correct caption if you need/want it. as the coming of the Saviour of the world is remembered and celebrated i wish you all, regardless of what holiday you celebrate and especially if you're feeling the holiday blues, peace and joy and the appreciation of your many blessings

wind and snow out my window
12/14/08

we're having a pretty decent storm right now, not 'the end of the world' that the tv news always seems to try to make things but its about 18F snowing and about a 30-40mph wind. i'm quite glad for my sometimes overzelous radiator tonight :-) hope you and yours are safe and warm

late afternoon looking toward the olympic mtns
04/05/09

didn't actually even get out of my apartment so had to pull this one from some pics i shot a while ago but hadn't gotten posted yet. i'm doing ok and slept real well, all the way til noon today, so i'm doing quite a bit better. don't know if i'll get outside today either but.... whattayagonna do!? its sunny and over 50F so there's good incentive to get out. hope you're having a great week-end and for you who are getting blizzards and such i hope and pray you're safe and warm and get relief from winter soon. i surely enjoyed being able to spend what energy i had looking through the many great pics yesterday tho i faded far too soon alas. thanks to all who looked and commented on the little boss's pics, especially the fine pear flower shot on the link on her deer daily shot. she'll be absolutely thrilled when she gets to read the comments

two tugs a barge, clouds and a sun break

this is not a new pic but my old shipmate sigvar died today. he worked on tugs a long time and i like this best of what few tugs pics i have. sigvar loved all ships and boats but tugs most of all. his fav photographer was: http://jcrae.smugmug.com/ , who is my fav for ships and boats of all types as well as many other nice pics also. i hope this finds you and yours well and in good spirits. happy cinco de mayo for those who celebrate it. tell someone you love them today.

r.i.p you salty old seadog

lots of interesting ship and boat pics: http://jcrae.smugmug.com/

fever mask
05/20/08

not real pleased with this tho its the closest i could come to what i wanted with the energy and equipment available. was hoping to get much more of a 'death mask' effect but wasn't up to the challenge i fear. fevers have always laid me by the heels and i'm known to say "first you feel like you're going to die...then you wish you would". many many thanks for your kind wishes for health. i am getting better and putting this mask out there has helped with the post fever depression. Lord willing this will be the last you hear of this particular bout with a bug

spring cones
05/15/08

this is one of the culprits firing up my allergies. though that wasn't why i was unable to go out the other day i very much appreciate the kind words and encouragement from y'all. this tree is right by my favorite library branch and it was so pretty in the evening light i just had to shoot it

curly candles
04/18/09 (1of2)

well its been one year since i started posting in the dailies tho i haven't made a years worth of posts yet, mostly due to the many days missed recently alas. its my b-day and these were the candles on my cake at the party held for me by fam and friends at the restaurant. that was five hours ago (i had to take a nap when i got home, still) and i'm still full!, and happy. thanks all for such a great time! i hired the little boss as my professional photog (handed her the cam and said "take whatever pictures you want to and make sure to get some of the guests" and she put the strap over her neck, snapped a quick pic and said "i'm a professional photographer!" brought me such a smile i just had to share it). she was worth every dollar i paid, which would be true even if it were more than one ;-) . her 'daily' is next with a link to the great pics she got. i'm going to have to start asking her for pics tips pretty soon i think :-) . she got such great pics i'm thinking i may have to hirte her for the next event i shoot. there's a soso pic of a real nice (if not quite so cool as last years here: http://dedmanshootn.smugmug.com/gallery/4931081_5dSa9#282000451_EfJeG ) cake here:

04/01/09

thanks so much to all of you for your care and concern. hopefully i'm back and will be posting and commenting regularly again. really looking forward to catching up on the great things here on smug, the dailies especially, as i've hardly even turned my puter on, let alone spent much time smuggin, since i last posted. did manage to do the annual picture framing event again this year. the gallery is in my 'featured' if you're interested. i'm including a link to one pic that won a prize in their 'recycled' contest as i thought it was just too cool. thanks again, i hope you're all doing tons better than i've been.

the very first of spring!
02/21/09

these are the very first flowers i've seen bloom in 2009. they're on a south slope that gets sun all day except a bit of shade at the start and end of the days. nothing else i've seen is close to blooming yet but these sure were a welcome sight on my way home from work. have a great week-end all

late afternoon wire chair detail
04/02/09

this is a detail from another of the 'artsy benches' around town. this one is no more comfortable than the one i shot last month but with the nice sun at least looks a bit cooler i think. i was overwhelmed by your too too kind welcome back! hardly know what to say but THANK YOU! its such a pleasure and privilege to be involved with such great photogs and people. had intended to spend a lot of time relaxing in the dailies last night but darn oole life has this way of not cooperating alas, hopefully shall tonight. almost didn't get this posted as i slept through my alarm and i need to get going to get to work. really wanted to get another post up tho. each one tends to make the next easier after you've been away a while i think. thanks again for all the kind words and wishes. bless all y'all!

urban deer (by the little boss 8yrs old)
04/04/09 (2of2)

the little boss and i went for a walk because she was out of school early and lunch business was fairly slow. we ran into these deer up the alley and this shot is hers. i think she did a good job. we only had the 18-55mm so i think she did a good job learning to stalk also. there are some other pics she took 'today' (these were shot yesterday but i crashed early and didn't get them posted) here:

sunny pink spring sproinging
03/14/09

left a bit early for work so i could walk around the block to see if any flowers were coming yet. saw one daffodil bud and these beauties. you could almost literally watch the buds popping as the sun warmed them. i think (hope) that the snow is gone and this winter is over here. these sure brightened my day anyway. totally zonked out when i got home yesterday and roused just long enough to watch 'numbers' and go to bed. sorry i missed seeing the dailies and posting. shall try to catch up this week-end. hope you're having a great one and that spring is making its presence felt for y'all here in the northern hemisphere and that summer is still hanging on for y'all in the southern. even tho its ice i noticed my sis posted one of my fav pics of hers so far so i'm including a link for any interested in a real cool shot:

neighbor's tulips
04/26/09

just a quick snap i just had to take. these are directly below my window and are just so pretty and brightened my days as i'd sit here being a good boy and resting that i just had to run (more like almost crawl my wind is so bad but....) the stairs and grab a quick snap in the sun. the sun felt good as did the fresh air. haven't left my apartment since wednesday. am doing quite a bit better tho i'm being good and continuing bed rest as i REALLY don't wish to risk a relapse and end up hospitalized. hate to be in hospitals. thanks all for your kind thoughts, prayers and wishes. VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. thanks for the e-mails too. brightened my day when i'd muster my energy to turn on the puter and check quick. had a couple good print sales lately too which cheered me a lot too. shall be checking out a few pics today while my energy lasts. i'll be good and lay down as soon as i tire, despite that i'd MUCH rather be going through the great daily, and other greqt smug, galleries. hope this finds you happy, healthy, wealthy and wise (or the best three of four anyway - i haven't worried about the wealthy much since i grew up and hopefully got a bit wiser). for all you still in the snow or being boiled by the heat wave i do ho[pe you get relief soon

ice bars do not a prison make
02/25/09

forgot to take my camera when i went to do laundry today so you're spared a lundry room pic for another week at least ;-) found some unfinished files from december and rahter liked this one so decided to go with it rather than cudgel my poor ole head for something creative in my apaprtment. thanks so much for the concern and well-wishes about my headaches. please don't worry. these are cluster headaches and really nasty but i'm rather used to navigating anyway as i've had quite severe migraines for four decades. i have had as much treatment as i can afford tho i've found ways to just deal that work for me. i also 'just deal' with the ramifications and have done as much there as can be done right now too. your kind words, thought and prayers mean more than i can say. y'all are a real blessing to a tired sore old man. your pics and comments are often the highlight of my day. God bless you all! tell someone how much you love them today

sunny cherry blossom
04/04/09 (1of2)

meant to get this and the little bosses pic (next in this gallery. she got a nice pic of some deer from our quick walk at lunch) posted last night but crashed way too early', woke up late too so just getting it done now (about 11am). am really looking forward to getting into some serious viewing time this week-end. hope y'all are having a great one. smile at someone today

little lost grebe
02/20/09

shot this for the beautiful color and reflection and didn't even notice the grebe til i was inspecting it in one-hundred for dust spots etc. this is the base of the walkway down to the pier walk in fairhaven. the top of this walkway is where i shot this dp ( http://dedmanshootn.smugmug.com/gallery/4753036_v9Lqd#466249180_ZBJNf ) which would be to the far left in this shot. have a great week-end and tell someone you love them today

pigeon taking flight
06/08/08

you get this today because i had a (even the docs don't know exactly what it is but its at least an order of magnitude worse than a migraine)headache and also had a problem with my feet so i couldn't wear shoes or even my sandals. during the late afternoon sun i limped barefoot down the stairs knowing i could probably at least get one of the ubiquitous pigeons from my stoop. not a fancy subject or shot but at least i got it here. it is a very great pleasure to participate in this daily community and i thank you all

"acrylic" painting
01/27/09

was in a bit of a mood today and very tired. developed some of the pics i tried on saturday then started fiddling in elements. just kinda zombied and kept fiddling then figured 'what the heck' i might as well post this. was going for that textured acrylic painting look i remember as being popular in the 70s or 80s, time runs together any more. looking through the dailies and other smug pics was the highlight of my day. thanks all you creative talented people for sharing

lines and light shadow
05/06/09

i appreciate the kind words about my memorial pic yesterday. i'm no old salt like sigvar was but have spent time out on the beautiful briney when i was much younger and healthier. there's nothing quite like the deep blue i feel. have a great day

same tulips, different day
05/04/08

this is the same tulip bed as my 04/28/08 shot but under much different conditions. the day here is overcast, tho still fairly bright, and breezy. i waited for moments when things appeared still and shot. i was testing settings again and like this the best

a shore post
04/03/09

the light was poor and my eyes were poorer, i'm still not sure this is in focus but its what i got so its what you get ;-) . y'all have a great week-end

fiesta!
02/23/09

we had a triple b-day celebration today at espinoza'a, my fav mexican restaurant in town. the hats are supposed to be on the b-day girls but the big boss put hers on the little boss instead because she didn't want to mess up her hair. from left to right are: my sis, the big boss, the little boss, and our good friend who's like family. we ate til we were stuffed, had some tasty b-day cake to top things off and just generally had a fine ole time. have a headache alas so posting early and laying down. do somehitng to make yourself laugh today

this was shot by the little boss for her daily today. she said she'd moved the camera a bit and we liked the bokeh

mini me and my fam
10/28/08

i tried touching these scans up a bit with my meager skills in elements. i go at elements the same way i go at digital in general: pick some settings, push the button, see what happens and make note of it. from left to right these are me about one and DOD, me about two with mum and dad, me about five with my sis. the response to my shadow sp quite overwhelmed me. i sent an e- mentioning such to my sis her response is quite good i think. look on yesterday's pic's comments for 'quinn' if you care to see it. there have been so many great pics and comments lately. much appreciated as i've been a bit down, physically and emotionally, lately and have so much appreciated being able to share in such beauty and fun. thanks and blessings to you all

out of work window chain
01/15/09

had a really long day that started early with a bit of a kerfuffle in the alley at 5am (gunshot, very small caliber, i suspect was accidental from the look of things when i looked out). had to schlep down near seattle (seventy miles each way) straight from work for some business so i didn't even get home until after 10pm. this is a window here in the building that's been nailed shut with the restraint shain hanging for as long as i've lived here. best i could do for a dp today. hopefully i can catch up on your shots tomorrow. have a great day

hydrangea with ladybug
07/24/08

got down to do laundry today so snuck over and nabbed a snap of the neighbor's hydrangea while it was cycling. hydrangea flowers look so odd but i've always loved them. very bummed out; was going to be down visitng sis and b-i-l and also had permission to shoot the 'tour de peaks" bicycling event but just too weak from this ##$%^#% CRUD!! such is life but there's a very good chance i'd've had some paying photos plus the fun of going with family. i'm not working yet again today but friday i'm going in if a have to drag myself down the street with my lips! can tell i'm finally getting better because actually have the enrgy to be frustrated. thanks yet again for all the kind thoughts words and prayers, forgot to mention the other day DOD says same. he's hanging in and still in good spirits. it helps that he gets plenty of calls and visitors. hope this finds you and those you love doing as well as can possibly be. i'm putting the tour de peaks link in case anyone is interested.

evening crow cawing
03/12/09

slept through my alarm this morning, haven't done that in an age, but managed to just make it to work on time. had to come home early because i was still so tired and shaky. slept for several hours and feeling some better. the recent winds had partially dislodged one of my screens. while i had it out i saw some crows coming down the alley. still had my 500mm on and handy so i grabbed it and shot. this wasn't in the best focus or light so i played with it a bit and i'm sticking you with the result. sure enjoyed the great daily pics, cheered me considerably. tell someone you love them today

melting down the drain
03/02/09

please stand by we're experiencing technical difficulties. we had pretty strong winds over the week-end and it knocked out the power several times. popped my surge protecter a couple times too, the last time permanently. i had this uploaded to put in my 'odd picture' gallery but you're getting it for a daily because i'm at the library and can't upload anything here. i shall be back up and running from home in a couple more hours. i'm looking forward to seeing as many of your pics as i can. hope everyone is well and doing ok, especially those of you that got hit with storms. shot this thursday when arriving at work and the snow was melting off the roof in the bright sunshine. didn't really catch the water the way i wanted to but only had time to grab a quick snap freehand on my way in to start my shift. i kind of like the odd look to the water anyway

santa and friend
01/04/09

used waht awake time i had today goi9ng through the great pics i'd missed in the dailies (y'all are one creative, talented bunch!) and didn't even think of shooting something. actually might not have posted but i was clearing some old files and noticed this i shot for my late mum's best friend last christmas and figured she woouldn't mind if i used it. so many of y'all had such great decorative shots this christmas which i quite enjoyed so... better late than never i hope. have a great week. be kind to someone today

the drydocks at fairhaven
02/03/09

boulevard park and fairhaven are probably the places i shoot the most. there's just so many interesting and beautiful things and the mood is different virtually every time i go. i shot this from the other end of pier walkway that was top left in yesterday's shot. completely different mood which i really like. i darkened and sharpened the contrast to enhance the sihouettes which i thought were very striking this moody hazy afternoon. be kind to someone today

frosty plexiglass abstract
01/24/09

grabbed this at the bus stop on the way to work this morning. the lines and textures were fascinating but i didn't relly have enough time to grab too many shots. i tried about six before the bus arrived and liked this best. survived the double shift, had a really good day actually. the little boss was with us for the dinner shift and was very very helpful and worked hard. made me real proud. managed to get a quick look through the thumbs of the daily popular and looked like some good stuff. i'm too tired and have to be up and out in the morning again so i'm off to bed but truly looking forward to when i get a chance to go through what i've missed at leisure. thanks so much for the kind comments on the leaf. i really wasn't as happy with it as i'd like but then i think we all criticize our own work the hardest which is why a forum such as this is so helpful, in addition to the pleasure of meeting so many great people and seeing all their great creative pics. thank you all! enjoy your week-end

iron, stone and glow
12/30/08

didn't get to do my wildcat entry to the challenge because we unexpectedly had no rain, at least when i had a chance to shoot anything. i was going to do an sp standing in the rain, 'not enough sense to come in out of the rain' ;-) so you get this i shot when i picked up my mail yesterday. this is the left, as one faces the building, of a pair of great lamps bracketing the entrance to the post office in the federal building downtown bellingham. i was overwhelmed by the response to my whatcom falls shot! thank yu all so very much. i've said before "y'all are much too kind", many blessing upon you. as you think about this year coming to an end remember and enjoy again the many blessings and joys that you had and may they help mitigate any loss and pain

unusual sunset at bellingham, washington, usa

the moment of take-off
03/09/09

it was another very grey day and snowed on me while i was out shooting for a bit. i got home and had to take a nap, which ended up being almost three hours, and of course when i woke up it was bright, beautiful and sunny... sigh. was shooting freehand with my new 500mm, its no big deal but for accurate info sake its a regular 500mm not a mirror lens, which is very tricky to focus and my hands were shaky but i think i got about what i could with this one. had a good time doing it which is the most important thing anyway. half-froze my fingers but that's ok too ;-) had to sleep again this evening for a while so still didn't get to all the pics i want to tho i have gotten to see some really great stuff in the daily galleries i've gotten to. its been said before but its a genuine privilege to be part of this with y'all. off to bed after a hard day's napping. have a great safe successful week

little boss pair, not the usual portrait
01/20/09

becasue of the holiday we were graced with the little boss's presence at the restaurant. business was slow so the little boss and i played games and went for a quick walk around the block. we still had sun! so i decided to try a couple different style portraits with my 200mm, was hoping to see and nab some birds but none anywhere, to see what would happen while we were out. i couldn't decide which i wanted to post so went with both. that actually tooke me quite a while as something glitched in adobe and wouldn't repair so i had to delete and reinstall it completely. used up much of my time and energy i'd hope to use looking at pics but whattaya gonna do?! on the plus side had a glitch in my cam go away so i can actually clean the sensor YAY! so i guess i came out better than even as elemenst is fine now too. posting a bit early and off to bed. share a smile with someone today

learning the abc's
01/30/09

this little statue is by the parking lot at my bank. i shot this last week but am using it today anyway. i have had such a terrible head-ache i had to come home from work early today partially blind. did get to look at some of your great pics when i had a bit of a break but its back full force now. sorry i ddin't get to all of you. interesting comments on my beard! thank you. posting early and off to lie down in the dark. do have a great week-end and say something nice to someone today
