Playing chess, big chess
Does the blur signify motion and dynamism in 3D like it can in 2D, or is it a problem? Do we have less tolerance for movement in 3D? If yes, is it just a convention or do we need to be able to see the entire image clearly for the illusion to work well? I have another shot of this scene without the chess players that is clear but static.
Original slide shot August 24, 2010 at the Hariot Bay Inn on Quadra Island in British Columbia with a tripod-mounted Heidoscop with Provia 100P at 1/100th at f25.
On the way to Long Beach, NY
Everyone except the boy seems quite serious about their trek across the wide expanse of sand to or from the seashore, oblivious of the guy with the funny camera.
Original slide shot during the summer of 2002 with a tripod-mounted Sputnik with Provia 100P, exposure unrecorded.
Reaching for the ray of sun
Certain species of trees, such as the Western hemlock in the foreground, tolerate shade and remain small for years in the undergrowth waiting for an opening in the canopy to initiate rapid growth.
Original slide shot August 23, 2010 off the Lupin Falls Trail in Strathcona Provincial Park on Vancouver Island in British Columbia with a tripod-mounted Heidoscop with Provia 100P at 1 second at f25.
Lifeguards, Long Beach NY
There is something contradictory about lifeguards. They represent authority and serious responsibility but also good times, youth and summer. There are long periods of idleness interspersed with action and occasionally crisis. The serious gaze of the lifeguard in the foreground is echoed by the people behind him, while the lifeguard on the chair faces the other way as she blows a warning on her fluorescent orange whistle.

Kilgore Falls Top
Top view of Falls, late Autumn. Shot on Velvia(?) w/ TL 120
Kilgore Falls
2nd tallest waterfall in MD, (about 10′ high, actually) in the northern part of my county. Used in the Disney film “Tuck Everlasting.” Shot on Velvia w/ TL 120
Renfest King and Queen
October Maryland Renfest couple taken w/ either Provia 100 shot at 200, or Provia 400x w/ TL-120. Graininess is most noticeable in skin tones, but the costume details do well
Wildwood Rides
Night scene at Morey’s Pier in Wildwood NJ. shot w/ TL-120 on E200(?)
Trail with Downtown Glendale
Running back on the trail crest is just as scenic as reaching the top. There are many people hiking and running, so it is rare to photograph this area on a peak day with no people. You can see a runner zipping by in the distance, causing retinal rivalry between the Land R images.
The fun with the Fuji GA645w is that I am willing to take it where I would not take a bigger camera. Hope you enjoyed these images.
Location – Griffith Park, January 1st 2011
Technical – Fuji GA645w (cha-cha no slide bar), Fuji Provia F100
Hollywood Sign and Reservoir
The Hollywood Sign is fenced off and well protected by surveillance; helicopters will come get you if you try to vandalize it. You can go up to the trail peak just behind the Hollywood sign which is across from the radio towers seen in the distance from the previous image. This hike affords one premium 360° views, perhaps the best of Los Angeles anywhere.
