From the tiny
mid-century modern bed to the craftsman lamp to the neo-classic
chair this room is a mish-mash of styles. Sometimes that works,
this time it didn’t.

    Make Your Wish

    I believe this is a beautiful idea during this gimme-gimme holiday season.

    1) Make a post in your blog/journal containing your 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from something cheap and simple, to a your very own country. Include a method of contacting you if it isn’t already well know.

    2) Look around amongst your friends and the blogs and journals that you read and see if there are any wishes you can afford to grant. If there is, and it’s in your heart to do so, then give. If you have the ability to “tag” in whatever you use to blog, you may considering using the tag “makeyourwish” so others can find your list more easily.

    There are no rules, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you’ll have the joy of knowing you made someone’s holiday special.

    My list:

    1. original art by YOU and other LIVING art
    2. photographs and drawings of animals for the baby’s room
    3. human subjects for photography projects
    4. A Nikon D300
    5. a hiking/camping partner
    6. peace within and without
    7. large, empty-ish, enclosed spaces for photography projects (warehouses, barns, garages, photo studios, etc)
    8. mostly natural land to use for photography projects (fields, pastures, woods, etc)
    9. secrets
    10. a device to allow for nearly instantaneous transportation (see any number of sci-fi series for reference design, i.e. Star Trek, Star Gate, etc)

    JPGMag Submission: surroundings

    unused railway (edition 4)

    I’ve decided to enter my first JPG Magazine Submission in the “Surroundings” category. I’d be honored if you’d take the time to go vote for it.

    First the image: You might remember seeing a similar image from me in the past. In fact, that image is one of my most popular on Flickr. I had to edit it again in order to submit it to JPG Magazine because of their photo requirements. They don’t allow extensive editing and that particular photo was a blending of three images taken at different exposure levels with heavy use of masking in Photoshop. The version you see above uses only levels and curves adjustment, some color balance correction, and a bit of sharpening and everything you see comes from the same source image instead of taking parts from three different places.

    Finally, JPG Magazine: I’ve know about it for several years and I’m still not sure if I think it’s a good thing or a blah thing but I’ve decided that it’s not an evil thing, and, therefore, worth trying. So this is my first submission. Accepted works get a 1yr subscription to the magazine and $100. In this category, select images will get win a $600 5MP camera phone. It’s not a whole lot but, then again, submitting isn’t really about making money.

    So, once again, if you’re so inclined, I’d really appreciate a quick visit and your vote for unused railway at JPG Magazine.

    Thanks.
