Well this is what I hope is an effective way to get my work and my rambling thoughts about Art, Architecture and Photography as well as Old Cars (those are 1911 Sunbeams above on the current banner) and Railroading.
I haven't delved into the "Blogasphere" far enough to realize what the most effective format is.
I'm hoping to set up a series of "folders" for all of the above subjects as well as the inevitable Misc. folder.
I'd like to have my ramblings somewhat organized so that anyone who might be brave enough to want to follow the brick show might not have to go too far afield. If for nothing else it might help me better organize myself.
For the moment I'm going to push publish and see what happens....
Wish me luck

Well after a long period while I was getting to get used to posting my Art and Photographs on Facebook I thought I'd see if I can pay some attention to this Blog.
In the interim the focus of this Blag has focused a bit differently and I seem to be spending more time on the Photo side and a bit less in the 3D drawings and constructions.
This will all merge together eventually but in the meantime I'm getting quite an education (re-education?) about analogue photography.
I'm getting learning about some of the more exotic films such as Eastman (Kodak) Double-X a 35mm film which is a spin off from the Black & White (B&W) cine movie world.
I'm learning to love it.
Contrasty with rich velvety blacks.
The shot here is another new film to me. as is all the Large Format films in that size.
I started using AristaEDU 100 speed because its a student film and therefore vastly less expensive than the more pricy Ilford and Kodak that I was more familiar with.
I figuring I was a self educating photographer and was trying to avoid worrying about the "high spread" film until I felt more secure. I have, however, found out that Arista's 400 speed sheet film is supposed to really very special.
Next box.
The "portrait" below was shot taken on the aforementioned film and with my Crown Graphic Pacemaker (no coronary connection) with 4" by 5" (4x5) film on a lateish afternoon on Bank Street in New London CT.
If you look at the lower right hand corner you'll see the shadows that I used to drive off the cars that otherwise might have cluttered the shot.
