About the work

   

The images here weren't taken in extraordinary settings or under extraordinary circumstances. More often than not, they were taken on ordinary days, doing ordinary things: watching the dancing reflections from waves of passing boat traffic; a sunday afternoon drive through wheat and canola fields in eastern washington; looking at the corroded, rusty back-end of an old tugboat; an early morning walk on the beach, watching the moon set and finding a pile of fishing nets laying on the sand.

This blog is attached to my main photography site, h3images.com and is mostly about...photography. Fair warning though: because photography is about so much more than pointing a camera at something and firing the shutter, other topics and features that may not seem to be 100% photography related will seep in. Hopefully that won't be off-putting. If it is, just click "home" on the navigation bar above and go back to looking at images.

I hope what you see and read here will inspire and raise your awareness for all of the extraordinarily ordinary beauty which, as the old hymn says, “…over and around us lies...” Look around - it's everywhere!

Happy imaging -- bill

gear & workflow

Cameras: nearly all images on the site were taken with Nikon film and digital cameras; most native film images are from slides which were later scanned; digital images are generally shot using nikon's RAW file format.  Look here for a good discussion of why RAW is such a great way to shoot.

Workflow: my images aren't manipulated beyond basic levels, curves, white balance and sometimes slight saturation adjustments. my goal is to present images that are as close to original scene as possible. 

Printing: all printing is done with Epson printers using archival inks and matte papers, usually from Epson and Moab.

Illuminating Mystery

DateFriday, March 27, 2009 at 01:12AM

 
Christine Paintner is a friend of ours who runs Abbey of the Arts, a site chalked full of rich spiritual and inspirational content.  Christine also writes and publishes a great deal of content in books and journals that feature her work as well as others'.  Her Spring 2008 Reflective Art Journal is titled Illuminating Mystery: Creativity as a Spiritual Practice and features the work of several artists who she's interviewed for a Sacred Artist Interview series on the Abbey site - you can read more about it here.  I was interviewed by Christine last year and part of that conversation and a favorite image from this site are featured in Illuminating Mystery.  Please spend some time browsing the Abbey website -- you won't be disappointed.
