"Fantasy Dahlia" My Latest Digital Art

Sorry I haven't posted for awhile!  My PC crashed, along with all of my photo files, which took me a few weeks to restore to my new iMac.  It's taking a bit of time to get used to the Mac operating system, but I'm back!  I hope you enjoy my latest floral...it's one of my favorites!

Exciting News! My work has been published!

I don't usually "toot my own horn", but I received wonderful news last week that three of my photos were being published in B&W + Color Magazine.  I received my copy of the magazine yesterday...and there they were!  This is the first time I have had any of my work published in a major magazine, so it is quite a thrill for me.  The magazine has 35,000 subscribers, and is a high end fine art photography publication.

The following is a copy of the email I received, and the issue numbers, if any of you would like to view the work:

"Your entry in our COLOR Portfolio Contest 2011 has been selected for a Merit Award. This means that several images out of your portfolio will be published in the Special Issue #86 of B&W + COLOR magazine scheduled to arrive on newsstands the first week of September. There are only 67 winners in this category (out of a total of 480 entries comprising 778 portfolios, and approximately 8500 images), so you can be confident that we felt your work stood out from the rest in a way that deserved this special attention. Once again, congratulations!"


The photos below were the ones selected.  The portfolio was suppose to consist of a theme...my entry consisted of some of my favorite Cannon Beach captures.

Sorry I have not been posting much lately...the reason being, my PC crashed.  I had a difficult time retrieving my photos, folders, and email addresses.  And also learning how to use my new iMac has at times been difficult!

"Blue Horse Glass Macro" A rare event when creating glass!

  When creating my glass sculptures, it's nearly impossible to manipulate the glass when it's in a molten state.  So when this beautiful horses head showed up after the glass cooled, it was a real plus!

"The Navy's Blue Angel"

The nimble and speedy A-4 that wowed audiences with the Blue Angels for 13 seasons bucked the trend of "bigger is better." In 1952, Douglas designer Ed Heinemann, who had been the company's Chief Engineer since 1937, proposed that the Navy's newest attack plane be smaller, lighter, and faster than its contemporaries.

Starting in 1956, the little but powerful A-4 flew with Navy and Marine units, including flying combat missions during the Vietnam War. Heinemann's A-4 design surpassed all of the Navy's requirements for a light attack aircraft at about half the requested size and weight. A little package with a powerful punch created many advantages over larger Navy planes.
The A-4s were easy to manage on an aircraft carrier deck and their stubby modified delta wings didn't need to be folded for storage. Without the wing-folding mechanisms, the Skyhawk was even lighter and simpler to maintain -- aspects that allowed it to stay in operational service for over 35 years. The Skyhawk had one of the longest production runs of any American combat aircraft, with 2,960 built over 26 years.

The Museum's A-4 was built in 1966 and flew with the Navy in Southeast Asia. Active in Navy squadrons throughout the 1970s, the plane was transferred to the Blue Angels in 1980. This aircraft was often flown in the number 4 or "slot" position. When the Blues Angels fly in diamond formation, the slot flies directly behind the leader, surrounded on three sides by other aircraft.
