Crazy Sky on the Anselmo
Moving Clouds + Full (or almost) Moon = Crazy Skies. I’m not sure if I like the desaturated version or the colorful version better….I’m leaning towards less color. What’s your opinion?

Olive and Copper
120 North Main has transformed from a hay-filled hot pink and puke purple arcade, into the Hillstead Hall (or Uptown Butte Convention Center), name pending. It’s in the final stages of remodel, and will be ready for the weekend to house the Festival of Trees during the Christmas Stroll. It’s a pretty large space, and …
Pulley Retake
So yes, again, this is another reshoot. BUT this was taken with about 5 horizontal shots. So this photo could be printed pretty huge. And it’s not cropped. Hopefully I’m not boring people with re-shoots. I don’t feel very creative when I’m basically copying myself. But it’s for a project.
Granite Street Panorama
This is Granite street. As far as I know, the two buildings at left are abandoned. The windows are boarded up and there is never anything really going on there. The Napton, which you can see a small amount on the right, has people living in some of the rooms.
Bell Diamond Mine Sunset
This is the Bell Diamond Mine at Sunset. The clouds and color you are actually seeing are basically South, but for some reason the sunset colors reflect in that direction, and some to the East as well. The first photo is three photos combines so I can blow the photo up larger. The second photo …
Look Up
Here’s my challenge to you: Look up. It’s that simple. Look up. When you’re walking around uptown, look up at the architecture and take notice of how rich those old buildings are with detail. There is a reason the Vernacular Architecture Forum was in Butte last summer. And, it was kind of a big deal. …
Ode to Yellow Chair…and Aqua Porch.
This photograph is of a funky, old, torn, worn yellow chair on an aqua/green porch. For some reason I really like old funky chairs. I think I should start collecting those old unwanted chairs, and use them in my photographs. Senior portraits, family portraits, engagement sessions, etc, could all use some creative old chairs. And …
Propeller
This strange propeller Is on the corner of S Washington Street and Aluminum Street. It’s fenced in, which I guess makes it so it’s not a hazard to children and other people. But it made it a bit hard to photograph. The fence is pretty high, so I was hanging over the Washington Street side …
Client Photos
I have a studio commercial assignment to photograph beaded curtains. Is it directly related to Butte? Not necessarily. But I thought I’d share these photos as well as the technical information for anyone who might be interested on the How-To. I really wanted the beads to “pop” against the black background, so I knew I …
Blue and Orange
Silver Bow Property Management . I thought the colors were interesting
