It's part of my dayjob to keep up with changes in Photoshop, especially new tools...So I am experimenting with generative AI to change backgrounds/attempt to clean up scratches, etc..I asked for a generated "19th century painted forest backdrop" and got this...

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

Happy International Women's Day. My great Grandfather George Lemp was (among many trades) a photographer in Auburn Ontario, Canada in the early 20th Century. The photos show my great grandmother, Barbara Yungblut-Lemp with her sister, and with her daughters, Dorothy (L) and Melinda (R).

In Summer, 2017 I revisited (and shot) a place that I had photographed and lived in the shadow of for years. (Michigan Central Station, which reopened last year after Ford Motor Co restored it). The darkroom was a few blocks away in the bathroom of some photo friends. Half plate ambrotype.

Just got an advanced copy of the Spring 2025 BW Magazine. Fellow Detroit expat Dean Brierly found my portfolio from my favorite photo class ever, Mark Towner's Large Format class at Wayne State University, 1982. It's really the earliest work that I would show to anyone. #largeformat #detroit
