Okay, #BlueSkyArtShow, I want your opinions, raw and unvarnished. I've been playing with an edit look I'm calling woodcut, based on the #sharp masks in photo editor software. What do you think? Fun? Too obvious? "Cool-but-have-you-tried..."? #photography #critique #fashion #sailing #Baltimore

These were razor #sharp when new. Today this same scene is rusty but no less treacherous. #EastCoastKin #Baltimore #security #urban #defense #BlueSkyArtShow

Seems my teeth weren’t #sharp enough. #bones #animals #skull #BlueSkyArtShow #photography

Monster mouth looking #sharp in #Slovakia cave. It’s gotta be fun to design the lighting for these spaces. #BlueSkyArtShow

If I keep finding my way into these kinds of evenings, I might learn how to dance AND how to take some okay photos. #music #night #photography #Baltimore #lasers

My alter ego does a few art things too now and then. #Baltimore #robots #space

I wasn’t #busy in Wilmington, my appointment got cancelled. So I played with long exposure, #minimalism, and #infrared. #BlueSkyArtShow #EastCoastKin #photography #Delaware

What would you change? This bodega owner in New Castle saw my camera and asked me my rates. I'm not confident enough in my #portrait #photoghraphy to charge yet, so I'm doing these for him for free/for practice. Please, #critique the editing! I want to learn, and to give Akrem a nice photo to use.

Mushrooms in the summer and the first time I got to spend time with a long lens, #growth all around. Wye Island, MD. I wonder, can #mycology folks just ID flowering bodies from a shot like this? #BlueSkyArtShow #EastCoastKin #photography #nature #fungi 🧵1/4

On a trip to #Paris, I brought a shift lens to practice with it on the #tall famous buildings. Several came out good, but what would you tweak, #architecture people? #BlueSkyArtShow #photography #travel

Everything looks #tall lying on the ground, but this sculpture does in fact reach two stories into the air. #BlueSkyArtShow #Baltimore #art #sky

The flagship of Eisenhower's Atoms for Peace program was the NS Savannah, a nuclear-powered merchant #ship. It carried passengers and cargo to demonstrate civilian use of #nuclear. The $$ didn't pencil out then, but the current price of oil makes it looks pretty good. #maritime #boat #photography 🧵

I don't want #AI to cull my photos for me, but I'd be open to a service that outsourced it to photographers in foreign lands, like the hospital already does with my X-rays. #photography

Quiet* moments from two recent #Baltimore evenings. (the Ty Segall show at Union Craft and an evening walk from the Inner Harbor). *figuratively. In terms of actual sound, this was a rock concert #photography #music #concert #alley #urban #night

Help me decide? I'm going to use one of these, printed big, in a café exhibit titled "In this strange light." It'll be with #infrared shots, aurora borealis, and other dark and quirky lighting conditions. Which do you like more? #advice #critique #photography #red #laser #EastCoastKin

The proper name is the Hôtel de Ville, but it’s reasonable to anglicize that to #Paris City Hall. I’m trying to learn to make good use of this 820nm #infrared filter. The results so far are a bit #soft for my tastes, but the old-timey effect is fun. #BlueSkyArtShow #photography

A jazz band busks on a bridge in #Paris. The #infrared makes Caucasian skin more #soft because of the greater subsurface scattering of NIR. I want to probe the effect on darker skin tones, but am shy about asking people for photos (hence the telephoto, of people performing, here). #BlueSkyArtShow

Damn I love this town #Baltimore #snark

The shadows of clouds on a city look more extreme in #infrared. This is the view from the Arch de Triumph toward Sacré-Cœur, in #Paris. #BlueSkyArtShow #ShadowPlay #photography #surreal #travel #France

Paris, the city of #infrared light. Honestly, I was so excited to see the city in IR that I largely forgot to take regular #tourism photos. #surrealism #photography #travel #Paris

One is an #odd number, right? It’s an odd patio outside office buildings and a mall near #Paris, that’s for sure. Le Pouce, by César Baldaccini. #art #photography #BlueSkyArtShow

This is an early draft of how I'm going to develop these #infrared photos taken through an airplane window on a sunny day. But gotta say, I'm loving it so far. #photography #travel #aerial And to think I was on the #edge of taking a nap on this flight instead... #BlueSkyArtShow

@goldenglimmera.bsky.social thanks for following along! I saw on your profile that you're into tech tech/science. On my other account @craigofwaffles.bsky.social , I'm a chemistry journalist.

You'd hate to catch the #edge on this razor wire. I can't decide if the dulling of rust would make it worse or better. #BlueSkyArtShow #urban #security #photography #EastCoastKin Seen above a roofing company's warehouse wall in #Baltimore.

The shadow of a mic stand makes an #edge in the plane of #laser light. Look carefully to enjoy the finely rhythmic #texture of the laser field. #BlueSkyArtShow #photography #music #Baltimore

Trying a #new #infrared approach, doing it on my phone. There’s a significant hot spot in the middle, which puts constraints on the composition. And it’s going to require Darkroom or another editor with more flexible white balance tool. But there’s potential here. #BlueSkyArtShow #photography

In my work persona, I’m a chemistry journalist. They recently greenlit a feature article about #film #photography, and it’s out today! I took all the photos. Coincidentally, I also sold my first commissioned art photo today. #bigDay #worldsCollide #art #analog #business #chemistry

San Antonio is a #colorful town, even in normal human vision (as for the first two). #infrared #photography #SanAntonio #Texas #travel

What went on inside this little building, all by itself on a hillside in Cromwell Valley Park (north of #Baltimore)? The #openings are nominally boarded up now, but did they ever merit glass? Come to think of it, what's in there now? #BlueSkyArtShow #blackAndWhite #photography #infrared #history

When the sun is bright and high in the sky, it's like a whole other world inside the barn. #openings #BlueSkyArtShow #horses #country #photography #pastoral

Glorian, Terrain, and Soul Meets Body at the 8x10 in #Baltimore this weekend. #music #photography #night #colorful I think I like concert photography because the stage lights make the colors fake for everyone, giving me less of a handicap. Also because I like live music!

The #contrails in the sky make a #sail in the #background of this #infrared photo of the East Indiaman #Amsterdam, a replica historical sailing ship. #BlueSkyArtShow
