This is the third year that I have put together a calendar featuring my photographs. The previous two years featured photographs from Diana and Holga toy cameras. For 2009 I decided to gather together twelve of my favorites from the ongoing series Artifacts of an Uncertain Origin. These photographs are not digital collages, but are full frame views from a wooden pinhole camera with no viewfinder.
I have been working on this series since August of 2006 and as I write this I have 24 images in the group with ideas for several more. I cannot say when I will be finished, as the creative muse still speaks to me through this channel. And when the creative muse is ringing your doorbell, it's always a good idea to keep inviting her in!
You can find more information, including an ordering link and a preview gallery of all twelve calendar images by following this link.
