I am a visual guy and have been taking pictures for over 60 years. This blog began as an attempt to learn digital image-making and share the experience with other novice shooters. It has become a place to share images of travels, photography quests and tips with the occasional rant for fun. Thank you for visiting.

Born and raised in New York City. Drove a taxi at night while getting a degree in Biology. Graduate education was in invertebrate zoology and environmental science. Bailed on a Ph.D. to work as an environmental consultant. Directed a biological survey of the lower Mississippi River which was sponsored by a big electric utility in New Orleans. Wound up employed by that utility, then another in Maryland for the next 28 years. I did environmental issue management and operations support for the industry. This required staying abreast of the scientific developments, tracking and participating in legislation and regulatory initiatives at the federal, state and local levels and ensuring compliance with final requirements. This background has cemented an interest in politics, science, current events, public affairs and the media. Retirement has given me time to travel, chase images and pay more attention to things that interest me and/or make me nuts.

Distinctly a 3-D effect here. Happenstance or are there tricks of the trade to enhance the effect?
Good question, Jack. I suspect the effect is a function of a couple of things, none of which were done intentionally. It was a bright, sunny day - usually NOT the best time for good outdoor shots but the scene is tight and sharp shadows are not a problem. Also, I'm the furthest thing from a color expert but there are only two colors in view and red/green have a way of contrasting with each other to sharpen the image. There was actually NO post-production applied to this shot...so happenstance would be the correct answer. Thanks for visiting.
