Here's something new I haven't tried since moving to the one-long-entry-each-day format: a second entry for today!
I actually planned my Photo Friday submission this week (the assignment was 'skin'). My photograph didn't turn out as I had planned, but it is interesting.
This photograph is a double exposure. Typically with a double exposure, I underexpose each exposure by one full stop so that the total amount of light that reaches the negative is equivalent to a normal image.
In this case, the first exposure — a close-view of José, the shop foreman — is one-half stop underexposed. The second exposure is the bark of an oak tree, one full stop underexposed. I intended the bark to be more subtle; I didn't compensate enough.
I may try this again underexposing the bark by two or even three stops.

2005 — In the Year 2025 In which I predict how the world will change in the next twenty years. Notably, I think human implants will become widespread.
2004 — Thinner (With Pictures) I'm now three months into my weight loss program. Some days I still feel fat; other days I feel skinny. Today I feel skinny.
2001 — Neurotic Sometimes I think I'm a genius. Sometimes I think I'm a moron. What would truly make me happy?
Hi! I'm home after 12 wonderful days in Colorado,
Rocky Mt N.P. and the Grand Tetons. The wonders of nature are truely awesome, wheather scenic beauty or wildlife. Our field of vision was treated to Mountain Sheep, Moose, Elk by the score, Deer, Buffalo, a lone wolf making its way across the ice on a frozen river, and last but not least, Wedensday evening we were waiting for the sun to go down a bit so we could get a good reflection of the Tetons in a beaver pond. Alas Mr. and Mrs. beaver and all those of working age decided it was time to go to work, making ripples across the pond, thus making the reflections look as though the Tetons had suffered a 8.5 earthquake. None the less the beaver captured our interest and we enjoyed watching someone else work for change, although they seemed content to just swim around the pond and ruin our once in a life time photos. I counted at least 7 of them.
I guess this don't comment on your web page J.D. but Tammy kept me posted about your recent entries
I love hearing about you, your wife and Nick, Tony, Jeff and all those I am aquainted with. I feel bad that you all are having to work so hard that you have no time for extras. :o) Really I am quite pleased with my brother that he was able to leave you all a sucessful business. I really miss him but I guess I need not write about the attachments of my heart strings. I of course find you photo adventures very interesting. What is also interesting is how you are finding the same photo instructors as I did. In the late 80's
I took a class on Photojournalism from David Falconer at C.C.C. Keep up the good work.
