Photo Sketch – One Year later…

January 20, 2018 by Ken

***The following post contains images which may be offensive to some people and is possibly NSFW.  If you are offended by graphic language or political messages please read another post or kindly leave this site.*** It’s hard to believe that it has been a year since my last post Photo Sketch – Sign(s) of the Times , but here we are again.  This year’s march was organized by https://seattlewomensmarch2018.com/ in conjunction with http://seattlewomxnmarchingforward.org/ .  Again, in the interest of this being a timely post, the following […]

Photo Sketch – Sign(s) of the Times

January 21, 2017 by Ken

***The following post contains images which may be offensive to some people and is possibly NSFW.  If you are offended by graphic language or political messages please read another post or kindly leave this site.*** It’s been quite some time since my last post, not for a lack of desire as much as a lack of time to photograph, process images and write.  But, when 130,000 of your neighbors decide they want to make history ( https://womxnsmarchseattle.wordpress.com/ ), it is hard […]

Thoughts On Holiday

May 25, 2015 by Ken

It has been several months since I have been able to post, and I was very excited with the prospect of putting up a small series of them after being on holiday in Hawaii with my beloved a few weeks ago.  It was our first time visiting the islands, and it was a long overdue trip that was all but prescribed by my medical team in their effort to grant my body a bit of greatly needed rest and recuperation these past few years.  We […]

Photo Sketch – And Without Further Ado

January 19, 2015 by Ken

Some photos for your viewing pleasure.  It has been months since I last posted, and I apologize for the radio silence.  Health issues have again, or still, occupied a large amount of my time, and what little free time that was available was used to head outside and take a few photographs.  I do not wish to dive into the details, but I would like to put up a few quick Photo Sketches for your viewing pleasure, and possibly give […]

Don’t Blink!

October 2, 2014 by Ken

First, my apology for not having posted in some time.  Work and chronic health issues have occupied the majority of my time the past few months, and that has left me with little free time to put together a post.  It seems that every time I try to get into any kind of rhythm on posting, life has a habit of creeping in and making things interesting.  Or, as we are fond of saying in our house, “Man plans, God laughs”. If […]

Photo Sketch – Red Sunshine

August 9, 2014 by Ken

This image is in honor of a friend who will be experiencing “Red Sunshine” for the first time next week.  I didn’t find it as devilish as they claim, and I hope that you don’t either. –Ken

Wheel of Fortune

August 8, 2014 by Ken

It was Wheel of Fortune week around these parts beginning this past Monday.  Two work colleagues started off the week with CT scans on Monday, and closed it out this morning with mine.  My colleagues are currently in treatment for breast and lung cancer, and my scan was a routine follow-up from my cancer treatment last year.  I am hoping that what follows sounds somewhat foreign to you, because if it does not, then I am fairly certain that you or somebody you know has […]

Two Jesters Named Mel

May 26, 2014 by Ken

Mel, a very close friend of one of my photographic mentors, was often fond of saying, “Come on!  Let’s go!  We’re burnin’ daylight!”  The first time I heard this expression, I thought it was funny, but totally in keeping with Mel, the busy New Yorker that he was.  And while I still find it to be a funny expression many years later, I’ve gained a healthy dose of respect for the wisdom, not just in the realm of photography, but also as it […]

Thoughts On Spring

April 6, 2014 by Ken

While many would often believe, especially this time of year, that winter seems to be the longest season in the Pacific Northwest, I truly believe that honor belongs to spring.  Snow Drops, an early harbinger of the season, often start to appear as early as mid-February.  And while we are just over two weeks into the season according to the calendar, it appears that the hellebore blooms in our yard have passed their peak, and are now giving up a bit of the limelight to daffodils […]

On Growing Old(er)

March 28, 2014 by Ken

In one of his rare, but famous interviews, the 2000 Year Old Man (aka Mel Brooks) wisely warned us that “we mock the thing we are to be”.  And in my travels through life, I have found this bit of wisdom to be truer that I sometimes care to admit.  I have also tried to take this bit of wisdom to heart as I have aged, even though I do not consider myself that old (barring the AARP invitation I received last year).  But today, however, […]

Another Wild Goose Chase

March 17, 2014 by Ken

It was an incredible feeling, running and sliding in snow so fresh and thick that you could not feel the concrete sidewalk beneath you.  The university was closed for semester break, but as the newly falling snow rapidly accumulated throughout the early evening, it only seemed appropriate to head out later in the dead of night to the center of campus and enjoy the snowfall.  First, we engaged in snowball fights with folks passing by.  Soon afterwards, we were running […]
