From my photofusion series. A grouping of street photographs merged together in photoshop, then brought finished image into Midjourney for a surrealism style effect. All images pwned and copywited. #streetphotography #photography #mixedmedia #midjourney #photofusion #surrealism #art #digitalartist

I have been documenting the Chicago streets for many years. No affiliations to any groups or politics. I photograph what interests me and always will. #streetphotography #photography #people #portraits #protest #signs #streetlife

I remember when social media was about keeping in touch with family, people we use to work with and old friends. Now its mostly about spreading propagandized politics and political hatred towards the other side. Anyone know of a new olatform that appreciates art without all the political crap #art

Yellowstone Lake after dark. 30 second exposure with my Nikon D810. It was so amazing at how dark it gets. Vickie turned the car headlights on for me to set up, then turned em off. Its kinda scary with all the wild animal noises. #photography #yellowstone #lake #nationalparks #night #nikon

Sequoia National Park Brought my 4x5 and some Efke infrared film on this hike through Sequoia. A bear was keeping its distance, but following me through the woods on my way back to get to my car. #photography #nature #film #infrared.#California #blackandwhite #largeformat #Sequoia #nationalparks

When I was in Florence Italy, I met this older fella and his dog. We had a coffee and a chat about life. #streetphotography #photography #blackandwhitephoto #streetportrait #dogs #Florence #italy

1 - (Bluesky)has been the most genuine. 2- (Instagram) They promote scammers and all most care about are paid fake followings. 3 - (Linkedin) The worst cancel culture from political hatred. 4 - (X) 100 percent of my comments were from scammers. 5 - (Facebook) Never liked, only use for Marketplace.

Recluse artist I met on the streets of Chicago. He carried a briefcase with a few pieces of canvas paper and a stick of chalk. After I took a few pics, we had coffee and talked while he drew my portrait. #streetphotography #photography #drawing #art #chicago #artist #recluse

Why do you hate AI? My thoughts. More than 80% of people that sell photography online use auto, no idea about camera settings, letting your camera do all the work. People called artists because they use a pencil, brush or mouse, but the work is not good. AI exposes all that and buries it. #art #ai

Chinatown Maintenance Man I use a tripod with some street shots. This one is set to zone focusing with a cable release. As a person of interest passes me, I smile at them to notice me, they turn around within 15 feet to look back. #streetphotography #chinatown #chicago #blackandwhite #photography

*Photofusion* After 48 years shooting in crazy places around the world, I decided to give AI a chance. Not to make my image, but to fuse it with my original photographs. A long exposure (light painting)after dark on Kwajalein Atoll. #photography #art #ai #photofusion #lightpainting #kawajalein
