I often get asked what I use for my Solar and Lunar photography. This is it… Fujifilm X-T3 camera body, 2x extender, 100-400mm lens. I use a Fujifilm cable release although sometimes I use the Fujifilm app on my iPhone. The Solar filter is from Thousand Oaks Optical. It is on a tall Induro tripod. But what really made things easier is this Benro geared head. The pool is optional. Thanks!

Dice at the Galen
At the opening reception for the Artists Council show “Fun+Games” at the Artists Center at the Galen, my photograph “Dice.” This piece is created by infusing dyes into a specially coated 40″x30″ aluminum panel, resulting in a photograph of almost magical luminescence. I’m deeply appreciative of the opportunity to exhibit in the museum-quality setting of the Galen in Palm Desert, California, where the show will be on display through June 30th, 2024. Thanks!

75 of Shauna On Red Leather

A red leather chaise lounge invites a break during the day. I selected 75 of one series from a day of shooting. I think the series is more intriguing than just one. On my website at https://www.secondfocus.com/index/G0000R1I.kt6G8J8
100 of Aristodeme And Her Shadow

100 of Aristodeme And Her Shadow. A new gallery on my website. https://tinyurl.com/Aristodeme100 A day’s shooting of 564 photographs. There were a few themes created around a prop or wardrobe item. This is my selection of 100 of the 128 in this series. Here her shadow is a second model in the photographs and the movement and play is more than could be shown in just one. Please visit the gallery and let me know what you think. Of course on my website it is not censored Thank You! https://tinyurl.com/Aristodeme100
Fun+Games
Join us for the opening arts reception of “Fun+Games” this Thursday, June 13th, from 4-6 pm at the Artists Center at the Galen in Palm Desert, California. You will see my photograph featuring 300 of the most common item of fun and games from throughout history and around the world. Each item glows red, in a sea of black, achieved by infusing dyes directly into specially coated aluminum. The result is a magical luminescence, presented in a huge 30×40 inch format. There will be much “Fun+Games” to see. Thanks!
Bodybuilding Webcasts
How many of you watch the Olympia and Arnold bodybuilding competitions online? How about any other bodybuilding shows around the country or the world? Well that all started out in the late 2000’s because of me and this video camera, John Balik’s Iron Man Magazine and FitExpo and Bodybuilding.com. That is where it all began. And not the Bodybuilding.com of today. The original Bodybuilding.com created by Ryan, Jeremy and Russ DeLuca who were the visionaries who made so much possible in the world of bodybuilding and fitness.
