Soma-Sema Photography- Window of Opportunity July 29, 2009This photograph is of my oldest friend with whom I have since had to part ways. I have known him since I was two and half, or three years old, and he is essentially a third brother to me. In all the nearly 20 years we have known each other, this is the only photograph [...] […]danbaxter
- King Mountain July 29, 2009This is a photograph of another friend that I would not say has had a usual life, and so her story is not easily estimable; nevertheless, the elements in this photograph capture some of the places she’s been, but more of where she is now, and of where she is travelling in the future. Like [...] […]danbaxter
- Day Lilly VII July 28, 2009This is a photograph of a Lilly, one of seven such photographs. Each one of these was taken with my Nikon FM2 using Kodakrome colour positive slide film (100 ISO) and my Sigma 70-300mm apochromatic macro zoom lens. I had to use a tripod for this shot because both flowers were in the shade of [...] […]danbaxter
- Arias July 28, 2009Unfortunately, none of the portraiture I’ll be posting on this site will be for sale. I am posting them so that I can discuss how to do well made portraits that capture a person’s personality and history in a frame. Arias is the angel of sweet smelling herbs (though, also considered a demon in some sects [...] […]danbaxter

- The Trespass July 28, 2009This shot was taken with a Cokin filter system red filter on a 50mm Nikon e-series lens and 400 ISO print film with my FM2. I used a shutter speed of 1/125 bracketed through to 1/1000 at f/8-f/16. I had to sacrifice some over-exposure in the sky to bring up the right level of contrast [...] […]danbaxter
- The Seduction July 28, 2009This photograph was taken with the same set-up as The Trespass: my 50mm 1.8 Nikkor, my cokin filter system and my red filter. I kept the aperture small (f/22), my shutter high, and underexposed by a stop. For a metaphysical interpretation of this in a series of Stonehenge photographs, I invite you to take The Journey [...] […]danbaxter
- The Cleansing July 28, 2009I took this shot using a circular polarizer, a cheaper variety of Kodak 400 ISO print film at a shutter speed bracketed between 1/500 and 1/2000 of a second, a 28mm lens and my usual Nikon FM2. The polarizer was angled for maximum effect (90 degrees from the angle of the sun’s light, giving a [...] […]danbaxter
- Exodus July 28, 2009This is the last installment in the Journey of the Stones series, for which I will post a link soon. Exodus shows us a guiding light leading the ever-silhouetted procession to finally pass out of the place of ancient mysticism and walk renewed in the living, visceral world (note: the procession enters The Trespass to [...] […]danbaxter
- One Winter’s Dawn July 28, 2009In the frozen calm of a mid-winter dawn, after mounting my camera on the tripod and getting all my gear ready, I walk briskly across my driveway and into the southwest corner of the yard. I set up, compose the shot with the available space provided by my 28mm Nikon lens, and calculate my exposure. [...] […]danbaxter
