http://smwhittemore.smugmug.com/ <i><font color="#FAF8CC">I’ve been scraping little shavings off my ration of light<br>and I formed it into a ball and each time I pack a bit more onto it.<br>I make a bowl of my hands and I scoop it from its secret cache under a loose board in the floor<br>and I blow across it and send it to you against those moments<br>when the darkness blows under your door.<br><br>Isn’t that what friends are for?<br><br>…Bruce Cockburn</font></i><br> ___________________________________________________________________________________________ <br> <div align="middle"> <br> A tradition among photographers is to wish each other good light. These light shavings represent the coincidence of good light and my occasional ability to take advantage of it. I hope you enjoy them.<br><br>I am a long-time Olympus OM System user specializing in photomicrography and nature photography. In my film days, I shot almost exclusively slide film. I delayed my conversion to digital photography until I could get a digital SLR that was compatible with the OM system. Olympus's FourThirds system brought that compatibility. Now I shoot exclusively digital and I love the freedom and control it gives me. In addition to photography, I have a passion for mineral collecting and I've enjoyed combining these two pursuits over the years. <br><br> I hope you enjoy my light shavings. var ssConfig = { AlbumID: '1305240', newWindow: 'false', transparent: 'true', splash: 'http://www.smugmug.com/img/ria/ShizamSlides/smugmug_black.png', showLogo: 'false', clickUrl: 'http://smwhittemore.smugmug.com/gallery/1305240_x3YPX', showThumbs: 'false', showButtons: 'false', crossFadeSpeed: '350' }; SM.flash.insertSlideshow(300, 300, ssConfig, 'transparent'); </div> http://www.smugmug.com/img/feed-icon.png Sat, 18 Mar 2006 12:36:09 -0800 Thu, 03 Dec 2009 19:15:30 -0800 http://www.smugmug.com/ Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
