This is from the glass front door of a woodstove.
It got hot to just the right temperature & other mysterious conditions
& the soot on the inside of the stove made these patterns in the glass.
It was an uncommon occurance & i had to get the camera too hot
in order to get the best picture with it. Didn’t feel good about that.
I have a different camera now…
patterns in glass - a door on a wood stove
A Variation…
patterns in hot glass
But, ya know? If this came out at about 4 feet tall & had a lot of shine, that’d be ok with me.
3 steps away from that

Sunny day, nice chair, no tweaks
I lived with an old Gibson j-50 for 30 years once. This is not that. Good, though…as Utah Phillips used to say…
I like these with lots of light & no tweaks. Tasty.
Eastman Uptown: it was a sunny day
just one more, with a little tweak…
once more: with feeling

A lamp one night across the room with the desk as tripod.
I’m just an opportunist, don’t get too far from the house unless i do.
from my desk i saw the chocolate lamp - one of three
brighter with more feathers

It was raining & i was in the garage with the door cracked at the bottom for the cats & from the back of the garage the reflections off the puddle splash trying to get under the door caught my eye. Lotsa things do. There wasn’t enough light to get good, so i had to tweak them pretty hard to make them make sense. & then just barely.
I’ll get another lens someday soon & let you know.
Hard tweak just to see if there's any "there" there. (Gertrude Stein)
and…the last of these…until the next storm…
A hard tweak to rain puddle in low light
- “There is no there there” appears in Gertrude Stein’s Book _Everybody’s Autobiography_. When Stein returned to California on her lecture tour to the United States in the 1930s, she wanted to visit her childhood home in Oakland, CA. She records that she could not find the house. Hence, “there is no there there.” –Sonja Streuber
