Sharing From the Vault…

One of several tasks left on my to-do list is to sort through the vast library of images taken over the last thirty years or so. After my diagnosis Suzanna selected one of her favourite fine art images and I had it printed on canvas, and there are a few of my favourite framed prints saved for her as well.

As for the rest of the photos, I can’t imagine that the fine art film and digital negatives will be of use to anyone after I’m gone. I figure I may as well share some of them while I’m here.

I’d like to offer up the occasional image for free download, sized (I hope appropriately) as wallpaper for a computer, tablet or phone.  I’ll tweak the process as needed as I go along.

If you’ve visited my website at http://www.theintrepidlens.com , you might have seen some of the images there – but being a flash site they can’t be copied. I’d be happy to entertain requests for anything that catches your eye there, with the exception of portraits. None are there right now, but I might get around to putting a few back up. One of the other tasks on my list is to freshen up the website now and again, my visitor counter tells me that quite a few people still visit the site even though my business has been shut for almost two years now. I’m happy to see that the photos are being enjoyed!

The link I’m providing is via DropBox, I don’t believe that you need to do anything except click on the link and save the image to your computer or device if you’d like to have it. This is anonymous, I don’t get any info about who has downloaded it, or how many times.  If you do (or attempt to) download the image, I’d appreciate it if you could let me know just for this first offering if it worked. More importantly if it didn’t work (this can be done anonymously via the comment section on this post, or by email to sessa1@live.ca ).  And feel free to share, all I ask is that if an image is posted on line that credit be given to the photographer. That would be me.

The image is watermarked (although I still haven’t found my Intrepid Lens logo file, it’s somewhere in a box in this apartment on a drive!) I respectfully ask that it not be cropped out if you’re sharing the image.

Tonight’s image is one taken about ten years ago in the Beaches area of Toronto, on black and white film. I was with a photographer friend, although it was early afternoon an exceptionally heavy fog was still laying low on the ground. As dense as pea soup, we had almost given up on shooting for the day when the sun slowly started to burn through.

Here’s the link for the image shown in this post: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xfomsdtyyck1oip/Beach_wallpaper.jpg
