Untitled 28 Jan 2011 | 02:09 am
This is my last post from this blog location. Future posts will be from the new location at http://www.bpsphoto.com/blog/ . I'm working on bringing my family of sites into one space, with one look. Th...
Woodcut Detail #48, Studio, Kabul, Afghanistan 27 Jan 2011 | 02:48 am
Somebody spent hours, days maybe, carving this thing by hand. I envisioned this shot as a river, but I don't feel it quite worked out as I wanted. It's nice, but not exactly what I thought I saw. Keep...
Woodcut Detail, Studio, Kabul, Afghanistan 26 Jan 2011 | 02:39 am
When you can't get out and shoot due to illness and security restrictions, you look for stuff sitting around the house. On our recent trip to India, my wife bought a couple of woodcut printing blocks....
Fallen Tree, Budapest, Hungary 23 Jan 2011 | 02:26 am
The roots had taken such hold of the fence that when the tree went down, so did the fence. You don't really think much about trees until they do something like this.
Opera House, Budapest, Hungary 21 Jan 2011 | 02:18 am

If you're into religious history, the Blue Mosque in Mazar-e-Sharif is one of a few reputed burial sites for Ali, Mohammed's cousin and son-in-law (there's a lot of that). If the history's important t...
Pedestrian, Dast-e-Shor, Afghanistan 17 Jan 2011 | 02:41 am
About an hour from Mazar-e-Sharif on a desolate, dusty dirt road lies the village of Dast-e-Shor home to refugees repatriated from Iran. The scenery reminded me of southern Saskatchewan, without the b...
Panjshir River, Afghanistan 16 Jan 2011 | 02:29 am
It was a beautiful day in the Panjshir Valley. I thought I'd work with a duotone treatment. I did the lighter areas in a yellow-brown, sepia-ish color and the shadows in a blue. I think the brown conv...
Gullies, Hindu Kush, Afghanistan 15 Jan 2011 | 02:27 am
On a flight to the Panjshir Valley, we passed over the southern edge of the Hindu Kush. That rectangle on the left is someone's homestead or field, rather dramatically disrupted by the formation of a ...
