Coda: Twiggy with leaf
Sunfriday, on Wednesday, March 10, 2010 at 3:27 PM:
Interesting - this highlights how viewing a photo in the context of a series is different than seeing in alone.
Yet more twiggy
nocklebeast, on Monday, March 8, 2010 at 7:48 AM:
that's really twiggy.
A little natural history interlude
The Kid and I were at the Woodland Park Zoo a few weeks ago with friends and we passed through the insect house. I love these stick insects so much that I thought I'd share them here, even though the photos ain't great art.
Rob, on Friday, March 5, 2010 at 6:49 AM:
My kid use to have stick-bugs and leaf-bugs as pets. They are surprisingly easy to care for and were hours of entertainment for us and our cats.

This is a powerful picture.
I have driven The Night Road. Each time a warning that the future should not be taken for granted.
Uncle Vinny, on Wednesday, March 3, 2010 at 7:20 PM:
Very Lynchian.
Silhouette 1
Uncle Vinny, on Sunday, February 28, 2010 at 1:10 PM:
Coooooool!
monkey queen, on Sunday, February 28, 2010 at 7:30 PM:
yes.
Savannah, on Monday, March 1, 2010 at 9:07 AM:
Oh yes, oh yes indeed.
Job site
Not sure what happened with yesterday's gap... but we should be on the normal publishing schedule now.
Enlightenment
Heather, on Tuesday, February 23, 2010 at 5:23 PM:
This is so pretty. I wish I was there right now. Alone and enjoying the peace and lights.
Gateway
Debra, on Thursday, March 4, 2010 at 6:48 AM:
There is something both eerie and beautiful about this at the same time. Maybe it is the face I that I see behind the fence? Or the bright light with the rust...hmmm...
Faraway, so close
(yes, that's all in-camera, no magickal photoshopping)
Heather, on Tuesday, February 23, 2010 at 5:24 PM:
Nicely done!
monkey queen, on Sunday, February 28, 2010 at 7:32 PM:
so many of my favorite things all at once!
Dancing, not loitering
Heather, on Tuesday, February 23, 2010 at 5:25 PM:
Makes you want to invite a bunch of people to stand outside around the door dancing randomly to different beats on their iPods.
The Visitor
Claude, on Monday, February 15, 2010 at 11:12 AM:
David,
Wow! The power of titles in your work is astounding. This picture is nothing without the title.
I must remember that.
Thank you.
Secrets
Claude, on Monday, February 15, 2010 at 11:10 AM:
David,
I wondered to myself : why the title "Secrets"? And then I noticed that one of the windows, the centre one, is plastered. Wow. The person must have one big secret to hide.
Did you notice that plastered window?
Thistles down

Another one from your commissioned ad series?
Bram's Garden Shop for the Undead.
"Do garden shops bring the painful reminder that you will never again feel the sweet breath of life? We at Bram's understand. Choose from dying plants, or ones already dead.
Visit the desiccation section, and our award-winning blackhouse, which features moldering decay. We've also recieved a shipment of deceased gnomes. And if your garden is plagued with beautiful flowers or thriving fruit trees, check out our wide selection of herbicides and chainsaws.
We're just 2 miles past Hope Road. Look for the sign with the Raven.
What's he building in there?
Damon, on Tuesday, February 9, 2010 at 9:04 AM:
...I heard he
Has an ex-wife in some place
Called Mayors Income, Tennessee
And he used to have a
consulting business in Indonesia...
Downcast

So sad.
Fogwalk 4
Uncle Vinny, on Sunday, January 24, 2010 at 2:35 PM:
Favorite!
Sunfriday, on Monday, January 25, 2010 at 8:22 AM:
Beautiful! The more I look at it, the more connections and contrasts come out. Like the the arch of light spots (rocks?) in the foreground.
heather, on Monday, January 25, 2010 at 11:16 PM:
I love this one
David Adam Edelstein, on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 at 6:59 AM:
I feel as though I would be remiss if I didn't point out that the details and subtle tonalities of this popular photo are much easier to appreciate in a large and reasonably priced print ;-)
Uncle Vinny, on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 at 11:20 AM:
Hahahaha, well one wouldn't want one to be remiss!
Sunfriday, on Tuesday, January 26, 2010 at 2:43 PM:
Odd. I was actually thinking that exact thing. Need to have more walls first though.
Fogwalk 1
When we were in Oregon over Christmas, I was lucky enough to get a whole afternoon of glorious fog in Spring Valley.
I stalked around in the mist and the mud for a couple of hours and had myself a fine old time.

Wonderful photo. The wood shows in its own right, adding a sense of time: the tree, the whale, the act of carving. It also gets across that these creatures are not adorable pets. They eat on seals for breakfast.

Pausing
GeoGeek, on Tuesday, January 12, 2010 at 8:40 AM:
I LOVE this shot! Where did you take it?
David Adam Edelstein, on Tuesday, January 12, 2010 at 10:17 AM:
At the Saint James Cathedral in Seattle.
Not too long after I took this picture of the ceiling.
Sarah, on Tuesday, January 12, 2010 at 5:15 PM:
This is breathtaking. So peaceful.
Kid stories
If your kid throws their magazine in the tub, how do you get all the pages to dry? Figure out some way to insure airflow:
Arguments on the nature of reality:
The kid: "Hey, this rag is a sock!"
Me: "This rag is a piece of cloth that was once shaped like a sock."
The kid: "No, it's a sock!"
Me: "It was shaped like a sock once. Now it's shaped like a rag."
The kid: "Daddy. It. Is. A. Sock." (eye roll)
Later...
The kid: "Where's the icecube in my soup?"
Miz Becky: "It's gone!"
Me: "The ice cube is still there, it's just shaped differently."
The kid: (eye roll)

The texture is gorgeous, looks the leaves are as soft as velvet.
Suspended

There is this thing you do with space that is so amazingly sculptural.
