I don’t have any new images to share, but I have been posting several newly scanned 4x5s on my Facebook Fan page.  I hope to have new work to share next week, after I return from a short vacation.

It is now possible to view my PDF ebooks on iphone, ipod touch or ipad. If you have one of these ebooks, or are thinking of buying one, use Good Reader app to view. Excellent resolution. If you try this out, esp on an iPad, let me know how it looks!   Good Reader app

William Neill ebooks

I still hope to offer my ebooks as apps, but we have not found an app designer or a PDF conversion that will work on iTunes.  If anyone has ideas or recommendations, let me know!

Lastly, my next BetterPhoto course, Inspiring Nature Photography Essentails, starts on Wednesday April 7th.  Spaces are still available!

Cheers,  Bill

Painted Bark

Painted bark eucalyptus, the Hana Coast, Island of Maui, Hawai

John and I have been working on more scans from my 4×5 film archive.  It has been rewarding to finally make use of these images, but also frustrating to see how many good images are languishing in my filing cabinets.  I have also been placing new images on my Facebook Fan page.  I look forward to your comments here or on the Fan Page!

Enjoy,  Bill

The bark of a Gumbo Limbo tree, Everglades National Park, Florida

Photographed in 1992 with a Wista 4×5 Field Camera

John and I continue our efforts to scan film in my files. Here is an old favorite, never scanned or printed before.  I must credit Eliot Porter for the inspiration as I first learned of this tree and its amazing bark from a photograph of his.

I am starting to develop an idea for a new portfolio that includes my more abstract details of nature.

The 4×5 film was scanned using my Epson Perfection V750 Pro.

Enjoy,   Bill
