• WilcePhotos Sells Landscape!

  Wow, someone in California just bought a 36×12″ print of a photo I took while visiting my hometown, Claremont. Here is the announcement on Fine Art America! Given my goal, of re-branding myself and my work, emphasizing landscape photographs, this is very encouraging. Thank you so much for your encouragement! A gift for you now—…

• Landscape photography

  Mixed feelings about re-branding wilcephotos I am in the midst of branding or re-branding wilcephotos. Hence I have temporariliy de-activated my Shopify store. Let me tell you about it. The sequence of three doctored photos below says a lot about my feelings about re-branding wilcephotos, my business identity/ FB Business page with a new focus…

• Buffalo Park

  and McMillan Mesa Together, these are adjacent places of ever changing beauty throughout the day and seasons. As you can read here, Buffalo Park is also rich with history. Speaking of Buffalo Park… I just posted this image today (4/6/23) (see the thumbnail below). I also launched a new collection on my Fine Art America…

• Underexposed?

  or dark, rich, moody? I admit it— I love my “underexposed” images. I succumb to what one of my generous mentors calls “the religion of low light.” Why? The colors are so darned rich! The downside? They are “noisy”! (Noise is to digital images as “grainy” was to film images.) Here are two of my…

• Outdoors with a Sony camera

  Cloudy skies shot with Sony gear Between Wednesday and Friday (1/15 and 1/17/23) I did some “higher learning”– focusing high in the sky, and I felt like I was taking a college course, learning a bit about Sony mirrorless camera and lensl. Specifically, I rented an a7R IV camera with 100-400mm lens. I thoroughly enjoyed…

  Skip down to the bottom if you want to cut to the chase, but this story is fun… I once sang as “Jinx” in “Forever Plaid” with my barbershop quartet. Forever Plaid is a silly ’50s or ’60s throwback musical, but we four guys sang our hearts out! The photo here is of a very…

• Free: Three versions of bumblebee at white vetch flowers

  I am loving giving some of my photos away on Pexels.com, with the understanding that those who are inspired to do so will make a contribution to this extremely dedicated photographer, photo editor, videographer, etc. Here are three versions of a photograph of a tricolored (Hunt’s?) bumblebee hovering by white vetch flowers. (Vetches are in…

  Hi! Many of my photos are now downloadable, free, here— https://www.pexels.com/@jim-wilce-423947101 I love shooting, and I love sharing what I shoot. But does it seem strange to give away photos that I post for sale elsewhere? One “fstoppers” expert claims the free versions don’t compete with the commercial products. We’ll see. The key is you…

• Cinder Cones And Clouds: Original And “Final”

  If you liked the Ravens shots, before and after editing, you’ll love this pairing. On 10/15/22 around sunset on a cold, cloudy day, I drove from home (elevation 7000′) to the Arizona Snowbowl (elevation 9200). This photo was shot on “my return to ground” closer to 7000′. You will see that my edits involved brightening…
