| 21st October 2009 Robin | youch - From: Emptying the Yosemite Wilderness A little close for comfort! I met a mom bear and 2 cubs once on a trail at Mt. Rainier. I was scared at first---all those ferocious mom bear stories---but it became quickly apparent that she was far more interested in browsing than in us. Her 2 kids were curious as all get-out. Stood up on their hind legs and stared at us. But mom never cast a glance in our direction. I guess she knew the park boundaries! |
| 20th October 2009 cam2yogi | Clappling - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples For those unawares... Clappling is short for Clandestine Apple picking, or appling |
| 20th October 2009 Simone | I like clappling - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples It makes the fruit taste more sweet...plus the close-up image of the sunlight apples is gorgeous. |
| 16th October 2009 cam2yogi | Watering the Marks of Change - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples Hey Kevin, No worries. I mean it, thank you. I need that progressive feedback to swallow in whatever form it arrives. I think you e right... consistency, consistency... with a little more translucent marking. And like you said... theyre low rez, 72dpi. Can do much with that. Thanks again! In peace, cam |
| 16th October 2009 cam2yogi | D embrace - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples Hey my brother! Thanks for the flavors! I miss you and wished youd move north. peace n love, cam |
| 16th October 2009 Kevin | I owe you an apology - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples I was re-reading my prior comment to you, and I owe you an apology, the title was pretty rude and annoying. I can believe you responded as civil as you did (says a lot of good about you). Anyways, what I meant to say (minus the poor sarcasm) is that, for me, its very difficult to enjoy your pictures as the watermarks are really distracting. I see from others comments here and your previous blog entries that it doesn seem to bother most of the folks, so I may be in the small minority. For what its worth, Ive always thought that a low-contrast watermark in a *consistent* location (so its still noticeable on first view, but easier to mentally tune out once you get used to it), combined with a relatively low resolution image (obviously not a problem on this website) is a reasonable compromise. |
| 16th October 2009 Dennis Peyton | Delicious, Fresh, Juicy - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples Great Writing Content and Style. Feeling Apple Juice Everywhere. Thanks |
| 16th October 2009 Prakash | Great pics - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples Cam, I love the way you take the pictures. I believe you love to work more with black & white. The results are amazing. I have been following your pictures for some time now. Keep them coming. If you have the time do visit my blogs. I am quite passionate about photography and love to get advise from experts like you. Comments welcome. Cheers. Prakash |
| 16th October 2009 cam2yogi | Indubitably - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples Thanks Kevin, I've never received feedback about watermarks, and I realize now its a form of protection and marketing for me. I'll experiment with sizing and look forward to hearing more thoughts from you and others. Thanks! In Peace, cam |
| 16th October 2009 Kevin | Watermark much? - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples I'm sure your pics are good, but don't you think you're overdoing the watermark a bit? Not that I expect you to change your mind, but you might want to see a photography editor's perspective: http://www.wired.com/rawfile/2009/08/black-hole/ It's your right to protect your art, but you may end up protecting it to oblivion... |
| 16th October 2009 cam2yogi | Brotha, you rock! - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples Seriously, step all over these toes and keep dancin'! |
| 16th October 2009 cam2yogi | Thanks! - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples Hey Robin! Thank you for the encouragement. I can't wait to connect again on the isle and out in Hamar country of Ethiopia. I'm erupting with joy/ecstasy/potential at the possibilities and being able to provide some exquisite work for you and Lori at GTLI! See you soon. In Peace, cam |
| 16th October 2009 Robin | - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples Fabulous photos, Cam, and I love the story! |
| 16th October 2009 David Rabin | Well Done - From: Pressing an Isle of Apples Cam, NIcey done. I enjoyed ready your very vivid entry. Who is Simone. I used to ahve a girlfriend by that name. Every time I see it or hear it, I do a double take. I read the bottom regarding your upcoming trip. Great Stuff. If I am stepping on your toes, I apologize. One little suggestion in the last paragraph? Perhaps you can consider replacing "the next journey in East Africa" with "our upcoming Journey to East Africa". "Along with Lily Brewis, our mission begins in January 2010. We will work with and volunteer all of our time to work with several orphanages, NGOs, and grassroots communities."....Just a thought. You have a much better flair for this than I do. Cheers |

| 27th July 2009 Charles Anthony | Duncan Ball RIP - From: Peace Walk (Part VI): Dark Days at Sellafield It was a great shock to read of the demise of Duncan "Bounce" Ball. He was a “reet canny” lad and will be sadly missed. One of the few who had a word to say to me on my few returns home from the Middle East. May his work continue to it’s logical conclusion. A fellow Ex-Windscalian and a fellow Newcastle fan. |
| 25th July 2009 Stephen Paul | Nice work - From: Bushwhacking: In Search for Ms. Piggy (Part II) Another great entry- Life on the Moon, Bear Views and When Powers Collide are incredible. Looks like when Cameron goes into the wilderness the photos only get better for me! The story is great. Q. Why does Miss Piggy take a shower in honey? A. Because Kermit likes sweet ‘n’ sour pork! |

| 30th May 2009 Linda | Balian's cure - From: Balinese Hangovers & The Balian's Cure I am so happy to find your blog and to see the photos of my dear old friend Tjokorda Rai. I have not seen Tjok since 2001 which was my last visit to Bali. There are many powerful healers in Bali but Tjokorda is my favorite. I watched him do some amazing healings from curing minor bladder infections to healing someone of cancer. He is definately in a class by himself! Linda, or as Tjok calls me...Linda from Florida. He knows lots of Lindas. |

| 15th February 2009 Jack | Jack reporting in from Bali - From: Rescuing Personal Mysticism Across a Balinese Island Jack does not at all think he can live on "nothing". Lol. That statement, after all, contradicts itself from the get go. But he is most certainly open minded to the idea that there are other ways of producing matter and manipulating it into forms that we need to survive than by kinetic motion alone. (such as physical labor with one's own two hands.) He thinks this might be the case because of the anecdotal stories of mystics and Yogis who could produce matter by drawing on nothing but pranic energy, and then concentrating such into sub atomic particles. I.E. producing matter from the quantum field, by using nothing but mere thought. This metaphysical idea, which used to be considered nothing but "superstition" by level headed reductionists is finding fresh soil to germinate in - not in a new round of new age mystics, but in the minds of tenured, published theoretical physicists such as Fred Wolf, Irwin Laslow, and others. Laslow, for example, was nominated four times now for the Nobel Prize. He would agree with everything I said, and in fact is one of my inspirations. These people are the very scientists you would quote, when you say "science does not believe in that stuff" . Science does believe in such, increasingly, and so do I.
