CK Interviews Photographer Rebecca Pendel
Over the years I have discovered a number of people that have inspired me to push myself to create better photographs and Rebecca Pendel is one of these people. Her photos would somehow summon my imagination to dark and mysterious place... as if by looking at the image would magically transported you to another time and dimension. Hopefully her words and images will move you as much as they have for me. Click here to read CK's Interview with Rebecca Pendel

CK Interviews Photographer Robert Holmgren
These days the Holga camera has become to be a household name in photography. And I think you'll find after reading and reviewing Robert Holmgren's Holga photos, that he has mastered this little plastic toy camera. Robert's strong sense of composition and lighting combined with the unique effects of the Holga are living proof that is less about the camera
and more about what you do with. It has been my pleasure to have been able to speak with Robert and to get to know his creative process better. Click here to read CK's Interview with Robert Holmgren.

The Goodin Lab Hires CK Design + Photography to Create New Web Page Designs
for The Scripps Research Institute

It is my pleasure to announce that CK Design + Photography will be creating a new series of web pages for The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) in La Jolla, California. The webpage designs will be for The Goodin Lab which is part of the Molecular Biology Department of TSRI. I will be working directly with David B. Goodin, Ph.D Associate Professor of Molecular Biology TSRI, to come up with a new look and feel for their lab website. Currently this lab has been doing some exciting new research using the Stanford Synchrotron to study enzymes.
The Goodin site will most likely launch by mid July of 2007

CK Photography Updates Holga Photography Photo Gallery
Slowly but surely I'm updating and completing all the photo galleries on chriskeeney.com. You can now see updated Holga photo gallery , which I plan to update as time progresses. I got into Holga toy camera photography in 1990's, when close friend gave me my first Holga. I started to experiment with different films and techniques. That was when I discovered and created the Holgashop image series.

SPAMera™ Travels To Pittburgh To Be Part Of The f295 Pinhole Symposium
I was asked this morning if I would be open to entering the SPAMera into a show called the
Picture This—A Camera Made from a Coconut! Presented at the Society for Contemporary Craft’s satellite gallery at One Mellon Center in downtown Pittsburgh (April 27—June 3, 2007), Picture This will feature hand-made cameras created from unusual materials such as, clay, wood, shipping pallets, a cigar box, a spam tin and a coconut among many other found objects. The exhibition is being featured in conjunction with The f295 Symposium on Lensless, Alternative and Adaptive Photographic Processes being held in Pittsburgh April 26-29, 2007.
Unfortunately I will be out of town on a photoshoot, so I will be unable to attend. My thanks goes out to the entire f295 staff & the SCC for including me in this event.

Some people think you can get by in life on your own, but it sure is easier when you have
some help from your friends. I was pleased to find out today that the pinhole diva herself was kind enough to announce the launch of my new site on the pinhole.com site and her site (slowlight.net). If you haven't seen Katie's pinhole photos, you should take some time to do
just that. She truly celebrates the art of pinhole photography with her images.
Thanks Katie! // you can see her on Flickr or on her own site.

CK Camera 07 Camera Give Away
What?, CK is giving away cameras now? Yep you heard it right, free cameras. I know, I know, nothing in life is Free Chris. Well, maybe so. This maybe the exception to that rule. I've decided that each year I will make something to give away Free. So, last weekend with son help from
my son (AKA Mr. Ruby Rocks), we made three new Lavazza Pinhole cameras.

The MexiCanon Canera
On Recent camping trip to Mexico, I found an old chili can on the ground. I thought at the time that this can appeared to be about the same size as a business card...Thanks to my friends
at Nelson's Photo for donating the Canon lens cap for the lid. After creating the camera and testing it out, I soon realized that it created interesting little photos. The exposure time for
each image is about 2.5 minutes in normal daylight situations.

Flickr thread

Flickr thread

The camera uses 2 X 3.5" photographic paper negatives (hand cut to size from 5 x 7" sheets of fiber base paper.
The camera has a pinhole made in a piece of soda tin that has been J.B Welded to the can.

Something like:

I guess I had add/change the root menu as I change and evolve...

Seriously Tasty Oatmeal Cookies
This is what I call NEWS! ~ Recently a good friend of ours had some oatmeal cookies sitting on a plate in her kitchen. Since I can't resist homemade cookies, and I knew Lisa made excellent cookies, so naturally I tried one. After tasting it,I had to have another! Naturally I HAD to have that recipe. My wife made a batch yesterday
that inspired me to share this recipe with the world... just like open source application sharing. To make something, then someone may coming along and make it better... no one owns it, it's it own entity.

Recipe
Lisa Starr


Beat:
3 tablespoons water
1 1/4 cup butter
1 egg
2 cups old fashioned oats (not quick)
2 1/3 cup whole wheat flour*
2 1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 tablespoon salt
1/2 tablespoon baking soda
1/2 tablespoon baking power

Bake for 16 Minutes until light brown around the edges.
*Dough should be firm but not crumbly.

Sharing
I'm in the beginning stages of setting up the site, so not much news to report now. This section of the site will be dedicated to news about my business and life. I intend to use the journal section of the site to share creative ideas,
either with graphics or photo processes.

I'm fascinated with the concept of "open source" coding. The thought of creating something that everyone can view and try and improve on is a great thing. I wish governments would implement thinking like that. This type of thinking can be seen on Flickr, where thousands of people are sharing photos/art and explaining how they got there.

[CK] Web site Launch
Making something I've wanted to happen... happen. By taking control and learning some HTML and Dreamweaver, I've been able to make this site come alive. I've owned the URL for 10+ years. I had an original site, which was removed from the internet years ago. I like how web sites can be constantly updated and refreshed.
