Product Details
Our luxuriously soft blankets are available in two different sizes and feature incredible artwork on the top surface. The bottom surface is white. Our 100% polyester blankets are available in two different styles: plush fleece and sherpa fleece. Plush fleece blankets are soft and fluffy on both sides, whereas sherpa blankets are smooth like a soft sweater on the artwork side (i.e. shorter threads) which provides for a sharper image. Looking for a recommendation? Go with a 60" x 80" plush fleece blanket. It's soft and luxurious on both sides... the artwork looks incredible... and the size is just right for everyone.

We could see the Mexican border from this spot in southern Arizona. We had scouted for about 4 hours before deciding on this spot to shoot. I set up my camera (Nikon N90s, my last shoot totally with film, on a Bogen tripod) as Gary set his up from a different angle. We travel and shoot together often and when he shoots I assist him, likewise when I shoot. We shot a couple of rolls each that night starting just after dark. This shot started about 1 hour after sunset, almost totally dark but with a little glow on the horizon. The plan is that we use handheld flashes to create our shape and depth. I'm the foreground and large cactus guy and Gary is already way back by the smaller cactus area in the ready position. I opened the shutter and gave a shout to Gary to start, then I managed to trip over my camera bag, I quickly recovered to exposed my assigned areas within my best guess of an exposure time. I was pleased with several shots that night but this was my favorite.
Over the years Mike has dabbled in painting, sculpting & wood working as well as photography. Mike's turning point in his artistic abilities came when he learned how to use the dreaded computer in the mid 80s, then he could combine his love for art with his photographs. Mike's work has won numerous awards as well as being shown all over the country in galleries and museums. Now after 25 years of Commercial Photography in the High Point area, Mike now creates art full time, living just outside of Dunn North Carolina. "Welcome to the world as I see it. To smile, be happy and laugh as much as possible, that's what life should be about. I hope this shows through my work and makes you feel the same way." Mike

Thanks for your comments and support Gary!

Great shot Mike. I wonder if folks who have never been out in the desert know how hard it is to control the extremes in contrast and get nice clean smooth tonality?
