Some of the images following this page will look quite different from most photography. They belong to an emerging series that I call "Toy Prism Images". Spend some time with them if you don't get it. The visual puzzle will reward you.

The image below, untitled, was created during a Museum of Photographic Arts (San Diego) Summer Series of Workshops at Grossmont College. The workshop was one being given by Daryl Curran (head of Cal State Fullerton's Photo Department) who is doing most of his imaging on top of the flat bed scanner and having large IRIS prints made from the digital files. This is my first attempt at the scanograph.
