Wildflowers near Gorman, Old Ridge Route This doesn't quite look like a photograph, and I certainly enjoy using Photoshop. But this is the straight photograph. Camera: Rolleiflex twin lens reflex, medium format film.

The View from Highway 41, Central California Highway 41 cuts through the Coast Range mountains of Central California. I made this photograph from the top of my mini-van, which gave me a bit of elevation over the highway. Camera: Rolleiflex MX-EVS

Carrizo Plain Carrizo Plain National Monument, California, USA Ok, it's not Square - but it was born of Square - from the Rolleiflex's square format. The idea behind such a format is that it can be cropped anyway the photographer desires. Camera: Rolleiflex T (watch for a similar picture in my book, Backroads of Southern California, due out in May, 2005.)

Roys Cafe and Motel, Amboy Camera: Rolleiflex T I like this picture. But I don't like it in color. Maybe the the sepia tone more closely matches the subject, since Roy's is a nearly defunct motel and cafe - and has been since the 1960s - in the Mojave desert of southeastern California. Limited edition prints are available - contact the photographer.

Amboy Salt Pool, Mojave Desert, California, USA This is a picture of an evaporation pond, located near the tiny and remote community of Amboy. When much of the water evaporates, the remaining salty sludge, used for a variety of odd commercial uses, is pumped into tanker cars on a train and shipped around the United States. Famed Route 66 is a few miles to the north. Camera: Rolleiflex T, with a small f/stop to hold depth of field.

Fern Spring, Yosemite, California, USA Yosemite's "smallest waterfall" - about three feet high, lies just off the road at the bottom of Yosemite Valley, and is missed by most visitors.

Dawn over Mono Lake I have seen many beautiful dawns over Mono Lake, in eastern California, USA, but none more so than this one.

Billy Goat in the Dog House Near Cambria, California, on the central coast of California - to me, this picture looks more like a painting than a photograph. I made it while on the 2001 photography workshop to the central coast.

Abandoned Airstream Abandoned Airstream trailer, at the back of the Bagdad Cafe (and location for the cult film of the same name), in Newberry Springs, deep in the American outback of the Mojave desert. Historic Route 66 runs right by the cafe, which is home to a cast of characters as unusual as those in the film.

Route 66 Motel, Barstow, California, USA This photograph was made on the 2002 photography workshop along a remote stretch of Route 66. We'll do it again, in 2004. Visit my Rollei webpage, http://home.attbi.com/~wymanburke/The_Rollei_Page.html as well as the Image Square webpage, http://cgi.linkclub.or.jp/~dmakos/imgsquare/ which features another gallery of Rolleiflex images by a variety of photographers.
Photographs in this gallery were created with the Rolleiflex film camera, a twin lens reflex, then scanned into my computer. The size of the negative/slide is 2.25 inches x 2.25 inches (6x6cm). It's akin to having a multi-megapixel digital camera, and it is four times larger than a 35mm negative or slide. Not all of the pictures in this gallery are square. The beauty of the square format and the twin lens reflex is that it allows for cropping of the photograph, without having to turn the camera in a horizontal or vertical orientation. I have a Rollei webpage at http://home.comcast.net/~wymanburke/The_Rollei_Page.html - Please drop by!
