Spy Car Remote Control Camera

Spy Car Remote Control Camera

Designed to look like a car remote control (it is quite convincing!) this is actually a hidden camera so you can capture people on video and take photographs. As it says on the product box 'covert surveillance has never been easier'.

Original Mini

You don't see many of the original Mini Cooper tooling around Orange County. I spied this one in the parking lot of the Barnes & Noble bookstore in Aliso Viejo on Day 343 of Project 365.

Love the plates.

DOUBLES SERIES, Double Dumpsters, Clyde Keller Photo

"DOUBLE DUMPSTERS"
From The Doubles Series

One fine summer evening in Portland, an old friend of mine, a brilliant graphic designer named Michael Casey, gave me a roll of "spy" film. We were in his studio just down the hall from mine. "See what you can do with it," he mused... "it's really kind of unusual, or so I'm told."

Taking the challenge I took my trusty Nikon out of my studio and on to the street. There I was immediately confronted with the most unusual scene, a visual pun which included a billboard and trucks. The billboard headline proclaimed, "Look! Double Coupons." Beneath the billboard were two identical delivery trucks parked side by side. So, I took the photograph of the sign and the trucks all doubled up amusing myself with this clever chance arrangement of pairs. Seldom had Madison Avenue found such a concurrency linked to an actuality!

Proceeding down the street I immediately ran into identical male twins with their identical twin vans. Holy smoke, I thought... this must be fate. I asked permission to photograph the twins in front of their vans and went on my merry way looking for more. By now I knew this was my destiny! All I could see were doubles, no matter where I turned. Snake Eyes!

Please enjoy this image of garbage dumpsters found in an ally way in this series of doubles.

This nocturnal image is looking toward the entrance to a Victorian House apartment complex in NW Portland. The color values are enhanced by the processing and manipulation from the original B&W Kodak Recording Film, lending a beautiful other worldly sensibility.
