Take a look at some of my varied projects--mostly using alternative
techniques:  gum prints, cyanotypes, pinhole and other unconventional
approaches to photography--at http://www.michael-mccarthy.com

Thanks!

We saw this sh.t before, and we didn't like it the first time either, moron!

Take it easy, Scarp.

I quite like it.

Yeah, it isn't great works of art like a "boy pouring syrup on
pancakes", like the great Michael Scarpitiful shoots.
Didn't your mother ever teach you any manners?  Like if you don't have
anything nice to say, don't say anything?
You are the truely pitiful one, Scarcrappi.  Now go away.

As for your page, interesting.  I might not like it all but at least
you are doing creative things, unlike Mr. Bozo here.

Yeah, right, like 'Blurry Face No. 1', 'Blurry Face No. 2', and 'Blurry Face No. 3'.

My stuff from my teens is better than this idiotic drivel.

So, why do you keep criticizing my stuff from 35 years ago?

Heh; anything you consider to be good.

I was quickly apprised that an "RSS feed" was not, as I had naively
imagined, some new and unspeakable form of sexual debauchery practised
by young persons of dubious morality, but a way of providing news
articles to the cybernetic publishing moguls of the World Wide Wait so
they can fill the airwaves with even more useless drivel.

I put up a few recent things at photosig. Some of them don't look
right, I guess the file size is too big or something, so the tones are
too light.

: Scarpman: Where can I see YOUR work?

I used to have a website that he put his dreck onto. It was fun to go there
from time to time for a good laugh. Unfortunatly I think he got tired of getting
laughed at so he took it down.

Because you don't put anything else up.  I doubt you even still own a
camera, let alone shoot.

I have no pathological need to exhibit anything, unlike this poor
bastard McCarthy, who is to be pitied rather than scorned. I own a
Leicaflex SL2 and 5 lenses, and I am in the middle of a project
documenting dilapidated old factories in my area. I do plan to show
some of these locally when I am finished, but I don't particularly
feel like showing them to YOU.

Oh quit lying scarpitiful--you didn't photograph all those big bands in the
70's and you aren't doing anything now except pissing of the rhinos at the
zoo. What a w.nker.

Technically, your gum bichromate work is outstanding. I have never seen such
clean and bright images from the process.  Some of you other prints could be
technically better.  Whatever the artistic intent of the image, good process
work benefits it.  Aestheticly, I tend to agree with MS.  I don't much like
what's on your website.  But that's just my taste in photography, and it
doesn't mean anything.  Some of the pinhole work and a few of the city
scenes were worth a look, however.  Your portraits and other things often
show some creativity, although they follow pretty closely with an artistic
style that I simply don't like.
