Jeff Burger's photostream  

My goal is to entertain us both.

I am an art director relic.

Schooled at the University of Washington School of Art and The Burnley School of Professional Art, Seattle.

My favourite camera was my Hasselblad 500C.

Enjoy.

For the record: Some of my images are works of fiction fabricated in Photoshop [1] 'parody/satire', while others document actual moments in time. Whichever the case these works are created by me and are my intellectual-property under US Copyright Laws. Some photographic [2] 'collage images' may contain in part [3] 'stock photos' , purchased with unrestricted use from the author and or agent, and or are [4] 'Public Domain' material.

*1 [ Copyright issues as it relates to Parody/Satire, can be considered a derivative work under United States Copyright Law, it can be protected from claims by the copyright owner of the original work under the fair use doctrine, which is codified in 17 USC § 107. The Supreme Court of the United States stated that parody "is the use of some elements of a prior author's composition to create a new one that, at least in part, comments on that author's works." That commentary function provides some justification for use of the older work. See Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. In 2001, the United States Court of Appeals, 11th Circuit, in Suntrust v. Houghton Mifflin, upheld the right of Alice Randall to publish a parody of Gone with the Wind called The Wind Done Gone, which told the same story from the point of view of Scarlett O'Hara's slaves, who were glad to be rid of her. ]

**2 [ A collage (From the French: coller, to glue) is a work of art, primarily in the visual arts, made from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole. ]

***3 & 4 [ Stock photos (royalty free artwork purchased on disc files), Public Domain files, i.e. Public Libraries, etc. ... , used in part (Photoshop) are Public Domain: a range of abstract materials – commonly referred to as intellectual property – which are not owned or controlled by anyone. The term indicates that these materials are therefore "public property", and available for anyone to use for any purpose. ]
