Set to appear in Bulgaria.

The executive director of Studio Channel Islands in Camarillo, CA was kind enough to send me snaps of 2 of my 3 pieces hanging in their gallery right now.

I am grateful to have been selected as part this month’s show.

A great title, since for portraitists this what we are dealing with. Frank Cordelle’s work collects portraits of females from birth to early 90’s and everywhere in between, in some cases the same person at two different ages. Each photo has a write-up, in most cases from the photographed person.

It’s not for the puritanical since there are underage people in the natural state and the opening photo is a crowning birth, but the material is not suggestive and it’s a beautiful collection that shows bodies and engaging gazes.

working that is.

I stumbled upon this little gem months ago at Half Price Books and didn’t look at it until yesterday when I was going through some of my collection. It’s a delightful little piece covering the work of Philippe Halsman and his wife who acted as his assistant during the course of his career. This little volume shows some of his pieces he took of famous people in the mid-20th century, including Einstein and Churchill, and includes behind the scenes photos and little notes from him and his wife about the event. I should have known his name; he made the photos with Dali of the cats and water and chair in the air, as well as the skull formed by nude female models.

One of the usual suspects is currently on fstoppers.com

(It’s the one of the woman by the river on the right side).

 

Opposite ends anyway. Two more digital appearances in far away (from me) lands.

Lexi will appear in Vietnam and the model in Burano will appear in Austria.

Off to Spain again, at least digitally. I hope they like Japanese…

Big day for this picture…

It also appears on Shutterbug thanks to Gurushots.

Clearly I’ve been submitting to too many contests; I keep losing track.

Members’ Exhibition 2020

At some point a few months ago I submitted some images to the AZ Photo Alliance for an online exhibition. I didn’t place in the viewer-liking system, but two of my images are still on display at the above site.

Go have a look and see what the other artists have done : )
