photographic essays
i hate to admit it sometimes, but i must be "results" oriented….i see myself as outrageously "freewheeling"….independent and free at all costs…reckless sometimes…loving loving the journey…..BUT, in seeming contradiction, i am also a "results" person…theorizing that no philosophic discussion at the end of the bar is worth much without "end results"…. so it was with …
priorities…sequencing….what comes first, what comes second, what can wait for later….priorities in life and career and priorities in the sequencing of photographs….what applies to one, may quite apply to the other…the decisions we all make are as important as the actions we take…and it is the decision making process and the prioritizing of actions in …
i usually enjoy "burying the lead" to my stories here…putting the "key" to the story somewhere towards the end….to make you read the whole thing!!! or simply to pique your sense of "discovery"… not this time…. i announce now, to the readers of this forum, the offering of a $5,000. (u.s. dollars) stipend/grant for one …
i probably lost all of my hair because i pulled it out while trying to edit photographs….this most anguishing process just goes with the territory of being a photographer…who among us has not suffered during the editing nightmare?? i am even writing this post right now to "delay" what i really should be doing … …

ok, the time has come…..please send now your work for this forum……20 picture limit please….within this framework you can submit 20 unrelated singles, or any combo of "essays" but not to exceed 20 pictures in all…in other words an "essay" could be five- 4 picture combos or 20 coherent photographs or two essays of 10 …
there was no internet…at least not for me that is….i thought i would be able to report to you from perpignan,…..however, i secured a nice little apartment on a charming street and in a perfect location, but no internet connection… probably like most of you, if i go "off" the net even for a few …
no joke….every year i say i will not be able to make it to perpignan (Visa P’our L’Image) and every year for the last ten years i have been on hand….my original visit to perpignan ( which i had not even heard of at the time) was when jean francois leroy invited me to show …
there is no moss growing on this rolling stone…just back to new york yesterday from korea and now off in a few hours for a short assignment for Fortune magazine in london/paris…i just need a few pictures of the high speed TGV train….this is a pretty short "turn around" time for me, but not really …
i just finished dinner with a bunch of my new friends made in seoul these last three weeks….my photo shoot "fixers", my workshop students, and my readers from this online forum …all came to say goodbye and please come back….i will…somehow i got hooked on a city/country i had little knowledge of before i came …
