Damn man!!! You guys in CA have a ton of shows I want to see. Will they still be there next year when I have some free time? :)

White Castle is a classic of night photography and this type of image is one that I am constantly on the lookout for when scouring for images after dark. It also brings dim memories of 10-cent hamburgers and 25-cent bowls of chili.

You west coast guys, don't miss this one. Of course I'll be 3000 miles away.

Okay, I'll stop posting. It really isn't fair to tantalize the less fortunate! However, most likely there will be plenty to see next year also.

I hope you're kidding. I really appreciate your posts about exhibits. Even though I can't get to them I always go to the links you provide and see what's there. E.g. when I went to the second link in your post about Paul Caponigro I saw a video of an interview with him that I never would have seen otherwise. So keep 'em coming please, those of us in the hinterlands appreciate them even when we can't get to the exhibit itself.

gonna have to make this one.. love his work

I was able to get a pre-release copy of his upcoming book LifeWork ( http://www.sevenbay.net/portfolio/print/2 ) over 400 excellent reproductions of his work. (pages are 12x12" )

Thanks Brian for your vote of confidence. Most of the announcements find their way to me in the mail, and if an appropriate link exists, I post it on the forum. The process somtimes reveals additional links, such as the Paul Caponigro video. So, I'll "keep 'em coming".

Scott was at the right place at the right time, as the saying goes. His photography instructor/mentor at Cal was William Garnett,who was teaching in the College of Environmental Design. Scott soon met Brett Weston, bought some of his prints at the 1970's bargain prices, and eventually opened his gallery. He has the complete collection of Brett's portfolios, which are currently being printed in book form by Lodima Press (Michael Smith).

Just went. Whatever you think of the composition and artistry of the images the printing is exceptional.

Here's a video trailer on a proposed video of George Tice (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_W21ooBE4g)
One of my favorite photographers.

Just went. Great images (I really like his work) and beautiful prints. I was surprised at the variety of print sizes since I think of him as mostly an 8x10 shooter. So nice to see a wide selection of his work. Definitely going back.

Back in the 1990's I was the Technical Rep for Falcon/Edwal (Edwal Photo Chemistry) and one day George Tice called up and had some questions about Edwal developers. Every now and then he would come to our booth at the Photo Plus trade show in NYC and we would talk about chemistry. Since so many fine art photographers are from the West, it is nice to count George Tice as a fellow native New Jerseyan.

Going this afternoon for the reception & book signing.

Thanks for the alert. Just came back. I have a couple pics of George. What amazing photographer.
