Petronio in VC Magazine

[Frank Petronio]

Yep, you read it right, seven photos by yours truly in the July/August 2010 issue of View Camera (mailing 8/23).

They did a nice layout and the repro is good too ;-) Thanks Steve!

[Mark Woods]

Congratulations Frank!

[Scott Walker]

Congrats Frank!

[Kirk Keyes]

Congrats!

I let me subscription slip last year but I'll have to go out and get this one.

Kirk

[Oren Grad]

Now you're famous! :)

I let my subscription lapse too, but I'll try to swing by a newsstand for this one.

PS: your favorite picture of the summer is extremely cool.

[bvstaples]

Woot Woot! Now I can't wait to see it!

Congrats Frank.

[Frank Petronio]

OK I gotta warn you. It's G-rated.

[MIke Sherck]

OK I gotta warn you. It's G-rated.

Well, then, I hope they attached your name or we probably wouldn't recognize it. :)

Mike

[John Kasaian]

Congratulations!

[Harley Goldman]

Congratulations, Frank. Looking forward to seeing your images in the mag.

[sanking]

Congratulations, Frank.

But please explain the G-rated images!! Expected to see more.

Sandy King

[Rick Moore]

[David Karp]

Congrats Frank. Wow. I have not purchased two VC Mags in one year in a while!

[John Bowen]

OK I gotta warn you. It's G-rated.

Then these images MUST be by a different Frank Petronio than the guy that hangs out on the LF forum.....kind of like Earl and Ansel....:eek:

Congrats Frank!

[Preston]

G rated! How come, Frank? Just kidding.

Congratulations! I find your work very intriguing.

--P

[Mark Sawyer]

My congratulations as well, Frank!

But G-rated? What's next for you, non-alcoholic beer?

[John Jarosz]

Congrats.

John

[BrianShaw]

DANG... this is my kind of luck... I let my subscription lapse. DANG!


Well, nonetheless... many congratulations to Frank.

[jnantz]

congratulations frank!

[mercadov]

go Frank go! Congrats!

[Merg Ross]

Indeed, thanks to Steve. It is refreshing to see that his contributions to the large format community are acknowledged, without the negative rhetoric of past years.

And to you Frank, of course, a hearty congratulations!

[tgtaylor]

Which reminds me to renew my subscription. It should be good until December so I'm looking forward to seeing Franks work in the July/August issue and I received a Renewal Notice card from them (and Lensworks) a few weeks back so I'm paying my dues to both this week.

To echo a sentiment hinted at above, Steve should be a member of this forum. Many members, including QT, owe him and his magazine a lot.

Who the hell is this frank guy????
I look forward to getting a copy up here in western Canada and have to thank Frank
and the folks like him that encourage me to enjoy large format photography... in fact,
I am waiting for a Fatif 8x10 to arrive next week and Frank, your positive comments influenced my decision to give the big sheets a try. I am organizing a Photography show for the month of February in Canmore, Alberta... two weeks of film shots and two weeks of the other stuff. It is part of the Exposure 2011 celebration of photography in Calgary, Banff and Canmore.... a wonderful series of exhibitions, lectures and guest speakers. Stay tuned for more information and maybe i can get Frank to lend us a print to put in the film show.....
Congratulations, Richard Brown

[Duane Polcou]

That's awesome Frank, congratulations.

[jb7]

Very good-
If they really wanted to increase sales, they would have given you the cover...

[Richard Mahoney]

Very good-
If they really wanted to increase sales, they would have given you the cover...

And if they'd been *really* on to it they would have shrink wrapped it ;) ... And yes, I'd also like to say how pleased I am that your work's being covered -- will have to renew my sub -- and also to thank you for helping a good number of us stick at it ...

Kind regards, Richard

[eddie]

har har har. great work frank.

i let my subscription lapse as well......so send me your copy will ya? lol!

[B.S.Kumar]

If the photos are G-rated, maybe they were taken by Frank's Uncle Earl...

Congrats, Frank.

Kumar

[Ezzie]

Congratulations Frank, well deserved!

[Peter De Smidt]

[Frank Petronio]

Haha thanks everyone. This is what Steve needs to see ;-)

[SamReeves]

Me too, I quit subscribing ,then quit looking at B&N. I'll buy this one...EC

Same here, but this one I am curious about. Time for a trip to Borders! :D

[Rick Tardiff]

Good stuff, now I'm glad I renewed my sub...congrats Frank.

[venchka]

OK I gotta warn you. It's G-rated.

Good on you! Glad for the G rating. I can bring the magazine home.

[Rick Tardiff]

I just received my July/August copy of View Camera. 7 Photographs and text by Frank Petronio is an inspiration for anyone using the large format. What a strong selection/style. Wonderful, an inspiration.

[Ben Syverson]

Just saw this at B&N yesterday -- congratulations, Frank! It was great to see your images at better than web resolution, but even better to read the text you wrote and get some insight about your process and background. Well done!

[Frank Petronio]

Thanks everyone.

The Russian photo magazine picked mostly boobie photos so it all balances out ;-)

[dsphotog]

Thanks everyone.

Glad to hear they now have freedom of the press.
Where/how can we get a copy?

[Frank Petronio]

IDK if you can figure out where to purchase some extra issues online please let me know, I've been Googling and looking.

Here is the homepage for it: http://www.foto-video.ru/?langid=en

[Vaughn]

Congrats, Frank. Great looking spread!

[bvstaples]

Hey Frank, if I send you my copy, will you autograph it for me? Pleeeeze!!!!

[Armin Seeholzer]

Frank now you are famous, congrats!!!

Cheers Armin

[Colin Robertson]

Well done, and deserved. You have a great portfolio, and make better photos than some folk with bigger names and smaller talents. Keep on being you.

[Eric Biggerstaff]

Frank,

As I mentioned in another thread (heck, I didn't know this one had started), congrats! The work is outstanding and I greatly enjoyed reading about you and your methods.

Thanks!
Eric

[Drew Bedo]

Congratulations!

[Capocheny]

Hi Frank,

Just picked up my copy after reading this posting...

Nice images... especially the one titled, "Cris, East Aurora, NY"

Way to go!

Cheers

PS: Must also say that the images by Dr. Mark Nowaczynski were quite moving!

[dsphotog]

I finally found a copy at Borders!
Congrats Frank, your story and work are the highlight. Superb as expected!
I think this is the best issue of VC I've seen. Full of unique work.

Micheal Shindler's article on wetplate/tintype makes me want to give it a try.
Chris McCaw's work is extraordinary.

[Greg Lockrey]

OK I gotta warn you. It's G-rated.

Holy crap Frank... you sold out to corporate interests. ;)

Way to go anyway.
