Indeed, but my 20th-century stock is becoming problematic. I opened a box of 8x10 Astia less than a year ago and cut 25 sheets, resulting in 50 5x7s. I used about two dozen to photograph Gateway Arch...

WTTW, the Chicago area’s PBS affiliate, aired a story about my visit to Indiana Dunes National Park, where I hauled out my Canham 5x7, like I do whenever a new national park is designated. I thought...

If the institution and artist thought it is desirable to provide a on-line version of an exhibit, they would have done so. Since obviously they didn't, I'd suggest it best to respect their will, esp....

I take "Sold out" to mean "sold out from the publisher", not a particular store.

You are saying that if there is demand, there will reprint, but that's not a given, there has to be enough demand...

Sold out? Doesn't look like it from here: https://www.amazon.com/Sally-Mann-Crossings-Sarah-Greenough/dp/1419729039

The best photography exhibit I've ever seen. Prints are considerably more impactful than the reproductions, but if you cannot attend, the book includes all artwork on display plus (too?) many essays...

Three things:

If you purchased the book on Amazon, if you would leave a review (http://www.amazon.com/dp/1944903003/ ) I'd be much grateful. Although you may think that since there are already...

According to NPS numbers as used by my methodology, Zion is the 7th most crowded national park: https://www.terragalleria.com/blog/the-less-crowded-national-parks-by-the-numbers/

Congratulations on winning the AIR and thank you for the report. I am curious to know on which figures you rely for the statement "Zion is the second busiest park in the country"?

Couldn't agree more, in addition they are doing a good job supporting traditional photographic processes.

It was relevant enough to cause the exhibition to close early (and the photographer to be called "controversial"): ...

Museums have no interest in Burkett's work (and in other color nature landscape photography) not because it is lacking "intellectual depth" but because at this point in history it is not considered a...

I meant to write "What was repeatable was that unopened, frozen film...". Sorry for adding to the confusion.

Fortunately, the consequences of using expired film are not as severe as playing...

All good points. The main reason I saved money was that it was bought as expired, cold-stored film (from Freestyle is I remember) for about 20% of retail.

What was repeatable was that unopened, frozen film gave good results regarding of film expiration date so far.

When you have used several hundreds sheets of film with repeatable results, it is more than chance.

Although this didn't make me rich, it did save thousands of dollars, not to mention let me use...

In the post, I wrote that after taking out the film in 2013, I put it back in the freezer. Yet, there was quality loss compared to the film which was never taken out of the freezer and never opened.

I still use Fuji Astia stock that expired in the last century (1999!). In 2013, I opened a box and cut film to photograph Pinnacles National Park. The exposures I made were just fine, and I put the...

I've posted on my blog a review of Jack Dykinga's "A Photographer's Life", which was one of my favorite books published in 2017:

Any recommendation for a current lab that can process 5x7 transparencies? Location (U.S.) indifferent as long as they accept mail-order jobs, but cost is a factor!

Alan, Will, see clarification on OP. Self-published can easily be on Amazon. In general it is not possible to identify the printing company.

Nothing prevents a self-publisher from hiring a book...

If you learn that an author/photographer self-published his book, does that make you respect him more or less?

Are you more likely to buy a self-published book v. a traditionally published one?

I am honored that photographs from Treasured Lands will be on display during November at the California State Building in San Francisco. The State Building is located on Civic Center Plaza, next to...

Thanks for sharing. My freezer-stored Astia sheets have an expiration date of 2000. A few years ago, I got good results with prompt shooting and processing. However, when I let exposed film sit for a...

I've read quite a few stories about photographers buying quantities of their favorite soon-to-be-discountinued light-sensitive materials and storing them in freezers, but I am curious how long you...

You are not missing any new developments.

The forum is not like press, topics appear when someone feels like starting a discussion, not necessariy when they are current.

The book is still in...

So far the discussion has been only about size - not an unimportant consideration. What do you think of the fact that Szarkowski chose to omit Monolith from the exhibit, in favor of many obscure...

Maybe because, as clearly argued in the Brower article, AA liked big prints, even if not "bed sheet size" ?

Kenneth Brower's review of the exhibit Ansel Adams at 100 was very critical (https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2002/07/ansel-adams-at-100/302533/) and his assessment appears quite...

After the first two, I didn't want to bug you with a dripping of individual award announcements in this thread, but now that the main award season is over, I am very pleased to report that Treasured...

My daughter is correct and demonstrates a better understanding of the contemporary art world than most. Note she didn't say that photographs needed to be better. So ouch! but pround.

There is currently a superb exhibit at the San Jose Museum of art, with B&W work from Ansel Adams, Dorothy Kerper Monnelly (a East Coast large format landscape photographer) and Ernest H. Brooks II,...

I've added the exhibit that we organized at our (long defunt) Santa Monica gallery in 2008. We were proud to host possibly the last retrospective of his work, and also the first web page featuring...

Besides the strong and pure vision in the photographs, I found the memoir to be very engaging. I was surprised to see how back then a fresh high-school graduate could knock at the door of so many...

The exhibit has been extended to June 26, and there is a new event scheduled on the last day: Gallery walk and book signing on Monday, June 26 7PM.

Thanks to the Mercury News for the feature:...

After its national tour, my exhibit "Treasured Lands: Photographs of National Parks" will be on display in San Jose CA for the next month. I'd be honored to see you during one of the two events:

Thank you so much Willie. To bring Treasured Lands to fruition, I had to make a substantial investment. The publisher is a small family-owned company. They have few resources for marketing, so I am...

I am honored that "Treasured Lands" has won a second book competition, with the Gold Medal for the category "Arts and Photography" in the 2017 IBPA Benjamin Franklin awards. For nearly 30 years, the...
