Looking at one photograph at a time
Me (photo by Wendy Hicks) at Duncan Miller gallery, Santa Monica, CA Yesterday afternoon was a fun and interesting event being a participant at the Duncan Miller gallery Photo Art Book Fair held in Santa Monica.

Okay, this is part two following on from yesterday's article about the potential for shooting Stock Photography, which is one more post than I planned, but I am on a roll.

I recently received an update from Photolucida (Portland, OR) that they are hosting a Nortwest Summer Portfolio Review. My article about the phtoto review that I participated at in Palms Springs received a lot of attention, thus I want to provide another opportunity, but regretfully it is already sold out!

Having completed a day of portfolio reviews the day before at the Palm Springs Photo Festival, I would like to share my thoughts about the entire process, especially for those who have not been through one, but are considering it. The portfolio review concept is based on you being able to meet with someone who's opinion... Continue Reading →
Just a quick note that Miguel Garcia-Guzman (Exposure Compensation) and I are looking at our options for attending Connect 08, aka the Palm Springs Photo Festival, at the end of this Month.
