Looking at one photograph at a time
Copyright 2008 Douglas Stockdale I have been looking at the photographs that I made in 2008 for my project Places in Between, which in retrospect was not all that well thought out. It was part of SoFoBoMo, so I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to photograph, but the concept was not... Continue Reading →
Copyright Douglas Stockdale I just received an update from Colin Jago that SoFoBoMo 2011 dates have been announced for the 2011 event: July 1 through August 31st. I also posted a brief announcement on The PhotoBook, so some more information available there as well. In a case of rust remover for those not familiar with... Continue Reading →
When we decided to put new flooring down in the studio, we also realized that we needed more individual working space. So we ordered some more furniture, which meant that everything did not go back into place after we had the new flooring installed.

The fuzzy month for SoFoBoMo 2009 have been selected, which will allow for the 30 days of maddness to occur between the begining of May until the end of June, 2009. So I have some time to think if I will join in this year, probably depending on a suitable series that has my attention at... Continue Reading →
Just a quick update. While I was preparing my workshop materials for the pending POD (Print on Demand) class in Portland, I was reviewing some of my earlier postings about creating a POD book. And then I received a call from Laura Russel about my book, Sharpening Photographs for Blurb Printing. You may not know that I wrote... Continue Reading →
