Italian Landscape – Morolo

Morolo Copyright 2010 Douglas Stockdale While working on my project Ciociaria, I had the opportunity to wander through the area surrounding the hill-side city of Morolo. I had paused to photograph one area, but when I was about to leave, I decided to follow another rule of thumb of mine; to turn around and look at what else might... Continue Reading →

Milan Fashion Week

Photographs copyright Douglas Stockdale I have just completed the development and sequencing of my recent photography project, Milan Fashion Week, which is currently available in a blog style photobook layout. More about this conceptual presentation in just a moment. BTW, what follows is not your normal photographic artistic statement, I am just not up to that today. First, if... Continue Reading →

Milano Fashion Week – an update

Accessorize Copyright 2010 by Douglas Stockdale Last year after initiating my project Milan Fashion Week, it quickly began to look like this little project was the project that couldn't. While I was after transferring the digital files from my portable to my desktop computer last September, I somehow lost all of my files and was only able to recover part...

Rome – FCO VIP Lounge

Rome Airport - FCO - VIP Lounge copyright 2010 Douglas Stockdale I am back from almost a month in Europe, part Holiday and part Day Job, with some photography worked into the edges. I am still working on a somewhat stealth project about business travel, somewhat akin to my earlier Insomnia: Hotel Noir photo-project. As titles go, similar... Continue Reading →

Environmental Portrait – Mon Bistrot

Mon Bistrot, Boulogne, France copyright 2010 Douglas Stockdale Arriving early, I had the opportunity to survey the restaurant unencumbered and noted how they had created a warm and inviting place. Perhaps they had not envisioned this composition, but I did. Now a nice memory, especially for the nice mix of crab and grapefruit as the appetizer, unusual but very tasty. Best regards, Douglas

Industrial Landscape – Frankfurt

Frankfurt International Airport, Germany copyright 2010 Douglas Stockdale Walking through the Frankfurt International airport, I glanced to my left and stopped dead in my tracks. What a beautiful sight! I am not sure why I find these industrial construction sites so fascinating, but I do. I think I can trace my current interest in these industrial... Continue Reading →

Bologna Fountain

Bologna Fountain (Italy) detail, copyright 2010 Douglas Stockdale -  Sometimes during my journeys, I happen across something that causes me to realize; I am not in Kansas anymore...or Iowa or most anywhere in our southern United States...LoL Best regards, Doug

The PhotoBook – 2nd year anniversary

Milano Italy magazine rack copyright 2010 Douglas Stockdale I just realized that my blog The PhotoBook, where I am providing a wide assortment of thoughts and news about (fine art) photobooks is now at the second year anniversary mark. I think that I have a little over 140 photobbooks that I have reviewed and a ton more in the wings waiting... Continue Reading →

Ciociaria – Fiuggi landscape

Ciociaria, Fiuggi Landscape copyright 2010 Douglas Stockdale Midway between the ancient city of Fiuggi and the realitively modern "spa" town at the base of the hill, is an in-between place, as ambougious as the history of Ciociaria. It has the ear marks of a place that is neither one or the other, but came about over... Continue Reading →
