I see a lot of strong black and white, and monochrome, showing up along with the spectacular color. / And let me take this opportunity to thank you again for the extent to which you all enhance my visual experience and knowledge. I am filled with admiration for the photographers here, your skill, the unusual subject matter, brilliant captures of impossible color and shadow, and sense of play. / I’m a generation’s difference at least to many of you, and the photographers much present in my growing up life are not the same ones you know. When I posted the portrait I did of Georgia O’Keeffe, using the Alfred Stieglitz photograph of her, I was surprised that he was unknown to many. So if you’d had some pleasure in discovering these Americans of yore, may I direct you to a few other favorites of mine? / One, a photographer of the north west wilderness & Yosemite, who trudged around mountains with a huge Hasselblad, or Agfa or one of its ancient view camera relatives, is Ansel Adams. He was famous for long exposures and a brand new crystal clarity in pictures that few equaled. / Two, (also three four & five) The Weston family: Brett, Edward, and Cole. The latter recently passed away. The whole family did brilliant work, Brett’s my favorite, he worked in the forties, possibly into the 80’s, the family lived long lives. I know them from the area I live in and their ongoing fame in San Francisco, they’re locals survived by grandchildren keeping their galleries and memories alive. Again, pioneers in black and white film, and people whose work may interest the fine practitioners here. I wish I had the sense to put a link here, but if you type in any of their names, pages of their work appear. I hope it’s a good romp for newcomers to these boys.
