NYC Weekend June 7th and 8th - Infrared B&W

I had  a great weekend running around NYC with my camera!  I took photos around New York Public Library, Bryant Park and Central Park.  There are many more to edit and share in the weeks to come.  It was only a few days ago, but seems like weeks.  Since Then I have taught a nature photography workshop for 8 people with Mike Malandra and then today I hung my new show at the Flywheel Gallery in Piermont, NY.  The opening reception of the show is this Saturday from 5-8pm.  If you are in the area please do stop in and say hi.  The show is called "Close to Home"  My last two solo shows have been been travel photos from Italy / London / Cape Cod and upstate NY.  This time I limited my shooting to 50 miles from my home and showed off the beauty of the Hudson Valley.  I am really proud of the Infrared prints in this show they are printed on traditional fiber based silver gelatin paper that has been selenium toned.  There is nothing quite like a traditional B&W print on fiber paper after all these years and new options for printing it is still the high water mark for B&W printing.  Stop in to the show and see for yourself.  The prints are extraordinary, they were printed by the brilliant folks at Digital Silver Imaging.

Exciting News!

I have been invited to be part of an exhibit of Infrared Photography at Digitial Silver Imaging in Belmont, Ma.  The show is called "Beyond the Visible Spectrum".  I am thrilled to have been invited to have a couple of my photographs hang with Artists of the caliber of Laurie J. Klein, Ron Rosenstock, Tony Sweet.  The show runs until the end of May.  I will be heading to Boston Thursday night (May 15th) for the opening.  If you are in the area stop in and see this great show.  The reception is from 6 to 8 pm.

Infrared

On my way home this afternoon I was lucky enough to wander around Orange County photographing barns.  It is the perfect time of year for infrared photos.  Lots of greens and strong skies are perfect.  Do you prefer the color ones or the traditional B&Ws?

Tomorrow I plan to head to Sullivan and Ulster Counties for more photos.

Storm Clouds Gather in the 'Gunks

Had a family lunch up at the Moutain Brau House in the Shawangunks yesterday.  We were early so I stopped at the overlook above the first hairpin turn heading to Minnewaska.  Was able to catch these beautiful B&Ws of storm clouds above New Paltz.  Lesson... Always have a camera with you.
