I seek the particular point of view, attempting to eliminate…
My 70s It's been a great pleasure to browse through my film files from the 70s. I really enjoyed reviewing my photos from the time when I worked with a rolleiflex that I sold with a Nikon FM to buy a Leica M6 to be like the greats of the time. Back then, you could swap these cameras for another model on sale. Nowadays, I work with digital cameras, which…
Carbonated Zinnias These are an exploration into a new way of shooting flowers, something I haven't seen before. As an experiment, I wondered how these flowers would react to being immersed in a clear carbonated liquid, and it showed me something new and enticing. I then continued to experiment with light and dark backgrounds, and then food coloring added to the liquid.

Thierry Maindrault's Monthly Chronicle It is common knowledge that quality and quantity do not go well together. An increase in containers inexorably leads to a weakening of the contents.

The damage resulting from an exponential growth, which is often anarchic, ultimately proves to be catastrophic, when it is not fatal. The…
