Gene Lemuel's ESO Gallery in Los Angeles presents until May 11 the work of Rusty Long, a surfer, journalist, writer and photographer. He writes: From the first step into the water to the initial glide onto a wave, a Smooth Entrance determines so many of the sequential moments. It sets the correct pace.

Alcatraz Since 2020 I’ve visited Alcatraz - the former prison island in San Francisco Bay – to reflect on pandemic-era themes of isolation, confinement, and social control. Alcatraz is Spanish for a type of bird. We say “free as a bird,” but some birds live in cages. Sometimes they are jailbirds.
