Should have recommended this ages ago. Excellent intro to off camera lighting....as millions already know.

Two women on State Street, Chicago, December 2012. Lost in thought, apparently. An odd paradox that we all walk along the crowded streets in close proximity to each other, yet at the same are contained and isolated within our own private world. (Hip shot, 35mm, Pentax K5)

Some thoughts on Louis Faurer's place in American photography (inspired by an excellent collection of New York street photographs currently on exhibit at The Art Institute of Chicago)

Street Photographers -- Be careful out there. Make your own determination after viewing the video (which doesn't really show what led up to all of this) as to what the heck happened here.
I used to photograph a lot on the streets of San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter (which is where this looks like it occurred). The incident happened back in January, but Carlos on Pixiq was writing about it due to the surfacing of the YouTube vid.

If you're in the Chicago area, and you appreciate photography, DO NOT miss this exhibition at the Art Institute...an opportunity to see photographs, up close and personal, by the likes of Robert Frank, Helen Levitt, and Weegee, among others.

Portillos! A simple shot of a stranger having dinner -- or a microcosm of consumerism, over-indulgence, and corporate logos? (I've been reading too many artists statements lately...)

Tonight's dinner for the opening of the Olympics --
A Balkan-Meditteranean feast:
Clockwise from upper left: Homemade tzatziki; pita bread from local Alkhyam Bakery; greek salads with cucumber, kofinaki (Greek goat cheese feta), and kalamata olives; and the piece de resistance -- cevapi (Balkan skinless sausages made from ground pork, beef, plenty of paprika, grated onion and garlic, and pepper and seasoning salt) cooked on the grill.

From the "Color Me Stunned" Department:
Apparently one of my photos made it into Gapers Block Rearview yesterday. Very honored as I have always admired the Chicago area photos they use there.
So, thanks, +Gapers Block !

Invented on the South Side of Chicago (or so I have been told...), a serious game of bean bag toss on July 4th. The "official" game has only one hole in the board, but this was an interesting variant.

For the past 3 years I have been taking documentary photographs of the Balkan Spring Festival held at the University of Chicago's International House. The Festival, an annual event since the 1960's, celebrates the dance, music, culture, and food of the Balkan countries and Eastern Europe. Each year, I compile the photographs into a documentary video with music and narration. This is the video I produced for the 2012 Spring Festival.

1st Google+ Anniversay Chicago Photowalk today, organized by +Jordana Wright & +Cassius Wright . Had a great time and got to meet some new people., and get reacquainted with those I've met before. I've looked through some of the shots that other people took today and there's some really nice work there. A lot of talented photographers in this city!
Just putting up some black and whites now...hope to get to the color shots of "the gang" tomorrow.

"I am to my own heart merely a serf
And follow humbly as it glides with autos
And come attentive when it is too sick,
In the bad cold of sorrow much too weak,
To drink some coffee, light a cigarette
And think of summer beaches, blue and gay.
I climb the sides of buildings just to get
Merely a gob of gum, all that is left
Of its infatuation of last year."
Delmore Schwartz
