Former President Carter’s hometown of Plains, Georgia, has a gallery now up to 70 photographs. I just added more from the Carter Boyhood Farm, taken March 4th, 2021. Enjoy!
Gallery for Plains, Georgia updated
Macon Downtown Gallery Updated
Gerald and I spent a lovely Sunday afternoon wandering around downtown Macon, resulting in an updated gallery. Take a look.
Note: the gallery is arranged chronologically, with the oldest photographs at the top.
Downtown Gallery Updated (and… Updated)
As mentioned yesterday, Gerald purchased a Voigtlander Ultron 21mm f1.8 — a very nice, German-owned (Japanese-made), manual-focus lens — last month, and he was kind enough to loan it to me for a couple of days.
We — that is, the lens and I — went for a short photostroll in downtown Macon this afternoon. Check the results in the updated gallery.
Edit, 6 March, 2021: I’ve rejigged the Macon galleries, and the featured photograph from this post is now in the Macon – Miscellaneous gallery (as the Catholic church is up the hill from downtown).
Rose Hill Gallery Updated (Again)
My good friend Prof. Gerald Lucas has been collecting lenses again, and since we both shoot with Leica L-mount cameras, we’re able to share — and he was kind enough to do precisely that. (Thank you, sir!). He’s added classics like the Asahi Super-Takumar 50mm f/1.8, Olympus Zuiko 28mm f/2.8, and Юпитер-8 (Jupiter-8) 2/50. (He’s added a brand-new Voightlander Ultron 21mm f1.8, as well — nice.)
Rose Hill and Riverside serve as familiar ground for us, meaning that when new photographic tools are available, we go there to see how well we work together; the gallery is twelve years old. See the update here. Enjoy.
Two Macon Galleries Updated
December photostroll, part 2! Once again, Prof. Gerald Lucas and I were out testing new camera gear. Check out the updated Riverside Cemetery gallery and the Macon Downtown gallery, both updated today. Thanks for looking.
Macon’s Rose Hill Cemetery Gallery Updated
My good friend Prof. Gerald Lucas, his friend Ernest, and I wandered around ye ol’ stomping ground: Rose Hill Cemetery, here in Macon, testing out new camera gear. See the updated gallery.
Greenville Photography Gallery Updated
Enjoyed a photostroll in Greenville, South Carolina, with good friend Prof. Gerald Lucas. See the updated gallery here.
Great Q&A with “The Light Collective”
An Australian group of photographers called The Light Collective has an interview in the Aussie pro photography magazine Capture. Aside from the great imagery, there’s an excellent discussion regarding what landscape photography is about, and why working together with a group can result in a sum greater than the parts.
For all interested in taking their photography to the next level, especially folks who aspire to great landscapes, its a great read.
The United Kingdom, Revisited
In 2011, my good friend Gerald Lucas gave me an irresistible opportunity: almost a week in England. He was teaching there that summer, and there was University housing available — which meant a visit for the price of a plane ticket, food, and a rental car. One word: absolutely.
Needless to say, I went with camera in-hand — Nikon back then, specifically a D3 with 24-70 and 70-200 lenses — and made it into one large photostroll.
Today, thanks to migrating my Aperture libraries to Lightroom, I had the excuse to revisit some of these images, re-edit some, and repost — a new total of 357 photographs. Take a trip to London, Cambridge, Winchester, Salisbury, and Bath with me. Enjoy!
