gaps in perception


A few more addition to our bookshelf. one anny leybowitz, and two Joel Sternfeld, including his "american Prospects", which is the book that made me want to make photographs more then anything else, and especially to shoot large format. this is a big book, with big photographs of big things with a very big view of the world.
this is a paperback copy, and i guess well one day i will have a hard cover one. still its is incredible.

avocado and spyder

Our new book shelf



The first two arrivals to our photo book shelf and soon to be library are here.
they are Mary ellen mark's TWINS (2003) and Ansel Adams in color (1993).
lots to be said about both of them but you should look them up your selves.

Some time ago, i wrote a post about my connection through my dad to the infamous chevy corvair and through that to ralph nader.
almost 3 months have passed since this post and only now did i have a chance to scan these negatives.
its a funny thing that not a week after i met this guy with his corvair while going through yard sales, we went to a huge yard sale in Seekonk, where hundreds of people flock a big grass patch and have a humongous yard sale with anything and everything you can imagine one would sell and a few others things you cant even imagine. among all that crap and shit, just sitting there, between a bunch of star trek memorabilia,  were these 2 shiny chrome hubcaps off a chevy corvair. this was a nice closure to the story, too bad it only materialized as a post so much later. for what its worth. a car with a trunk where the engine should be, and a chrome plated flat, air cooled engine where the trunk should be. this guy loves it, and says since its a 67' its much safer then the other ones (and that being said, i doubt it is safe at all even if it is much safer then a very not so safe car), just make sure you don't buy one o'dem TURBO corvairs... they dont tend to last as long....
