JUST PUBLISHED!

The Photohumourist - Mixed Messages has just been published. This is an affordable, small format and softcover version priced at just £18 and is loaded with cultural anthropological wit. Much of the material was shot in New York City with some made in Inwood.

When previewing, please expand the view to full screen to best appreciate it as some of the pictures are quite detailed.

The photographs that make up this body of work come from personal and professional assignments dating back to about 1996.

It features some of my best and most thought provoking work to date.

This is a premium quality book using paper that is 35% heavier than regular photo book stock. It has superb opacity and a lustre finish.

I chose a square format for this book so that all the images, whether vertical or horizontal, would feature at the same size. There's an image on each page and on each spread the two images play off each other in hopes of creating some wit and tension.

It's a detailed little book. One that you can really get your teeth into.

I hope you enjoy it and that you'll tell your friends and colleagues about it.
Thank you for your time.

Blatant trumpet blowing

It's that time of year again when we consider our Christmas shopping list. Well, perhaps I can make things a little easier for you. Any doggy people in your life? How about those who appreciate good photography and a little visual wit? Yeah, you've guessed correctly, it's time for me to plug again my first little book, Woofers. Sorry about the crazy music in this piece. I thought it was a hoot.

Tomorrow I will start a new series called On The Way To School. I realized the two days per week that I walk to and from school with my kids yield wonderful possibilities for witty pictures. This will be a regular feature that will do my best to be consistent on. Some of the pictures will be rather average, I expect, but I think there ought to be some gems from time to time too. Let's wait and see.

Okay, back to the task at hand...
