Edward Steichen: Twentieth-Century Photographer
An exhibition of the work of photographer Edward Steichen. Showing at The deCordova Museum in Lincoln, MA until March 19. You may have discovered Steichen as I did in the exhibition catalogue of the great “Family of Man” show, curated by Steichen in 1955. The photographer’s ground-breaking work helped photography gain recognition as an art form in a world of skeptical art critics. Marvel at his dramatic portraits of Hollywood stars, still life compositions, high-fashion, flowers, and city scenes.

Autumn Pond at Peak Color

In spite of the drought that has dried up New England since the summer, the fall color has turned out to be surprisingly good. Here’s a shot that uses 3 different exposures to capture the wide dynamic range of this scene. I use Photomatix Pro to create fine HDR images. This photograph is available as a fine art print or, licensed from commercial use.

Tidal Pond in Mid-Winter Light

A freshwater pond in Manchester-by-the-Sea is flooded with seawater from nearby Kettle Cove on a late winter afternoon. Four separate exposures combined to render an image closest to what I saw.
