My Artwork Made It Back Home

My piece from the exhibition "Night" at the Center for Fine Art Photography just made the trip back home. Here are my boys trying to figure out this large package:

Unpacking. Here's the piece wrapped in foam core from inside the big box.

Artwork from inside the 2 boxes.

It made the trip just fine with no issues. The piece is still wrapped up because it's heading to Concordia University's Photo Biennial later this week. So stop by that opening if you'd like to see it.

Here are a few installation photos from "Night" at the Center for Fine Art Photography in Fort Collins. Follow that link for some photos, and there are more links at the bottom of that page with more photos from that exhibition if you're interested.

Upcoming Exhibition: Concordia University's Photo Biennial

I was asked to be part of Concordia University's Photo Biennial exhibition called "The Art of Teaching." It opens in less than a month. Here's the design for the front and back of the postcard:

Here's the link to the event on Facebook. Stop by 1301 Marshall Ave in St. Paul on September 8th from 5-8 pm for the opening! I'll be there.

Using a Nikon as a Chair

People have been talking about this image for the last few days:

People assume he's dumb for (1) using such an expensive lens as a chair, and (2) shooting with his cell phone while having a dSLR with a nice lens on it at his disposal. Well, I kinda feel the same as the rest of the world about #1, but regarding issue #2, he only has a long lens on that camera. If he needs to shoot something a bit wider, he'd need a different camera or lens. So maybe he's snapping a candid photo of a friend (or something) with his "normal" cell phone. There have been plenty of times I've had my dSLR around my neck and shot something with my phone instead. So cut him some slack.

But... as a Canon user... I'm TEMPTED to make the joke "Finally, someone using a Nikon the proper way!"
