I just finished a model shoot. I haven't got any pictures yet, so if you were hoping for some cheesecake, this post will be a disappointment (I'm looking at you, Ken!) I just thought a few people might be interested in how this works, and besides, I need a break from all the law-and-order blogging. I did a couple of group model shoots last summer, and they were fun and educational, but now I wanted...

Henri Cartier-Bresson | Helen Levitt - Side by Side at Laurence Miller Gallery. "... Many wonderful juxtapositions of photographs by each will be shown: Cartier-Bresson’s children playing among the ruins in Seville share the energy and formal complexity found in Levitt’s boys playing with branches in a vacant lot in Spanish Harlem. A near perfect pairing juxtaposes Cartier-Bresson’s boy carrying a...

Thanks to Alan, a reader at tOP, I have finally found the famous picture of my brother that Henri Cartier-Bresson took in 1969 in Paris. Good picture too, usually titled "Sidewalk Cafe, Boulevard Diderot". Around 1981 when I was merely a teen, I showed my mother a book of HC-B's photos, and she suddenly got spooked out of her mind because this one showed my much older brother, who had died the year...
