An announcement is in order: We are thrilled to announce that Alan Ross will be a regular contributor to Looking Glass. Ross needs no introduction to the large format community and we are happy to have him. He is both a talented photographer and an innovative darkroom technician. It goes without saying that Ross worked with Ansel Adams for five years and is still the exclusive printer of the Yosemite Special Edition negatives. He is also the author of several e-books and continues to lead workshops in the field as well as the darkroom. Learn more about Alan’s auspicious beginnings in his column, The Way I See It.
Also in this issue: Our featured artists are Linda Connor and Maggie Diaz, their portfolios are simply transforming. Connor’s photographs are like windows into an exotic time-travel adventure that we would love to be a part of. Diaz’s portfolio transports us to mid-century Chicago and conveys the photographer’s intimate engagement with her subjects and the period in which they lived. John Wimberley continues the story of Descending Angel, 1981 in his column, The Silver Bulletin. In One for the Road, Bob Kersey searches the California coast to find his own Hwy 1. Gordon Undy pulls another print from his personal vault for our ongoing series, My Collection. In Nuts & Bolts, our first ‘how-to’ article, Undy will walk us through View Camera 101, where we will refine the technique of “focussing”. Finally, in Ramblings, David Roberts ponders a potent similarity—to experience photography in the same elemental way that we respond to music. LG12 is a big issue! As my late and warmly-esteemed mentor used to tell me, “There’s always room for cello”. Enjoy!
