HT2225 - A Selective Literacy
There are so many photographers, so many books, so many exhibitions, that it's virtually impossible to achieve anything even close to visual literacy in photography. Instead, we each have our own understanding of photography based on a fractional appreciation of what's being and been produced. We all love photography, but what we mean by that is entirely dependent on our own selective literacy.

HT2224 - Printing Monochrome with a CMYK Press
Most commercial printing presses that you might employ to print your book will use the four-ink process that is the standard in the industry.

HT2223 - The Annual Best Of Series

HT2222 - Explore More Deeply
Starting in 2009, I produced a series of annual projects under the title, Winter Trees. Each year for seven years, I produced a new five-image project for the series which was produced as a folio and as a PDF. To date, this remains one of the most difficult projects I've ever done for the simple reason that each year it became progressively more difficult to see the same subject in a new and different way

HT2221 - Shadow Writing
I've always thought it was curious that photography is defined by its very nomenclature to be "light writing," but what we actually do is write the shadows onto white paper. If we think about what actually happens when we make our photographs, it helps make better decisions about how we control the exposure and what processing steps we need to pay attention to as we write the shadows onto the white background.
