I feel like Old Photos Find Me…

Maybe because I love them so much. When I was in Italy a few years ago, I bought an old book at the Cortona antique market, held one weekend a month in the open piazza. This photo was hidden in the leaves. I am particularly enchanted with this one because I want to know the story. Who are they? What are these people like? Are they fun at parties?

It also reminded me of the photograph I had done on Jekyll Island, Georgia earlier that same year. I am quite fond of the idea of Victorians on the beach.

The Specter in the Monster Park

Aptly named the Monster Park and one of my favorite places, and you never know what is going to appear.

Who are the Dogs?

The Cortona Center of Photography would like to thank our Italian dog friends who have been such great models for us over the years.

They have their positions well established in the local community, with places to go, people to see. Their daily agendas are set as they make the rounds, on their own or with their people, but they always have time to stop and say hello or pose for a photo when we cross paths with them during the workshop.
