Presentation – part of Langdon Review Weekend –
“BIG CAMERAS BIG FILM” JB & Susan Harlin
September 9, 2010
7:30-9:00 pm (second half of session)

J. B. and Susan Harlin (photographers), “Big Cameras, Big Film,” a 40 minute PowerPoint presentation/talk that covers the Harlins’ travels and what they do. J. B. and Susan also bring cameras, photographs, and samples of large negatives for Show and Tell.

J. B. and Susan work with film sizes that range from 4 x 10 to 16 x 20 inches. Using very large cameras and film allows a greater feeling of texture and reality not achievable with other media. Most of the finished photographs are created by placing these large negatives directly in contact with the printing paper. For more information, go to jbhphoto.com.

OUR AMERICA: Pictures from the Land

Last Monday Susan and I traveled to Stephenville to oversee the installation of our latest photo exhibition at the River North Gallery. We were pleasantly surprised to find the gallery had just finished painting and removing cabinets from the gallery walls. This allowed us to install 44 of our latest works, and we think it looks great.

We are now looking forward to December 6th and the show reception from 1-5 p.m. Again we would like to extend an invitation to everyone to drop by and join us. The exhibition will run through January 11, 2010, gallery hours are 9:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. For gallery information call 254-965-6190 or e-mail ctfac@our-town.com.

GETTING READY FOR AN EXHIBIT

Unless you have done one, you probably have little idea as to how much work goes into mounting a photography exhibition. We have done quite a bit of this, yet every time we start a new one, it never ceases to amaze me just how much time and effort is involved.

It all starts with the idea, then progresses through image selection, sequencing, mounting, matting, framing, transporting and installing. This exhibition will be somewhere around 35-40 prints, depending on exactly how it fits the space available. We have been working on this for near a month now, with the last week completely taken up with print room work.

We would like to invite everyone to drop by and take a look and if you are able, please stop by Sunday December 6th for the Artist Reception.

As always, thanks to everyone for your support, and we look forward to hearing your comments and to seeing one and all December 6th!
