Hey friends, just a short post today; something to inspire you. I am officially out of the woods with my COVID bug, which feels terrific. Thank you again to everyone for the well wishes. It’s good to be back.
I wanted to share another short film with you today. Tim Walker, one of my Bluesky photography friends, sent this over earlier: a beautiful piece by the Metropolitan Museum of Art about photographer Sue Cassidy Clark. I watched it while sipping my coffee this morning. It’s a real treat, and I know many of you will love it. I went in cold, and you should too. Enjoy!
Speaking of Bluesky, I have been spending more time there lately and am very much enjoying it. If you are exploring that space, you can find me here.
I’ll leave you with this: It turns out that I have become a middle-aged man who photographs flowers. Kristen and I have been recovering from COVID with early morning walks around the neighborhood this week. It’s a gorgeous time of year in Madison: the air is cool and damp, and everyone’s garden is slowly dying. The flowers are exhausted and falling over, yet they remain very beautiful. Simple joys, right? 🌸
Thank you so much for sharing that video. Ms. Clark is lovely and so charming. Her commitment to making photographs is clear as she speaks. And I appreciate how understated she is while talking about her photographic subjects. I will show this to my students!
She is wonderful.
