Holiday Wishes From the Imaging Buffet

I recently sent this “e-card” out to the subscribers of our Inkjet & Imaging Tips Newletter, and thought I’d also share it with everyone who stops by the Imaging Buffet. My family and I wish all of our readers, listeners, friends and guests a very happy holiday season and a wonderful new year.

Sincerely,

The Darlow Family

In Memorium: Bruce Fraser

Well-known author and educator Bruce Fraser passed away at his home with family and friends by his side on 12/16/2006. I learned a tremendous amount from Bruce through the many books he wrote and seminars in which he participated. I was also fortunate to have spent time over the years speaking with him one-on-one about Photoshop, color management and digital printing. I will always remember his witty sense of humor, distinctive Scottish accent, and his warm smile.

I was also deeply moved by the many comments from people who have been influenced by Bruce. They can be found on PhotoshopNews.com.

I have no doubt that his sprit will live on and continue to influence many more people throughout the world. I wish his wife Angela and family my deepest condolences.

Photo Exhibition by Dan Burkholder on Display Until 12/31/2006

I just came across this captivating series of images. Photographer, author and educator Dan Burkholder has a photography show of his images entitled Shadows of Lives and Loss: Decaying Memories Along the Gulf Coast, photographed in the Gulf Coast region of the US after Hurricane Katrina. The show is on display until December 31, 2006 at Tammy Cromer-Campbell Photographs & Gallery in Longview, TX.

Dan Burkholder’s Gallery of images from the show can be found here. A very interesting online slide show with audio is also available online. Burkholder, Tammy Cromer-Campbell and Roy Flukinger, the Curator of Photography at the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center at the University of Texas at Austin speak about the project and I highly recommend listening. You can find the interview here.

On this page, you can select Dan’s series of images or work by other artists to get more information about their prints. I learned about this show from a great website run by Mary Virgina Swanson. I had an opportunity to attend Ms. Swanson’s lecture during the PhotoPlus Expo in November and I was amazed at the amount of great information she shared with the audience. Here’s a link to the seminar description page from the PhotoPlus Expo website. The seminar was entitled: Presenting your work to the fine-art community.

And here is a link to Dan Burkholder’s website. Dan is a longtime friend, and a fantastic teacher, photographer and printmaker.
