I've posted 11 new images. With the warm weather coming I expect to take a lot more photographs. Recently I have been reading a lot of John Brinckerhoff Jackson. Actually he played a large role in the research for my 3rd residency paper. I went to see Ralph Gibson at a PRC talk at B.U. He is an old school type of photographer. I didn't hear him once talk about photography as a post-modern form of representation. LOL. I ran into a few AIB students there too. Next week Larry Sultan will be at Mass Art and Tina Barney at another PRC talk. I plan to go to both. Jeff Wall, well what do I say? I've been reading quite a bit about him and still haven't made up my mind about his work. Here is a link to an iTunes podcast by him at an artist talk. It's very good.
I recently picked Jeff Brouws's new book Approaching Nowhere. I have an affinity to him though he's a bit more pessimistic about the future.

Hey Bill!
I hope life is treating you well! I'm SO jealous you're able to go to see Tina Barney at PRC, as well as their other artist lectures. How awesome!
It looks like you've gotten into a good groove of working. These new shots seem more focused on your interests... I specifically like 2169, 2150, 2119. There's something interesting about these buildings illuminated at night yet abandoned. :)
