From 2006 to 2017 I wrote a series of short essays about photographers--some well-known, some obscure--as a platform for #photography discussions called the Sunday Salons.

This piece, from 2009, is about the Japanese photographer Eikoh Hosoe.

Because it's #Noirvember. As the poet Chandler said, "It is not a fragrant world, but it is the world you live in."

Apparently it's #NationalBlackCatDay, so I'm not going to complain. Just gonna point out that somebody put a pillow on my reading chair (yes, I have a preferred chair for reading) and now this wee bastard thinks he owns it. He is NOT the boss of me.

Well, you know...bollards and all. Four of them. Yellow. Also? Milk crates (yellow as well).

"It flows thru us all."

I'd like to think this is true, but the evidence is weak.

I used to write short essays about photographers for a Flickr group called Utata. It occurs to me that some Bsky #photography folks might enjoy them. If so, I'll post them occasionally

This is about Jason Eskanazi from 2012.
