I’m very excited about what’s now possible in the magical realm of Digital Infrared. The seminar Fuji’s Brandon Remler and I did in January at at B&H was enthusiastically received, and we’ll be presenting a similar seminar, featuring Fuji’s factory-modified Is-Pro and IS-1digital infrared cameras, at SPE in Denver in March. I’ll also be leading a number of hands on in-depth 5-day infrared workshops in 2008.

(Check the “Teaching” menu at the top of the page for a detailed 2008 workshop schedule.)

Norway in May was amazing, as usual. Great workshop, fantastic roadtrip to shoot industry in Sweden, and being in Oslo for the National Day on the 17th was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The exhibition of my landscape photographs at Fotografiens Hus Gallery in downtown Oslo was a success, and there’s talk of another in 2008.

I’m happy to report that my Exhibition and the Workshop Pål Otnes and I are presenting in Oslo are already receiving favorable attention from the photography press in Norway. Take a look at fotografi.no, the website for Norway’s best photo magazine.

“Seeing Is Believing,” a gallery exhibition of my black-and-white landscape photographs, opens on May 4th at Fotografiens Hus in downtown Oslo. There’s a reception party from 6-9pm if you’re in the neighborhood.

The prints that make up this exhibition feature images made in Norway (happily, I’ve been visiting Norway often since 2003 to teach and to photograph), as well as the US, Canada, Western Europe, and Japan. In addition to the exhibition Pål Otnes and I will be teaching a special Digital Workshop, and we may even take a road trip into Sweden to photograph abandoned industrial sites. In fact, it looks like I’ll be spending most of the month May in Norway - including May 17th, which is the Norwegian National Day; I hear it’s quite a party!

Thanks to the writer Morten Loberg, who attended one of my Photoshop workshops in Norway last year, several bodies of my work are featured in an eight-page spread in Fotografi Magazine, Norway’s premiere photo publication. Very exciting!

In addition, my dear friend Pål Otnes is now writing a regular Photoshop column in the magazine. If you read Norwegian, make sure to subscribe!

For your viewing pleasure the “Recent Work” section now features photos from Norway, including the debut of a couple of never-before-seen landscape images.

(The images which were previously in this section have been relocated to other galleries on the site, primarily “Earth and Sky.”)

The 2006 Workshop schedule includes Palm Beach in March, ICP in NY during the Summer, Santa Fe in October, and at least three separate events in Norway.

Commercial work for Airspan and Albemarle Design may also take me to Helsinki, England, and Uruguay.

I’m also working on lots of new black-and-white pictures, for possible of exhibitions in London and Oslo this year.
