Hallo!

Loved seeing these photos of light and colour and abstract composition - thank you!

And keep posting. I’m going to show your Substack to one of my A level art students next week - think she’ll find it inspiring

Thanks for your comment, Linda. If your student has a particular question or interest, I would be happy to address it in a future post. She has no doubt already discovered some of the many talented women photographers. I’m currently reading a book, Women Street Photographers, which features the work of some of the people I follow on Instagram (where I’m @mark_mcguire). It’s a great introduction to some photographers whose work deserves to be celebrated and shared.

Marvelous! I saw the installation in person and focused on the panels arrayed on the wall. Your photography has transformed Baumann's installation into another artwork, fusing the interior display of light with the street scenes outside the windows (which I never thought to look through, being caught up in the interior display). I was particularly partial to the self portrait of man with camera ...

I felt an immediate sense of identification with the Self Portrait of a Man With a Camera. The more closely I studied it, the more I seemed to enter into the work.

I love hitting more art galleries when I have the time, or feel uncreative.

Really enjoy the way you caught the colors, and light in play within these frames; been reading about the effects of color on personality. So this was a fun exhibit to see.

Also, love how present you are in your environments.

Thanks. I love it when a gallery space is as interesting as the work it presents.

That you can "see" these images where few else can is quite special. Keep it up!
