Lecture

How I did Dye Transfer Printing, from my 2010 lecture at the CPA

December 1, 2024

How I used to make prints using the Mythic Dye Transfer Process. Lots and lots of work! I'm so glad I don't do this anymore! I now print using an Epson Inkjet printer. This printer has greater sharpness and is more archival (lasts much, much longer). But, in the 1980s, dyes were considered the gold standard!

Lecture in England

April 20, 2024

This is the lecture I gave during the OnLandscape “Meeting of the Minds” conference in 2016. When I was teaching I gave many presentations like this, and I covered a little of my history, how I got into photography, and some of my trips to Australia.

Also, how I met some wonderful photographers like Ansel Adams and Don Worth. Then I discuss “the Tyranny of the New” and the wonderful book, “Vision and Art: The Biology of Seeing” by Margaret Livingstone, and why printing your images can lead to better images.

Finally, some musical tributes to Worth and Adams, then I'm interviewed by David Ward. WARNING! This lecture is more than an hour, and may induce sleepiness. Enjoy.
