Lassal / Dark – photography
It came and it went and it was a very special time with a lot of people I had not seen for a year or so. Memorable also for finding out that no matter who you meet and where, somehow you will always have common friends. The world is small, indeed.
The exhibition is now apparently going on to Spain, France and Italy. But I do not know anything specific up to this moment.
And… yes: I did in fact choose these two pictures in this article on purpose!
You might have wondered why I keep talking about the possibility of buying books on my site and then, at the same time, I fail to provide the necessary prices to activate the shop. It is all there, isn’t it? Yes. And no.
It has two reasons. No. It has THREE reasons. First of all the prices for these books on demand are extremely high. I paid over 100 EUR to get one of the “Portraying Kenya +” Demo-Books done for me! So when I add the charity-part it will not get cheaper and, in fact, I am hating the charity-part being the smallest part. But I cannot really help it at the present time.
Hence I decided to compress the books: I will take some pages out and rearrange the rest to make all of it more intensive and affordable. Some of the books originally were made as fotoalbums for me, to test the prints, so I put more images in than I would have done for a book I would want to give away. A little compression will not harm, on the contrary. Apart from this I want to add some more black-and-white images. Probably in separate books, though.
Now here comes the third reason: I ran out of time in 2007. So despite of Christmas being around the corner and people asking me to finally come up with the book-prices … It will have to ask you to give me some more time for this task. I am terribly sorry about this! It is not that I have not done my homework in projectmanagement, but some things came up that I did not forsee. Good things. Chances. So I slipped some new (and pressing) projects in and I hope you will forgive me for the book-delay once you see the results.
And if I think about it, I might in fact have forgotten the most important part of a good projectmanagement: to leave room for the unforseen. Chances usually do not make appointments, and they are so terribly reluctant to return once you let them go.
