You have to love his sense of humor. I know I do.

Youtube videos about Ralph Gibson

Here’s a short video of Ralph Gibson.

Here’s another. This is rather nice.

Don’t forget to check out his www.ralphgibson.com site.

And while you’re there, drop by the boutique and check out his signature Leica MP. Buy an extra for me if you found this post useful. Wow, what a beautiful camera.

Photography Site of the Day – arnoldnewmanarchive.com

The Arnold Newman Archive has the expected, classic Newman photographs such as the Picasso, Stravinsky and Oppenheimer, but it also has some wonderful pictures of the man at work. That’s what I like to see – his interactions, the full environment, his lights. It even has a section showing the planning of some of his photographs with drawn layouts and plans for the lights needed for the shoot. There is also a section of stories about him including two entries by Greg Heisler. Great resource for Newman fans like me.
