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.

One of my co-workers asked me about view cameras and their movements. This is a pretty nice video showing the range of movements of the Chamonix 8×10. There is no narration and not all of these movements are available with all cameras, but its a good example.

This youtube video is of W Eugene Smith’s photography.

His photographs are incredibly moving. I first encountered these 30 years ago and I find them as effective today as they were then.
