Robert Capa’s Negatives Found!

Robert Capa is one of the main reasons I got in to photojournalistic photography. I used to go to Powell’s bookstore and peruse all the photo books. Capa’s work stood out for me (along with Bresson, Doisneau, Brassai). I read with great interest that his long lost negatives are found:

A Morning at Northwest Conservatory of Dance

One of the best places to take dance lessons is Northwest Conservatory of Dance in Hillsboro. I had the pleasure of photographing their dance recital a little while ago, and got some great images. This time it was time to photograph the young dancers at the studio! Check out what we came up with. Parents of the dancers can see the whole set here (password required).

This has nothing to do with weddings or photography right now but I think it will be the future of web browsing, so it is worth looking. I can think of photographer websites utilizing this technology when it becomes available!
