Well, actually I <em>have<\/em> neglected it. My attention and efforts have been focused on my foodblog: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.2gourmaniacs.com\/fine-food-food-photography\/spring-asparagus-stone-crab-claws-lycheekumquat-vinaigrette\/\">www.2gourmaniacs.com<\/a>, and on two television shows that I am doing on local public TV. The first show, <strong><em>Moment2Moment: 35 Years Behind the Ground Glass, <\/em><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\">is a series of 8 shows, each 30 minutes long where I talk about various photographic portfolios and collections that I have produced over my career as a photographer. I \u00a0will also<strong> <\/strong>have guests photographers and gallery owners who will talk about their work as well. I&#8217;ve taped two shows already, and I \u00a0think I can say without fear of contradiction that to sit in front of TV cameras for 30 minutes without commercial breaks, and articulate\u00a0intelligently even about a topic on which you are an expert is a daunting enterprise. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\">Another big time commitment is selecting my photographic images (50-60 per show and they have to be already digitally scanned, of course), formatting them, digitally sizing them and sequentially putting them in a specific software program in my Mac laptop so it can be later hardwired to an Avid system at the TV studio: that process (or workflow as it&#8217;s now called) has given me the howling fantods (to quote D.F. Wallace) more than once. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\">And&#8230;and&#8230;Rosaria and I start taping our cooking show,<\/span><em> 2Gourmaniacs, Crazy 4 Food<\/em><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\">, the last week of this month. Yipes. And, oh did I mention that I&#8217;m querying literary agents for a cookbook entitled <\/span><em>The Hamptons&#8217; Home Cookbook. <span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-style: normal;\">Right now, there just doesn&#8217;t seem to be enough hours in the day.<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-style: normal;\">So, I&#8217;ll give you three images: 2 color images exposed on film, and a food capture from two days ago. The dog was photographed in Belize twenty years ago, and &#8220;Drinks&#8221; was photographed ten years ago on Mayreau Island, in the Grenadines. The food image was captured here in Southampton a couple days ago for a blog post about asparagus and stone crab claws&#8230;.needless to say, they were delicious after the shoot.<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/dog1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-569\" title=\"dog\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/dog1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"396\" height=\"412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/dog1.jpg 495w, https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/dog1-288x300.jpg 288w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 396px) 100vw, 396px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/drinks1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-570\" title=\"drinks\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/drinks1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"398\" height=\"411\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/drinks1.jpg 498w, https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/drinks1-290x300.jpg 290w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 398px) 100vw, 398px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-style: normal;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/stone-crab_asparagus.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-567\" title=\"stone crab_asparagus\" src=\"http:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/stone-crab_asparagus-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"819\" height=\"545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/stone-crab_asparagus-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/stone-crab_asparagus-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/stone-crab_asparagus.jpg 1277w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-style: normal;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"facebook\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/?p=563\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-facebook-plugin\/facebook_share_icon.gif\" alt=\"Share on Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=https:\/\/www.mybigphatphotographs.com\/?p=563\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share on Facebook\">Share on Facebook<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I feel as though I have woefully neglected my photography blog over the past month.
