Mr. Parks was a great talent -- how wonderful that you had the opportunity to meet him. I've been fortunate to see exhibits of his work twice -- once a few years ago at the Delaware Art Museum, and last November at the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, D.C.John A Benignohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03804245890610422667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720493727566410526.post-13227834428182656042012-09-05T18:12:41.903-04:002012-09-05T18:12:41.903-04:00I love Gordon Parks work.

He gave a talk and exhibited new work and told wonderful stories about his life and struggles as a pioneering African American photographer in the mid 20th century. He was low-key and gracious and still a creative force to be reckoned with.Ikthoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14671195558634481178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720493727566410526.post-79028940451403956262012-09-02T09:35:14.378-04:002012-09-02T09:35:14.378-04:00Many thanks for visiting my blog, Sarah.

I completely understand this in every sense of the statement. I am surrounded by abandoned farm houses and rotting structures of what were formerly family homes built in the 1800's. The above images: 'Window Lace', 'Telephone Pole Shadow', and 'Patriotic' stand out to me within this series.

Hope you'll stop by often.<br /><br />I'm not quite sure how I set up the comment box -- it was a while ago. But if memory serves, go to your Dashboard and click on the Settings tab. When that opens click on the Comments tab. A menu will open and you make selections according to how you want to set up your comments box. Hope this works, and the best of luck to you with your new blog.John A Benignohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03804245890610422667noreply@blogger.com
