I’m just back from another trip up to Iceland where I led a fantastic group of photographers. It was a really hard working and dedicated crew and they pushed me to a higher level as well. We worked the very last bit of light of every day and it has resulted in work that I feel among my best from this beautiful landscape. This includes “Wave Patterns – Höfn, Iceland”, the print I am offering here for a limited time. It was the last full night of our adventure and proved to be perhaps the most magical. As with all offers I make of these smaller prints, this is an open edition printing and comes unmatted and unframed as shown. With an image size of 4.5 inches square on an 8×10 inch sheet of paper. this hand made, silver gelatin print has a beautiful sepia/selenium split-tone. Signed provenance and suggestions for mounting and framing will be included with your print. As always, your satisfaction is assured. Thanks for having a look! Order Here!

I’m thrilled to have an interview that has been published in one of my favored blogs, Rfotofolio. “Seeing the Beauty” is now available for a visit and I would like to invite you to have a look. They’ve done a really nice job and it gave me a chance to focus on some of my Detroit work from over the years. I’m very proud of the outcome and hope you’ll enjoy. Seeing the Beauty @ Rfotofolio

After being delayed, reprinted and finally shipped to all of those contributing on a certain level to the Photostock Workshop Kickstarter earlier in 2013, Waterside – Great Lakes is now available in the Store! Containing 21 beautifully printed, tritone reproductions, I couldn’t be happier with this little, softcover book. All photographs were made over a 20 year span along the shores of the Great Lakes.

It’s a new year and even thought it’s simply another day, I always go through a bit of angst until I’ve gotten out there and made my first good photograph. Some years, it’s March or April before putting something serious on film, but this year I was determined to get over that hump early. Fortunately the New Year’s snow storm that just passed through these parts gave the inspiration. Nothing like getting out there on a snowy, atmospheric night to burn through some film. I’ve been doing a lot of exploring again as of late and have to admit to being somewhat shocked at the state of my city. Sure, I see it on TV all the time these days as picking our bones seems to be all the rage. But to go through areas explored years ago and find them in such a rapid state of decline is frightening. The Detroit Spirit is alive and well, but our poor city has certainly seen better days. Here’s to hoping it will again.

This has been an incredible year. From the Kickstarter campaign that started early in February, through the building of the Photostock Workshop, and all the way through a fantastic Holiday Season, it has been a year like no other before. It has been a crazy, super charged and highly busy 12 months and I can’t thank you enough for being there through it all. Your support and interest in my work is most appreciated and has meant more to me this year than ever. I want to thank you once again as we look ahead to another year full of possibilities and assure you that there is much more to come. Here’s wishing you and yours a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year! All the Best, Bill Schwab
