Works of Woodinville photographer to go on display in Lt. Governor’s office – (Or, My Brother Got a Gig!)

Several prints of Woodinville photographer Richard Mitchell will be on display in the office of Lt. Gov. Brad Owen Feb. 1 through April in Room 220 of the Legislative Building (State Capitol).

The display will feature landscapes, nature, and macro photography that capture scenery of the Pacific Northwest. Working in both film and digital media, many of Mitchell’s prints are created by “stitching together” a large number of individual images, resulting in finely detailed prints. Other images capture fleeting moments of time not easily seen without the aid of photography.

See the official announcement the Washington State Lt. Governor’s web site. – Congratulations, Richard!

I’d like to send a thank you to Charles Cramer (a.k.a. “Charlie”) for sending a copy of his 2006 photographic calendar, featuring wonderfully luminous photograph of a Utah aspen grove on the cover.

G Dan Mitchell is a California photographer and visual opportunist. His book, “California’s Fall Color: A Photographer’s Guide to Autumn in the Sierra” (Heyday Books) is available directly from him.

An article and radio program today on NPR:

Sometimes, a journey of five years begins with a single hour. At least, that’s what happened to Stephen Wilkes. One assignment — to photograph the side of Ellis Island that no one sees — turned into an obsession, and now a book.

Ellis Island: Ghosts of Freedom documents the weather-beaten remnants of the immigration hub’s abandoned hospital buildings, where people who steamed past the Statue of Liberty on crowded ships were sometimes held back if they had an infectious disease or obvious disorder.
