COMING OF AGE IN AMERICA

Beautiful black and white images of the youth of America by Joseph Szabo. 

“Szabo’s camera is sharp, incisive, and young, matching his subjects. One can use many adjectives: revealing, tender, raucous, sexy, showy… in Szabo’s hands, the camera is magically there, the light is always available, the moment is perceived, seen, and caught.” - Cornell Capa (Time Lightbox)

RECIPE: MEDITERRANEAN PIZZA

I made this pizza after having leftover filling for the spinach pastries I prepared for my November catering job. It's become a favorite in our house, so I thought I'd share it here.

It is DELICIOUS ! If you try it out - let me know. Download recipe.

PHOTOGRAPHER: EVE ARNOLD (1912-2012)

  

"If a photographer cares about the people before the lens and is compassionate, much is given. It is the photographer, not the camera, that is the instrument.”— Eve Arnold (1912-2012)

I came across these images on Time.com the other day. What an incredible woman and remarkable talent. Her images are timeless. “I look for a sense of reality with everything I did,” she once said. “I didn’t work in a studio, I didn’t light anything. I found a way of working which pleased me because I didn’t have to frighten people with heavy equipment, it was that little black box and me.”

I found an old 210 Polaroid Land Camera while thrifting a month ago with 6 Polaroid film exposures ! It's like finding two treasures in one. I've been thinking a lot about what I want to capture on those black and white pieces of film. Eve's work and words are inspiring.
