So what do you do to wrap up a workshop week like this? You don’t! It never ends! We talked creativity. It was an insightful two hours.
Then Jay Maisel, Greg Heisler and I grabbed a bite to eat and went to Timothy Whelan’s book store (Rockport, Maine). And did some damage.
What did we get? Check the photos for our purchases.
Tim is an unsung hero in the photographic community. This monument of a man is nothing short of cherubic. He’s one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. His tiny space is packed with gems – the latest releases, signed first editions, and original prints. You can’t imagine how many of the photographic greats stop into his tiny store.
He’s offline now. (I’m encouraging him to go back online.) so if you want to contact him call 207-236-4795. He can get you almost anything you’re looking for. And there’s no better place to get it.
As I was leaving photographer Norman Mauskopf summed it up, “This is how you wrap up a week. It doesn’t matter how you get here, as long as you get here.”
Check out my recommended reading list to date. Check back for more later.
