Reflect, Rethink, Refocus
In November 2016, a few months after the extraordinary Photography Master Retreat, organized and hosted by photographer Martine Fougeron at her family's home in Esparon, in the South of France, in July 2015, we published, as a group, "Field Notes" documenting our week together there. Here we are gathering for a group portrait.

Hilary Mantel, early novels, my photos!
Oh, and did I mention . . . my photographs were selected for the covers of two of Hilary Mantel's early novels, "Every Day is Mother's Day" and "Vacant Possession," when they were re-issued in paperback, in 2010, by Picador, following the announcement of her Man Booker Prize award for "Wolf Hall." And now, at last, "Wolf Hall, Parts One & Two," on Broadway starring Mark Rylance and the RSC, and also, "Wolf Hall" starts tomorrow night on Masterpiece PBS . . . wonderful Hilary!
