My photographer/fine artist friend Matthew G. Beall has created a marvelous new web publication: Capturing Exposures http://www.capturingexposures.com/ Capturing Exposures features wonderful photographers and insightful information about photography.
"Capturing
Exposures’ mission is very simple: to showcase quality photographs by
photographers who make them. Capturing Exposures subscribes to the idea
of quality and consistency over quantity."
Enjoy!

Art, Antiques and Luxury Design Blog
I was given a wonderful opportunity by Elliot Lee to contribute an article about photography to the marvelous Art, Antiques and Luxury Design Blog. AAD articles are most informative and a very enjoyable read. The contributors to the Blog are knowledgeable and their essays foster thought and appreciation for the arts. Here is a link to my article: http://art-antiques-design.com/2013/07/12/the-fine-art-of-photography-in-the-1800s-by-ellen-fisch/

Worship
For the past year I have been working on a photography essay about religion as presented through photography. Since 1975 I have been spending time in the small New Hampshire town of Bethlemhem. For many of the residents of Bethlehem, integral to the their New England way of life has always been Worship. There are a number of Houses of Worship in Bethlehem. I am most familiar with the Bethlehem Hebrew Congregation and the Durrell United Methodist Church, having attended events and services at both.
As an architectural photographer, my orientation to communicating my subject through my images is architecture. Through this lens I perceived how the Durrell Church and the BHC offer their congregants a place to practice religion and the objects contained within each place that are symbolically profound to religion.
It was a serious undertaking for me. And a labor of love and respect for two Houses of Worship that I hold dear. I am honored to be able to exhibit my Worship photographs in August.
