A story of a photo essay....

Herman Krieger: "Herman Krieger's photo essay, "The Hamlets of Lane County" is an intimate look at rural life in Oregon. Art Beat visited the Eugene photographer and unexpectedly became the subject of his latest photo essay."

I am a strong believer in the photo essay and one of my clubs, DPS - which mets in the Ridgedale area, has a project each year using the concept. Last year and this year, the club did, and is again, working on a Folio concept (see Lenswork Publishing for more information), and next year we will be exploring the 'book'. It's all about the story, you know, rather than a single image....but, anyway, it's something to think about.
