Steve Brickles
Next we have Steve Brickles who decided to stop and photograph these “Brilliant Trees” that he spotted when driving to a meeting in Oxford, England, earlier this year. These images will now be part of a group show at MV Labs in New York opening in March of next year. So you never know, if you see it, take those few minutes to stop and capture the image that stopped you in the first place.

Gordon Watkinson
And then we have Gordon Watkinson, whose initial book project “BAUHAUS TWENTY-21: An Ongoing Legacy” has turned into a much larger endeavor. Not only has the book been published in three languages (so far) there is also now a traveling exhibition, which is currently in Europe, as well as workshops with the photographer. His is a great example of how the seed of an idea can grow and blossom into an entire project –http://fotosynthesis.com/

Constance Jackson
And last but not least, we have Constance Jackson, an emerging photographer I worked with a couple of months ago. I was really struck by the beauty and the humor of her “Little Helper” series.
