St. Albert Gazette Story, Open Photo 2015

The coming opening night (this Friday) for the Alberta Photo Open 2015, is featured in the St. Albert Gazette. The picture shown in the article is by St. Albert photographer Akemi Matsubuchi, I thought it might be a photo done up by a former acquaintance I know here in town (he also shoots black and white landscapes) but turns out I was wrong. Too many people doing that b/w landscape thingy, too many photogs with similar styles shooting the same stuff. It can blend and be a bit confusing, things tend to blur.

Here is the article:

Note" It is kind of cool having a fake name that ends in a "Y". your almost always the last one mentioned and your quite often the "and" person, as in this linked story.

Other featured artists include David Aaron, Debra Bachman, Edna Cabalo, Jeff Cruz, Aaron Falkenberg, Denis Gadbois, Zbigniew Gortel, Kiefer Hagen, John Hoyt, Philip Kanwischer, Jennifer Mccoy, Robert Pohl, Ryan Puchalski, Heiko Ryll, Marta Timmer, Mark Vitaris, Sandy Weatherall, and Gerry Yaum.

Anyway the featured photograph by Akeimi Matsubuchi is nicely done,. You get a real feel for the ravages and beauty of Canadian winters.
