from Facebook;
THE FAMILIES OF THE DUMP story was published in the international "Silvergrain Magazine" today (from Germany). I am happy the "Families" story is reaching larger and larger audiences. More exposure will lead to more help for them. Hopefully in this difficult time for the world their lives in the dump are safe and happy as they can be.
Thank you Charys and"Silvergrain Classics" for telling THE FAMILIES OF THE DUMP story and showing the photographs.
Today is also my mothers 85th birthday. I am happy that both the publishing of the magazines most recent issue and moms birthday happened on the same day. A good omen and good memory! The "Family" photographs would never have happened without the love and support of my beautiful mother. HAPPY 85th MOM!!
Note* Thank you David Salinas for a picture of the magazine cover. David's wonderful work is also featured in this issue.
Note** Damn, am 0-4 on covers for mags now. In the last 3 months or so the photo work (Families and Under the Freeway) has been shown in 2 online mags (Silvergrain Classics) and 2 real paper hard copy mags (Silivergrain Classics and Analog Forever Magazine) and the work got NO COVERS!! I need to work harder at making better photographs.
