Circles

Pelecanus erythrorhynchos

Pelecanus erythrorhynchos took nearly a year to complete. My original plan for the river includes a large format book, in installments, with a dozen-or-so images in each one. At this rate, it will take 12 years to complete the first installment, and 120 years to include the seventy species of fish I hope to catch. I will be 175 years old.

Individual numbered prints of Pelecanus erythrorhynchos are now available in the MPS Store.

This is what was left of the key block after three reduction cuts and four printings.

Back on the river circles keep appearing. Gizzard Shad chase each other around in a shallow sideways wheel. Sometimes a shot from below sends hundreds air borne, like the first drops of an oncoming storm.

  1. I agree, an inspired post, Gaylord. I’m going to use the gizzard shad as my screen saver. It’s true you don’t post a lot but it seems you are living your life perfectly. What else counts?

  2. I’m not sure which image I like best: the airborne circle of Gizzard Shad, or you at 175 years old. An inspired post.
