New Book: Richard Edington: Great Lakes Lighthouses
Last night I had a delightful evening at the Wooster Camera Club giving a presentation, I was invited by Richard Edington, the club’s Vice President. Frankly, these club events just keep getting better and better for me – great people, engaging disscusion, and meaningful networking.
My topic for the evening was “Learn To Be Still”, a presentation meant to motivate people to plan their work for improved, distinctive results. I followed by a video show of my work from the Pacific Northwest created earlier this year.
Before the meeting, Richard privately mentioned that he would be announcing his first ever book, “The Photographers’ Guide to Great Lakes Lighthouses”. This was a source of great accomplishment for him as well as a publication of immediate interest to me. I have a “thing” for lighthouses. That became obvious by my presentation and show to follow. I find them compelling subjects.
If you feel the same way, I urge you to check out Richard’s new book. It is richly illustrated with truly fine photography covering 27 lighthouses of the central Great Lakes. As if that weren’t enough, this book is a photographer’s compendium listing
- Distinguishing Features
- Best time of day
- Suggested Compositions
- Sunrise Sunset possibilities
- Other pertiant info
- Directions including GPS coordinates
Folks, this is a amazing compilation. I immediately snapped up a copy. Guess what I’ll be exploring this Winter? Gas up the old Pilot.

Yesterday, I purchased William Neill’s new eBook that he is self-publishing and self-marketing. William is a renowned California-based professional doing interpretive landscape work. Everything he does seems to resonate to the emotive side of art. See what I mean – check out his blog: http://web.me.com/wgneill/wnblog/PhotoBlog/PhotoBlog.html
Also yesterday, I received a newsletter notice from an acquaintance, Raymond Klass. He has been having a wonderful boost to his career as a professional nature photographer with a very refined newsletter and a 3-month sojourn gathering images around the United States and Canada. There is much to learn and admire from this NY based gentleman. Look for him in years to come to be among the most revered. I have known Raymond for about 2 years and see the true development of style. Start with a visit to his newsletter: http://www.klassphoto.com/newsletter.php
