Alien Skin Exposure

Recreating all those old darkroom techniques.

I published a book titled "Beautiful Ecstasy" in 2003 (work from the early 80's www.michaelnorthrup.com/beautiful ) and my designer (believe it or not he's one of the best in NYC) ran the gutter down the middle of every page. I've had very mixed reactions from different people. His idea was to make the design simple but bold, make the images as big as possible, play with the symmetry of the book , play with the "book" format/structure, and play with my centralizing the main subject in every image as though the main subject was a target for me to hit in the bullseye. He said this project was as much about "being a book" as it was about the photos. But hey, ... there's a gutter down the middle of all my images. Does this work?

Antarctica

These are some great pictures from Antarctica.



Here are the rest.

Shoot in Italy...

Two weeks ago I shot a wedding in Tuscany, Italy. The day after the wedding I set up a little mini photo-studio where I could shoot photos of people or where they could photograph themselves. Some of the best shots came at about 3am after endless bottles of wine...

More and bigger photos on my blog.

The photos at NikonSmallWorld are unbelievable.

My new hero.

Hurricane Ike

Just got back from 10 days in Texas photographing the effects of Hurricane Ike for the Red Cross.

A recent TV commercial I shot stills for.

Cat Heart

A real one.

State Fair

I've never been a huge fan of the fair. Having 2 boys who are at last at an age to get on rides by themselves changes everything. Actually, it's that... combined with a wristband that enables to get on whatever they desire endlessly for $15.

I clearly know I am far from the first to take this shot of the big swing ride. It still works though...
