hands inspiration

Alfred Stieglitz. “Georgia O'Keeffe - Hands; &, Hands and Thimble” palladium prints, 1919, at MOMA  ❤️ “Photographer and gallerist Alfred Stieglitz photographed the artist Georgia O’Keeffe extensively over the course of their long relationship. Though he considered his closely framed pictures of her face and isolated parts of her body—in this case, her hands—as stand-ins for her whole person, the totality of images he took of her over time offer a more comprehensive portrait of O’Keeffe.”

topo chico love

sometimes I setup a little work station in airports (grabbing the only @topochicousa there) & a stranger asks me what I’ve been doing & smiling about & it’s because I’m editing photos of some of my favorite people to hopefully brighten their recent low days, because grateful for my friend family & always photography forever 🍏💙
