Abe's Penny Has Arrived. Volume 2.8. 1/4.

My ten complimentary issues of the fabulous October Issue of Abe's Penny, to which I am the photographer contributor, have arrived! The text accompanying my photographs is by the phenomenally talented Kimberly Faith Waid.

What is Abe's Penny? It's a "micro-magzine." Each issue consists of four postcards that together, tell a story: photograph on front, text inspired by the photo on back, mailed to subscribers doors, one per week. In these days of emails, it's nice to get something through the real mail. In these days of digital photography, flickr and facebook albums, it feels good to hold an image in your hand. In these days of instant gratification, when the idea of waiting for almost anything seems to have gone out of style, it's neat to have to have no access to the next part of the story until one week after you've received the first. For these reasons and more, I'm proud to be a contributor to Abe's Penny.

"Open 7 Days" is the first photograph of the issue's four parts. I'll be posting the other postcards to the blog at about they same time they arrive in mailboxes.
