Dear lovely peepers and readers. Thank You all for your kind and heartwarming messages. We have spent a beautiful two months in my birth country and caught up with my big and wonderful family and dear friends. I have shot about 50 rolls of film which are waiting for me to get developed … and I did few inspiring digital sessions with people in Czech Republic.

For those who emailed me with inquiries,

I have put the Actions Site back online with a new cart that I included here on the blog. I will still email you with personal replies after the 1.9.2010, as I am attending to a national photography workshop and will have limited time online.

But meantime if you have found your way here and would like to purchase any of the products, feel free.

and here is one lovely image from a session I did in the street I grew up ….

I am making these affordable as it is probably last digital product for some time as my main interest is turning towards the traditional darkroom.

I am contemplating taking a undefined holiday from digital work wanting to spend more time in the real darkroom rather than at the computer and internet.

Middle Gray book – lucky receiver :)

sonia — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 23:32:25 +0000

I got amazed how very little people responded to this wonderful opportunity to learn something so wonderful as is their Middle Gray, which if they visited John Strazza’s Middle Gray website, would show them that Middle Gray is not only about Black and White imagery .. that it is about both color and black and white images, about light – about photography … or perhaps because it does not involve the instance as do Lightroom Presets or PS Actions or the chance to explore textures that can give our images something we feel but for some reason are not able to capture there in the moment .. I am not sure what it was that won over and let people passed by .. but it will not spoil the wonderful moment of announcing the person who will receive a hard copy of the book ..

Thank You Mary for your comment ..one does not need to be professional photographer to share the photography Heart

please email me your postal address so I can organize delivery of now your book
