Alaska exhibition in Stuttgart opens tomorrow
Just a quick last minute reminder that my exhibition “Alaska – The Last Frontier” in the James-F.-Byrne-Institut, Charlottenplatz 17 in Stuttgart will open tomorrow at 7 p.m. I am quite excited to see my images as large format prints and nicely framed on display again – the cellar’s just not a good place for them. I am also surprised to see that most of my top picks of 2009 are still among my favorites, although so far I took out three of my old images and will probably take out two more that I’m not quite happy with anymore. I will also add five new images. You can preview these below.
The decision about which ones to add was a tough one once again, I could easily have added another twenty – for one there are no porcupines among the images I have on display. As a small consolation to myself and maybe some of you, I will show most of the close contestants in the slide show for my opening talk tomorrow evening. I hope to see some of you in Stuttgart, but even if you miss the vernissage tomorrow, the images will be on display until September 21. This means that at least the Germans should have a chance to look at them.
PS: Looking through my images and additions again I have to say, I do love my bears.
- Bears Fishing in the McNeil River. I like the combination of the sharp bears and the blurred water.
- Footprint of a Coastal Brown Bear in Katmai National Park
- A muskox bull on the North Slope along the Dalton Highway, Alaska.
- American red squirrel, Kenai Peninsula, Alaska.
- A Brown Bear Sow with three cubs wanders over the mud flats of the McNeil inlet after sunset.
