Hurrell Hollywood, Book of Large Prints Hurrell Hollywood, Book of Large Prints

I feel the best way to look at Hurrell Portraits and imagery is in large format image and that’s usually in a gallery or showing of his work.  Unfortunately, showings of his work in a gallery don’t come around that often anymore. The other way is to have a book of images in large format, which there are only 3 to my knowledge in large format. Book... [Read more of this review]

The Dead Girl – Brittany Murphy

When I was watching “The Dead Girl” I never really thought about a foreshadowing of Brittany Murphy’s recent death. How ironic, but sad, of her passing. She will be sorely missed. I really liked her in Sn City, and many other films. She was somewhat unknown to many people but she a huge actress. Go to IMDB and see soem of her credits,... [Read more of this review]

In fact I use several very old lights that were probably used on a Hollywood lot... [Read more of this review]

It’s a great little... [Read more of this review]
