The station wagon one….yes please.

That one is real nice.

All of these are amazing visual works, but the last one especially has a deeper emotional significance, even if viewed as just an independent image. Meyerowitz’s use of color is incredible.

Noah Waldeck's avatar

I agree Drayson, that's definitely one of his most iconic images for a reason.

Always worth another look. They don’t grow old.

Right?! I feel the same way about Sternfeld, Shore, Misrach, and other classic landscape photographers. If anything, their work seems to get better with age, which you can especially see with Shore's photographs.

What an evocative set. I can practically hear and smell these places.

Noah Waldeck's avatar

Me too, especially that image with the house and moving grass.

All these scenes are amazing, they transport you back in time.

Well put Justin!

Such an incredible set! So many different textures and lighting conditions. The white picket fence with the clouds is especially breathtaking

That one is remarkably composed! It reminds me somewhat of Paloma Dooley's fence image from her project Plain Sight. I find it interesting how photographs from across time can relate to one another. It definitely shows the consistent tradition of landscape photography!

Ice Cream on summer night. Nothing better

That description encapsulates the mood of Cape Light really well!

Paid $25 over a year ago. Sent in y photos and never got a book.

Noah Waldeck's avatar

Hi Madeleine!

As I had said previously, the $25 you paid was the exhibition fee for our Book & Exhibition call for entries that concluded in September. The end result of that call will be a new photobook, but the book does not exist yet. The conclusion of the call just started the next phase of the process, which is selecting which photographs will be included in the book and pair creation (Everyone who submitted will receive a $25 credit towards purchasing it once the book is complete).

There were over 13,000 images submitted to this call, so I'm sure you can appreciate that it is an enormous undertaking just to look through that many images (and pairs). My ultimate goal is always to put together the very best book I possibly can. This takes countless hours of analyzing images and making difficult decisions. This isn’t a process that can be rushed, so please be patient with me as I work on it. I promise I’ll be in touch as soon as I have an update to share.

In the meantime, my associate curators and I are actively looking for opportunities to use submissions for Artist Features. However, please keep in mind that even though we’re on pace to feature over 3000 images this year, that’s only a fraction of the work submitted. So it could realistically take a couple years (or more) to get through everything we want to feature.
