Jane Baillie Welsh Carlyle - “Blessed be the
inventor of photography! It has given more positive pleasure to
poor suffering humanity than anything else that has 'cast up' in
my time — this art by which even the 'poor' can possess
themselves of tolerable of their absent dear
ones.”
These pictures were all made in the
Memphis Zoo. I've been to many zoo's in the past but never
really spent much time
making pictures. Family came to visit one summer, I took my camera- I
was hooked. Perhaps my favorite picture is that of the Silverback
Gorilla pictured below. The little Bonobo Monkey (8-001) was used by a
publishing company as a center spread for a
children's science school
book.
