Last year, Life Pixel invited me to share my work via the Infrared Photography Gallery on the Life Pixel website. It was an honor to be among some of the very best infrared photographers who are also sharing their images via this gallery. I have used LP since my first exposure to the digital infrared world, and they are both helpful via customer service, and meticulus in their conversions. Please take a peek at the many talented photographers LP represents via this […]
Sherri Mabe, The Photo Seen Podcast Such an incredible opportunity to speak with Kat. In these situations, I am often nervous, think too much and am struggling over words. Kat made me so very comfortable, and she is a delightful human being who has created an informative service, via her podcasts, for the “invisible light world” of photography. Please check out the other photographers interviewed during her two seasons. There is some profound talent in the infrared photographic medium, […]
Thinking back to my Seuss days with young children, it occurs to me that Joshua Trees have a strong resemblance to the Truffula Trees in the Dr Seuss book, “The Lorax!” “I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees. I speak for the trees for the trees have no tongues.” ― Dr. Seuss, The Lorax I visited Joshua Tree National Park this past March. My first encounter with these strange, iconic trees came during a drive across the Mojave […]
“There’s a place in East Texas where time stops. Off the shores of Uncertain, where the Big Cypress Bayou flows into Caddo Lake and the water is lined by moss-draped bald cypress trees, modernity has no place. The lake’s surface is dotted with lily pads and coated with duckweed. All around, brilliant water hyacinth blossoms. Along the shoreline a dense forest of hickory, ash, oak, pine and sweet gum trees grows. Within the water and surrounding woods a […]
“Children are not like us. They are beings apart: impenetrable, unapproachable. They inhabit not our world but a world we have lost and can never recover. We do not remember childhood — we imagine it. We search for it, in vain, through layers of obscuring dust, and recover some bedraggled shreds of what we think it was. And all the while the inhabitants of this world are among us, like aborigines, like Minoans, people from elsewhere safe in their own […]
In September I did an interview on infrared photography with Cynthia Haynes, the editor of David duChemin’s Craft and Vision Magazine….I’m so honored. “Infrared photography adores the austere ruggedness of western scenes,” says Sherri Mabe. “The West is my muse.” Never more at home than when she’s wandering the vast Colorado prairie that lies beyond her front door, Mabe creates dreamlike photographs using an infrared (IR) camera, which sees and records light that is beyond the visible spectrum. She finds […]
Kolari Vision recently published this feature on my infrared work! As a girl I would linger hours in a fantasy world of faraway galaxies, cloud gazing, enchanted forests, and so on. Growing a bit older I immersed myself in the worlds of books and music, keeping company with words and rhythms. Then at some point in my teens I came upon my father’s old 1960’s Kodak Instamatic camera (I still have it, teeny negatives), and would drive into the […]
Colorado Farms“This land pulses with life. It breathes in me; it breathes around me; it breathes in spite of me. When I walk on this land, I am walking on the heartbeat of the past and the future. And that’s only one of the reasons I am a farmer.”—Brenda Sutton Rose The images of farms in this portfolio are part of an ongoing series I’m creating here in Colorado—a return to place, memory, and heritage. For the past five months, […]
