beau 1664876222 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Hey folks, Hope you are all well. Sorry I've been MIA in recent months; I'm still taking lots of photos but not as active on the internet for whatever reason. Anyhow, if anyone's interested, my photography is featured in "Lodown" magazine this month. They took some liberties with the layout and cropping and so forth, but they gave me six full pages, and the whole thing required about ten minutes of work by me, so I'm not complaining. Lodown is actually an excellent mag. Apparently they had done a feature on another photonet denizen, Ed Leveckis (many of you will remember him as "Edmo") and I guess Ed turned them on to me, which was very cool of him, because I never bother to promote my work. Incidentally, they tell me Ed has become quite the celebrity since then, traveling around Europe and winning awards and stuff. Anyway, check it out if you have any interest. Thanks -Beau.

vivek iyer Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Congrats, Beau! <p> <i>Incidentally, they tell me Ed has become quite the celebrity since then, ..</i> <p> He is destined for great heights regardless of any promotions from anywhere (sure it doesn't hurt)! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_elder1 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Congratulations Beau! Is Lowdown magazine an exclusively photography magazine? What is the exact title of the Magazine? Where is it published and or sold? thanks, JE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clive1 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Good for you Beau! I like your stuff a lot, especially the dugong (or manatee...). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bds1 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Congratulations Beau! is it online? you don't know if I can get it in the UK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beau 1664876222 Posted June 5, 2007 Author Share Posted June 5, 2007 Hi everyone, <p>Lodown is kind of an international art-music-fashion-entertainment type of thing, published out of Berlin but in English. There are usually two or three photographers covered in a given issue; this month's issue also features Chris Jordan (whose work really like).<p> It seems to be available mostly in hipster-type places, for example <a href="http://www.turntablelab.com/books_design/">here</a>. I know you can get it in several stores around Manhattan and Brooklyn but maybe their website has info on where it can be found where you are.<p> The Lodown website is <a href="http://www.lodownmagazine.com/index.php">here</a>, but I should mention that the site seems to be a few issues behind the print edition and doesn't appear to mention me (yet). You can order the magazine from the site; I'm in issue #56 and Edmo is in #51. <p>Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark.brennan Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Hi Beau - Congrats. I've always liked your work, so I'm happy to see you getting the recognition you deserve. Your B&W work is an inspiration to me. I live in Brooklyn and am in Manhattan often, so please do let me know where I could find the magazine, if possible. I'd definitely like to pick up a copy. All best. Keep shooting! Regards,-Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ray . Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Cool Beau, look forward to seeing it. Still got the Hassy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael s. Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Good news on this, Beau. Congratulations ! <p> Lodown seems not to be the easiest site for me to find my way around, but I was aware of Ed's photos there and saw <a href=http://www.lodownmagazine.com/index.php?page=13&modaction=showItem&id=348>this reference</a> as well.<p> Question for you: where are you putting up your newer photos ?

beau 1664876222 Posted June 6, 2007 Author Share Posted June 6, 2007 Many thanks for the congrats, people. It's good to see that some of the old gang is still around. Andy, I'm told the response to my feature has been very good so far, and I've struck up a bit of a relationship with the editor in chief, who seems to be a big fan of urban street photography. I'm definitely going to point him to my friends' work... Michael, I'm afraid I've been a little lame about getting my photos on the Internet at all lately, even though I'm shooting a fair amount. This last winter, for whatever reason (impending midlife crisis?), I devoted a lot of time to playing ice hockey (I know, I know), and my league's games were always late at night when I otherwise would be developing film and printing. With the season over I've been trying to catch up on this huge pile of exposed film, although I've got a backlog of other projects going on too (some commissioned graphic design projects, etc.). My hope is to drop a big pile of new images into my website at some point this summer. Ray, yes, still got the Hassy, though I don't carry it around much. I'm going to be in Europe later this month and intend to bring it along for some tripod-type stuff. I'm still quite happy with the Leica, and really liking film more than ever (other than the time required for processing it - I have to hire an assistant!). Take care everyone, and drop a line when in NYC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprouty Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Good for you Beau, I'll be looking for a copy around town or the next trip down to NYC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
