Last Friday I mentioned one of our most favorite prints, Cranes in the Fire Mist. Well, it’s a great story by Scott Bourne, my partner in the GoingPro Project and one of my very best friends. So, often we all have a vision, an idea and then one day it’s gone. We’ve given up on [...]
There’s been a lot written about things you can do to build your business. I’ve written about it, we’ve written about it on GoingPro and recently I ran across this post on Photofocus by my good buddy, Scott Bourne.

We founded GoingPro together, then PWSPI and he’s been a key part of Summer School starting with the very first program in 2009. At that time he had just 24,000 followers on Twitter. This week he [...]
Last week I wrote a post about shooting Neurochromes as it related to an image of my parents holding hands. Nicole Wolf followed up with a post and the trailer for a 28 minute film about her grandfather, “Smiles” Green. Then last night, while surfing through Photofocus, I ran across an old post from Scott Bourne. [...]
