Yay! Another book through Kickstarter has arrived today. This time it’s Gathering Calm – Photographs:1994-2004 by Bill Schwab. This and the accompanying print were rewards for backing the Photostock workshop facility.
Bill is a friend and a phenomenal photographer, and the organizer of Photostock, an annual photography festival in the north woods of Michigan. When Photostock started it was just a dozen folks camping on Bill’s property. To support the activities of Photostock, Bill built a workshop facility with classroom and wet darkroom space. Today it’s grown to perhaps 100 people gathering at The Birchwood Inn in Harbor Springs, Michigan, for a three day weekend in June.
