The Virgin of Guadalupe is a cultural icon with deep roots in Mexican and Chicano communities across the United States and Mexico, among other places. Artists in New Mexico often reference Guadalupe in their work—including Chicana artist Delilah Montoya. A mixed-media piece, “La Guadalupana,” by Montoya features a large photograph of the Virgin of Guadalupe as tattooed on the back of an incarcerated man. It is one of the many works of art on display at New Mexico Museum of Art's Vladem Contemporary as a part of their “identity” theme in Off-Center. Katie Doyle, assistant curator at the New Mexico Museum of Art, says Montoya's work fits in with Vladem's exhibition because it tells one of many essential stories about the cultural and historical issues that have continued to affect people in New Mexico. Mentioned in this Episode: Gloria Anzaldúa on la Virgen de Guadalupe Off-Center: New Mexico Art, 1970-2000 at New Mexico Museum of Art's Vladem Contemporary La Guadalupana by Delilah Montoya Chicano Awareness Center in Omaha, Nebraska Civil Rights Movement in Omaha, Nebraska National Geographic article about DNA and human ancestry *** We'd love to hear from you!

The Grim Reaper: Funeral and Mourning Customs in the 19th Century Recorded live on 3/20/2025 5:30pm in Ballroom E Our spectacular hosts are Madame Perry, Tracy Chan, and Beverly Stuart. Our panel will take a deep dive into all the things you ever wanted to know about death in Victorian times but were afraid to ask! Death was considered an ordinary part of life back in the day. Most people died at home and were buried fairly quickly and close by. Preserving the body became popular during the Civil War with the development of embalming. Mourning customs were very specific – what you could wear, and for how long, and for whom (parents, spouses, children all had different mourning periods). Photographing the departed was also commonly done. And then there were the fake mediums, charlatans who proclaimed they could summon the dead by staging seances (and ripping off grieving people). please check out these awesome folks online: Madame Perry, and Madame Perry's Salon at: https://www.facebook.com/madameperryssalon madameperry@lonewolfcomm.net madameperry@lonewolfcomm.net https://x.com/madameperry Tracy Chan, an awesome Blogger, Cosplayer and photographer at https://www.facebook.com/chant808 https://www.nightfoxphoto.com/ https://x.com/chant808 Beverly Stuart. an amazing Cosplayer, Crafter and Photographer https://www.flickr.com/photos/branabev/ https://www.facebook.com/beverly.stuart.9 Thank you Wild Wild West Con Guests, Staff, Volunteers and Panelists for an amazing Con and weekend full of new and old friends and Con family!

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Jarob Ortiz, from Arlington, Virginia. Jarob started fly fishing in 3rd grade, after being drawn to the delicate cast and presentation portrayed in the popular book and movie, A River Runs Through It. He learned to cast from his uncle from Montana, and when he signed up for the Air Force out of high school, Eielson Air Force Base in Alaska was at the top of his list. When he wasn't working in the A-10 Warthog's electronic warfare shop, he was spending all his free time traveling to fishing destinations throughout Alaska. After separating from the Air Force, Jarob used his G.I. Bill to pay for photography equipment and education, to start his second career. Jarob spent several years being a commercial photographer and fly fishing on the side, before making a last ditch attempt to keep his passion for photography alive, applying for a dream job, shooting our National Parks in the style and technique of famous photographer Ansel Adams. Today, Jarob is THE large format photographer for the national park service, tasked to capture the historic architecture and engineering projects throughout our country. We discuss how becoming engrossed in the systems we commit to, whether they be fly fishing or photography, create a balance in our lives, and Jarod shares stories and tips from some of his most memorable fly fishing adventures in our National Parks.Learn More:Instagram: @heritagedocumentationnpsVisit WadeOutThere.com/art for 10% off your first original painting or limited edition print from show host and artist Jason Shemchuk Visit TacticalFlyFisher.com and use Promo Code: wade15 at checkout for 15% off you next tactical gear purchase.Newsletter Sign-Up .

That camera rekindled his interest. But he said that he still had a fear of taking photographs of people. And when he went to a local camera club recently, he found that was what they were afraid of too. He found a course by Annabel Williams and did a one-day course with her. After that, he found out he had some clients, got a grant, and signed up for Annabel's course for a year. Andrew says his pictures were images which people were a part of, rather than a photo of them. He loved Robert Dawson's work . And Willy Ronis. He likes the way they present people in a big scene.Sam asks about repeat clients as he seems to have lots ofthem. He talks about a client where he keeps going back and doing portraits as the family grows. He went to the house recently and it was full of his pictures. Andrew says the main thing he likes is photographing people, for personal or commercial use. Sam brings up that Andrew has several websites with different brands and asks how he manages this. Andrew says that he is found online regularly. He says this is because he provides relevant content to the relevant audience. He says that his specific websites only have relevant photos. He then also has landing pages for all of the relevant local towns. Andrew is also blogging a lot on all of his websites. Andrew's other routes to market are networking. He says that this is a slow burn, but he gets work because he gets customers who have a connection who know, like and trust Andrew. He also uses artisan makers as a route to market. Hesays customers at artisan makers markets have money to invest in things they like, which could include photography.

Today we have our photographer friend on about shooting pictures of Bigfoot or answering the ultimate question…is Bigfoot blurry?
Slime molds (Myxomycetes) are beautiful, weird, and amazing organisms. Often mistaken for fungi, they are actually single celled, yet they grow and efficiently move in search of food, can start and stop their life cycle based on environmental conditions, and even change colors several times during their brief life cycle. They can be beautifully colored, frequently iridescent, and can be ornately shaped. And better still, they can be found in much of the world - maybe even in your yard.My guest today, Alison Pollack, is a renowned slime mold photographer and unabashed enthusiast of slime molds and their habitats. If you follow nature photographers on Instagram, perhaps you count yourself as one of her nearly 60,000 followers.Today, Alison tells us what exactly a slime mold is - and no, it is not a mold or fungi. She tells us about their fascinating lifecycle, where they grow, and how to find them. Alison then tells us about her astonishing macro photography of slime molds - both in the field and in her home studio. She walks through her process, technique, and equipment she uses to create her acclaimed photos. If you do nothing else, follow her on Instagram @marin_mushrooms, or check the photos below to get a hint of the beauty of the slime molds, and Alison's artistic skill in capturing them.You can also find Alison on Facebook at AlisonKPollack, and on iNaturalist at alison_pollack.FULL SHOW NOTESLinks To Topics DiscussedFrom Macro to Micro: The Art of Fungi Photography with Alison PollackDamon Tighe - was on Episode 36 talking FungiNikon Small World Master of MicroscopySlime Mold Identification and Appreciation - Facebook GroupAll the Rain Promises and More by David AroraLaowa ultra macro lens - there are models for each major camera manufacturer.Les MyxomycètesMyxomycetes - A Handbook of Slime Molds by Steven StephensonNOVA Slime Mold episodeOlympus Tough TG-6 - this seems to be the most recommended pocket camera by naturalists of many typesRaynox DCR-250Where the Slime Mould Creeps by Sarah LloydSupport Us On Patreon!Buy our Merch!Music: Spellbound by Brian Holtz MusicLicense (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseArtist site: https://brianholtzmusic.com Discover the Jumpstart Nature Podcast - entertaining and immersive, it's the nature fix we all need.Check past Nature's Archive episodes for amazing guests like Doug Tallamy, Elaine Ingham, and Rae Wynn-Grant, covering topics from bird migration to fungi to frogs and bats!
HT2117 - Two Types of Photographing I may be only speaking for myself here, but I've found that I have two completely different type of sessions when I am out photographing. Most typically, I'm definitely out photographing and I find a place where I photograph purposively, extensively, intensely for a few hours or even a few days. There are other occasions, however, when I'm not really looking for photographs, but they appear without me searching for them. These two styles of photographing require different equipment that can equally produce useful images.

You can see his work at mayolopezgutierrez.com Karen Collins was selected as 2024 Sonoma County's Woman of the year. But that's just her latest accolade. She's been locally engaged in Sonoma since she arrived here, helping lead the charge to establish the Sonoma Overlook Trail, while inspiring others to get outside their comfort zone with global travels. In this episode we talk to her about her journey in Sonoma and beyond.

HT2054 - The Wet Landscape For years I've said that bad weather makes for great photography. An example of that is how the landscape intensifies in color and sheen after a rain. Photographing in the rain might be uncomfortable and cumbersome for us humans, but no one ever said that artmaking was supposed to be easy.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan sits down with Garrett Jones, Worn & Wound's in-house photographer. Garrett is a relatively new member of the team, joining full time the very week of this year's San Francisco Windup Watch Fair. But he had contributed a number of gear and EDC focused pieces before that, so he's likely not completely unfamiliar to regular readers. In this conversation, Garrett talks about how he got into watches through the EDC world and his longtime interest in photography. Zach and Garrett also have an in depth discussion diving into Garrett's recent experience with Citizen in the Canadian Rockies, which he wrote about recently in a fantastic “Out of Office” feature.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.
