See how easy this is? :-)

Hope said...

I love your photography, Laurie. Glad to see that you're still blogging. I recently went back to Glimpses and found this blog. I miss the way Glimpses used to be, and the old days of blogging!

Green Guy said...

Just stopping by to say hello! I see you're no longer on Instagram and I have missed your photos. Find me on Instagram to say hello if you dare go back!

Laurie Allee said...

Hi Green Guy! I was happy to get this notification! Yes, I'm pretty anti social media these days and my life is better for it. I'm still checking in on Twitter for art and politics -- but in very limited doses. (Read Deep Work, the End of Absence and The Shallows! They changed my life regarding social media!) I'll peak in at your IG. Hope you and Jan are well!

Hey thanks for the book tweet of your list. There are some really interesting books on there I had never heard of before. I also like your photos a lot. I only knew you from your tweets so this is nice to meet you in a way. :-)

Wow, you have great taste in books. I was going to recommend Howard Zinn’s People’s History if you haven’t already read it.

Hi Rosie!

Thank you so much! It's nice to meet you here, too.

Hi Ted!

Howard Zinn's People's History of the US is one of my favorite books, and a must read! (Chris Harmon's People's History of the World is similarly good, and obviously inspired by Zinn. It covers history from struggling people's POV from the Stone Age to present day. It's also a really good audio narration if you're into audio books.)

I wanted to tell you how much I like your photographs. I didn't realize you were still actively blogging. I used to follow you at your South Pasadena blog, which I liked very much. I am happy to see that you are still making such beautiful art with your camera.

Thank you so much, Anonymous!

Laurie! I saw the news of all your new blogs on Facebook! Good heavens you have been busy! It's so great to see all your recent photos plus all of the writing on your book and analog sites. Good job, girl!

Cool film on street photography. Appreciate your pointing it out and hosting it.

Jessie said...

I just met you today and I not only put your number in my contacts but I checked out all of your work. I love it! Looking forward to connecting this year.

Laurie Allee said...

Hi Anonymous. I'm so glad you liked the film! Check back every month for a new one.

Laurie Allee said...

Hello Jessie! I'm replying here, but I also emailed you. Thanks for taking a look at my photos! I, too, am looking forward to connecting with the kids this year.

Lily Takes Pictures said...

Should I feel bad that I didn't know who Joel Meyerowitz was? I really enjoyed the film and also love discovering another streetphotographer.

Laurie Allee said...

Hi Lily, and welome!

Nah, don't feel bad you didn't know about Meyerowitz... just feel good you know about him now! I don't know that he has the name recognition of Winogrand or Evans but I think he's right up there with them. I also love that he is still working and evolving and trying new things in his 80s. #lifegoals!

Thanks for stopping by!

Really cool Noirvember homage. I love your night photos.

Fix AB5 said...

Hey Laurie!

I had no idea you had a photo website. I love your work. Thanks for all the work you are doing to spread awareness of AB5 on Twitter, too. Have you considered making a video about it?

Margot

Laurie Allee said...

Hello Margot!

Thanks for your kind words! I am thinking about possibly doing a video highlighting the many creatives, nonprofits and others hurt by AB5. I've also reached out to several on Twitter. I know I'm missing out on a lot not being on Facebook but not even AB5 can get me to be on Facebook. Are you in LA? Email me!

Not a Karen said...

I love the geo guesser post and now I simply must play that game.

Laurie Allee said...

Thanks, Not a Karen. I think you'll love playing it -- even if you play it "wrong" like my daughter tells me I do. ;-)

BTW, I love your name!

Ry said...

Hey laurie glad to see you back.

Laurie Allee said...

Hey Ry! Thanks!

photos with brian said...

I just wanted to let you know how much I like your work. I spent a long time going through your photos, listening to the jazz recordings you have listed in y our listening section. Where did you find those recordings?

Anyways thank you for a great visual and listening experience. Is new street work coming any time soon?

Laurie Allee said...

Thanks Brian! As soon as my daughter gets her second shot and passes the two-week period post vaccine I'll be back out in the streets. We've played it very safe during the pandemic. Look for new work in early July!

Laurie Allee said...

Oh and sorry, Brian, I missed your question. I found the recordings on Internet Archive. I cover them (and so many more!) at my website Life Analog: https://www.lifeanalog.com/2021/05/lets-have-vinyl-listening-party.html

Happy listening!
