In browsing through the work, the style that looks painterly is actually a Polaroid technique and no digital alterations have been added.
In finding his own artistic signature, Sturman developed and refined an improvisational, labor-intensive process that synthesizes both his photographic and painterly expertise. Each of his pieces begins with an original image created with a Polaroid SX-70 camera, instant photographic film, and meticulously considered lighting. As soon as the image comes out of the camera, Sturman warms it up to keep the chemical emulsions fluid—depending on his locale when shooting, source heat might be the sun in the tropics, or the warmth of his winter coat in cooler climes.
On site wherever he is in the world, Sturman then immediately carves into the still wet and supple surface of the photo with a variety of handmade tools until he feels the image has been manipulated and transformed to its ultimate potential. The piece is later enlarged using an optimally high-resolution scanner, and a process through which none of the original light radiance or color luminosity is lost. Because Sturman chooses his subject matter in advance with its inherent color values in mind, his palette is extraordinary. Coupled with the impressionistic "brushstrokes" of Sturman's hand implements, the result is as pure a fusion of painting and photography as exists anywhere.
In 2010, with the closing of Polaroid, Sturman made the shift to digital photography.

Before I get started on a little wrap up and news, I want to wish you a happy weekend! It’s been a busy week for me so far and I hope that I get to take tomorrow off. Sunday is generally a day that we take it easy, read the New York Times with a pot (or two) of coffee and often go out for breakfast. Sound good to you?
But today is Saturday and I’m back up at Orchard Supply Hardware in Weston, Florida doing something that I love. I think that I was born to help others and teach, and I’ve been doing a bit of that in consulting customers of the store in interior design and color selection for their homes. So satisfying on many levels, and I feel so fortunate to work with brands that I love…like OSH and Benjamin Moore. Here I am working away yesterday, but following my passions and that doesn’t feel at all like work!
In an interview on a right-wing Christian radio show on KGMS 940 Arizona today, Republican congresswoman and presidential hopeful Michele Bachmann revealed herself to be quite a world history buff.
Bachmann promises to stand up to dinosaur menace.
Besides pointing out the obvious Soviet menace, “What with that pesky Khrushchev always sending missiles to Cuba and all,” Ms Bachmann went on to reassure Americans they would be safe from other dangers to the homeland, including the barbarian hoards out of Europe and dinosaurs.
LAS VEGAS, June 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- A record 1,000 exhibitors, including 211 new exhibitors, filled the Las Vegas Convention Center June 8-10 for InfoComm 2016, occupying 527,105 net square feet of exhibit and special events space — also a show record. Attendees registered for more than 12,000 seats at InfoComm University sessions throughout the week, more than double the number engaged in training and education in 2015. Approximately one-third more unique attendees took InfoComm University™ training at InfoComm than in the past. The spike in training interest was driven in part by the 2,620 seminar and workshop packages sold. InfoComm 2016 was the first time attendees could pay one price and take any of more than 100 courses during exhibition days.
"The AV industry's commitment to advancing technology and showcasing it at InfoComm has never been stronger," said Jason McGraw, CTS®, CAE, Senior Vice President of Expositions, InfoComm International®. "The market is constantly changing and we've been pleased to introduce new features at InfoComm, such as drones, the Internet of Things, and content creation and streaming, which reflect the dynamic nature of commercial AV. In all, 91 percent of space was rebooked for next year, demonstrating exhibitors' strong commitment to the show."
InfoComm 2016 welcomed more than 38,833 visitors, 4.8 percent more than the last time the show was held in Las Vegas, affirming its continued strength as the best-attended annual conference and exhibition for AV buyers and sellers in the Western Hemisphere. More than 35 percent of attendees were visiting InfoComm for the first time.
"This is a thriving, growing, busy industry — especially this time of year — and the fact that so many professionals continue to gather in one place, including new faces and dedicated InfoComm attendees, underscores the important role that the show plays in the success of their businesses and their careers," said David Labuskes, CTS, RCDD, Executive Director and CEO, InfoComm International.
InfoComm continues to grow as a critical venue for professional development and certification. A record 252 attendees registered to take a Certified Technology Specialist exam during InfoComm 2016 and 186 received their certification. Certified professionals earned more than 30,000 renewal units toward maintaining their CTS credentials through continuing education.
Many of InfoComm's growing member councils met at the show. Year-to-date, InfoComm International has welcomed more than 750 new members in North America — double the rate of a year ago. Membership renewals in the first half of 2016 are up almost 40 percent compared to the same time in 2015. InfoComm membership in Europe has climbed 17 percent year-over-year, and overall membership outside the United States has grown 12 percent year-to-date. Up to 20 percent of InfoComm show attendees travel from outside North America to take part.
InfoComm 2016 was sponsored by Presenting Show Partner Samsung, Strategic Show Partners Blackmagic Design and Crestron, and Supporting Show Partner Christie.
InfoComm 2017 will be held June 10-16, 2017, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla.

GREENWOOD VILLAGE, CO (Thu Mar 15, 2012) — Twenty-eleven was a banner year for Christopherson Business Travel, a corporate travel management company headquartered in Salt Lake City (and the parent company of Andavo Travel, a full-service vacation travel agency). The company finished the year with $287 million in sales, an increase of nearly $50 million over sales from 2010. Christopherson also added nearly 40 new team members last year to support the growth.
Because of Christopherson’s dedication to excellence, the company continues to attract the best travel professionals in the industry, who each possess, on average, more than 20 years of travel-related experience. Christopherson maintains an employee turnover rate of less than 3 percent annually among its travel professionals, which is well below the industry average of 20 percent.
When Cameron and his wife, Camille, first purchased Christopherson in 1990, the decision was made to focus solely on business travel. This, Cameron felt, was where the company could excel, but in doing so, they would also need to determine a unique value proposition that would differentiate Christopherson from the competition. That value was found in three areas of the company – their travel agents, their account management, and the development of their technology.
In March 2010, the Camerons purchased Andavo Travel, which they now run as the vacation travel and independent contractor division of the company (more than 70 agents across the country).
Christopherson maintains the mentality that the more the company does to help others, the better everyone will do in return. With this in mind, employees are hired with salaries higher than industry averages, pay incentives for customer satisfaction and agency productivity, a generous 401K retirement program, and flexible work arrangements.
Um, yes. That would be the perfect shirt for this outfit!!
Cute sneakers! The longer this night shift thing goes on the more confused I am. This morning Matt came home right before I left for work and proceeded to make himself eggs for breakfast. I am just wondering if when he wakes up again in 8 hours, will he eat another breakfast?

Loch water rushing over rocky falls, barley malted over moorland peat, slow distillation and long maturation in oak casks; all help to shape Lagavulin’s robust and smoky character. Pungent and potent, this is the great Islay malt. With richly peaty, deep, smoky flavours, it has an inrtense, long, ambrosial finish.

The UK is set to import its first ever cargo of liquefied natural gas from Peru as a pricing dispute forces shipments to Europe, with growing supplies of the supercooled fuel carving out new export routes.
Peru LNG loaded a vessel this week that has its destination listed as the UK, according to data on Lima-based Perupetro’s website. It is carrying about 61,146 metric tonnes of LNG.
The shipment comes as growing supplies of LNG, which are set to expand by almost 50 per cent between 2015 and 2020, press prices and make it more competitive against coal and other power sources.
Royal Dutch Shell, which has a 100 per cent offtake agreement with Peru LNG, has had to divert supplies away from Mexico as lower international prices have provoked a price dispute between the two countries.
The shipment from Peru set for the UK would beat the US, whose bumper supply of shale gas is set to turn it into a major exporter. With Australia and Russia also preparing to export more, north-west Europe is predicted to see growing supplies by 2020.
The Peruvian government’s margins have been pressed by a 15-year deal with Mexico. The contract has tracked US Henry Hub prices, which have more than halved over the past several years as shale gas supplies ballooned. Efforts to change the terms of the linked contract have been unsuccessful.
The Gallina LNG tanker will come from Peru via the recently expanded Panama Canal. Industry analysts say they believe that the cargo is probably being taken by Shell to the Dragon LNG facility terminal in Wales, where it now has a 50 per cent stake after the acquisition of BG Group. It could still be diverted to another buyer.
Mexico, in the meantime, has issued tenders for LNG from other suppliers.
Ed Cox, editor of Global LNG Markets at ICIS, which provides pricing information and market analysis, said the shipment, while noteworthy, may just be a “one-off”.
Shell declined to comment on the Peru shipment.
The shipment to the UK comes as UK natural gas prices recently reached the highest in more than two years. UK LNG imports have fallen this winter as Qatar, the biggest exporter of the fuel, has diverted deliveries to customers in Asia where cold weather has boosted prices further.
Although analysts say the UK is still adequately supplied by stored and pipeline gas — the country has taken in supplies from Belgium and Netherlands — prices have crept higher in recent weeks.
The price of natural gas trading in Europe, as measured by the UK National Balancing Point (NBP) front month hub price, hit $7.47 (£6.12) per million British thermal units on February 3, the highest since November 2014.
But the price, which has traded at lower levels than elsewhere in Europe and East Asia of late, has since fallen to $6.68/mmbtu on milder weather forecasts.
Thierry Bros, Senior Research Fellow at the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies, said the UK and Europe would benefit from the coming glut of LNG and could boost imports.
“We need something more consistent, particularly as we diversify away from Russian piped gas. This means we need to attract whatever foreign supplies we can,” Mr Bros said.
Swiss commodity trader Trafigura is planning to reopen an LNG import terminal in the north-east of England next year, which will give it greater access to the UK market.
