Window Shopping
New b&w printer from Epson, a high-
speed lens from Tamron and the latest
SLR from Canon
company (some 130 people) to invite
them to a mini exhibition held in our
boardroom of the winning entries of the
Black & White Photographer of the Year award.
I admit that I’m throwing in cup cakes as an
added incentive but each year we have a rush
of people from departments as diverse as
advertising to book publishing, all keen to see
the winning prints. And what’s so fascinating
is the amount of discussion that it engenders,
even among those who claim artistic immunity.
I just think that people find images exciting. And
that in itself is exciting. I hope you enjoy them
as much as we have done – and sorry there are
no cup cakes, I would have arranged it if I could.
