KQED QUEST

My work is being featured in a spot on KQED Quest. If you are in the Bay Area, that's channel 9 at 7:30pm July 22. The broadcast will also be up on the KQED website. Thanks to the great KQED crew who interviewed me and made me feel very comfortable in front of the microphone and camera. www.kqed.org/quest/television/your-photo s-on-quest--erin-...

Often overlooked, the trails and marshes of Alviso are places of great beauty. Over the past several years I have often gone out to these places to experience the wind, the marshes and to wonder at the teeming bird life. My process is primarily to make long exposures with pinhole and zoneplate rather than a glass lens. These long exposures made on Polaroid material force me to slow down and to appreciate the beauty around me. I make beautiful, impressionistic images in a place that many see as ugly. My hope is that these images change their mind about the hidden beauty here.

I often carry other cameras with me besides the pinhole and a few of those are included here as well.
