Pictured here is Vittorio Sella on the Highest Peak of the Rouies as seen from the Chardon Glacier, August 3, 1888. Vittorio Sella’s home was in Biella, Italy – he began his career in 1879, climbing and photographing the nearby Alps with his 11×14 large-format field camera and wet plate collodion glass negatives. The great Italian photographer passed away on this day, August 12, in 1943.
The exhibit, Heights of Observation: The Photographs of Vittorio Sella (1859 – 1943), will open on September 9 and run though November 8 at the Panopticon Gallery.

“When the Carmichael Gallery contacted me about doing a show, they were at first surprised by my initial selection … it didn’t include any of the images that people are used to seeing from me, like gangs, drugs and other hardcore stuff. It was a selection of totally new work mostly of normal day-to-day life, and much of it in color. After years and years of shooting only b&w film, I started seeing images in color some time last year, and it opened up a whole new world for me. After going back and forth with the gallery, we came up with a final selection which we called The Uncovering. It’s a pretty apocalyptic series, but I think it really represents the new me.” – Boogie. To see more of his work click here.

This was taken at 14,000 ft on Denali. A few weeks ago Stefen Chow made it up to the summit with 127 pounds of gear, 40 of which was pure camera gear. It is really a tight rope between juggling the safety and success of the climb vs making compelling images on the mountain. This image was made when the weather on Denali was turning for the worse, which has a notorious record of severe snow storms and conditions colder than Everest. Chow, an editorial and commercial photographer, is based between Beijing and Singapore. His work has appeared in Geo, Time, Wall Street Journal, Associated Press, Shell, Cartier and Keppel Shipyard. Chow is also a mountaineer with extensive experience climbing in the Himalayas including summitting Mount Everest back in 2005.

On July 1st, the State of Nuevo Leon, México, woke up devastated by hurricane Alex brutal force. Hurricane Alex was the first tropical storm that hit the north of the country on 2010. It’s strength and devastation became a catastrophe in the State of Nuevo Leon. Thousands of people lost their homes and entire cities were under water. Nobody was prepared for what happened next, as it kept raining. Rivers overflowed causing rescuers to take longer than expected to help those stuck in high risk zones.
