The Islamic Republic of Iran – Photos by Randy H. Goodman

by

“The Islamic Republic of Iran (1980-1983): A Photojournalist’s View”
Photojournalist Randy H. Goodman’s photography exhibit on Iran, was recently held during a Rutgers University conference entitled “The Iranian Revolution: Thirty Years”.


Ms. Goodman’s photographs capture the spirit and struggles of the early years of the revolution (1980-83) and include a portrait of Ayatollah Khomeini, religious services, images from the Iran-Iraq war zone, demonstrations and everyday life. The show was enthusiastically received and Goodman is currently scheduling other venues for the exhibit, including museums and universities throughout the country.

DSI collaborated with Goodman to scan and print the twenty images. Owner Eric Luden assisted with the edit and was a consultant to the project. Randy had this to say about DSI: “Phenomenal work! I loved all of the attention to details and Eric and Jay’s professional advice.”

Wait!!!! Don’t Jump!!!
Rise above the competition with solid business strategies
John Harrington
Monday January 26, 2009

Photographer John Harrington’s business savvy has successfully brought him through two previous economic downturns. In this two-part seminar John will share insights on how to tweak your current business practices to operate more efficiently and more profitably.

In part one John starts with a discussion of the business side of photography: from pricing to negotiations, client relationships to logistical challenges. John shares actual negotiations with clients, from the back-and-forth over prices, to the final agreement and resulting images.

Part two will be about learning the back-end secrets of how Search Engine Optimization can maximize your web presence and keep you at the top of “The List.”

Based in Washington DC for nearly two decades John has covered the world of politics, traveled internationally, and negotiated contracts along the way. His work has appeared in Time, Newsweek and Rolling Stone, and his commercial clients have included Coca-Cola, XM Satellite Radio and Lockheed Martin. He has lectured on the importance of solid business practices and published the book Best Business Practices for Photographers in 2007.

The Photography of Ron Rosenstock
By Paul Caponigro

Ron has worked within the tradition of large-format landscape photography for many years and comes to it with caring and a simple love of the craft. His eye surveys the external world as if inquiring; his images offer us intimations of answers. The elements of his subjects seem to align themselves to his quiet intent. Cloud, water, stone and mist-drenched and sun-gleamed flora arrange themselves in his photographs much like iron filings aligning to a magnet. Within this realm of affirmation we hear the quiet “whisperings” of his silver manipulations. His revelations, and our own, soon follow.

Ron’s images not only convey the grace of fine tradition but also his gratitude to those masters of photography who provided him with a foundation in the value of the craft. His photographs bespeak the peace and poise that come from attuning himself to the medium and to his own world. What appears to be longing in Ron’s photographs mirrors the longing we all feel for the spirit concealed from view. Mystery seems to be gentle with Ron; he accepts the challenge of discovery without brooding excessively over veiled treasures. Through the camera he sustains his search for connections with such mysteries. We see in his photographs his perseverance towards the greater flight.
