Why do I love my job today? Cuz we have a customer whose wife just dropped off slides to be scanned. The customer who shot the slides? Jim-Freakin'-Brandenburg!!! My absolute favorite nature photographer!!! I am so fan-girling right now!!!!
Never heard of him? First, shame on you! Second, go here: http://www.jimbrandenburg.com/

I love his concertos.



What?

That concerto guy wishes he had this Brandenburgs talent!!

That is so cool!

I know! Totally fangirling! Also planning to bring my copy of his book with me tomorrow to ask for an autograph in case he happens to come with his wife to pick them up. :)
Moose is in Boston with Hellbob though so a Brandenburg/Moose photo isn't possible. :(

Dang the moose and it's wanderlust!

I've been to the gallery in Luverne, and wished I had much, much more free cash. Why was he bringing slides in to you in the Cities?

[hellziggy.livejournal.com]

Because I'm just that cool! :P
Actually, they were here in town for a seminar of some sort this last weekend, and they came here because they know the guys who work here.

Wow, that's so awesome! I have given my mother Brandenburg books and framed prints for gifts... he's really a terrific photographer. My Mom's met him, and says he's a nice guy, too.

Coolness!

On a completely unrelated note, have you seen this?

The guy with the wolf picture! Okay I know he did more, but that is the one I think of, because it was on the cover of his book, was it not? Anyhoo, very cool. I'm glad you get to be fangirly.

It kind of reminds me about the time my parents had drinks with Matthew Fox. (I don't know how to do that cool linky thing, you would just have to go look him up) I love his books, and I was just gahhhhhing that they got to meet him and then sat in a bar with him and friends and discussed religion!

Isn't it great when your job affords you a chance to deal with squee-inducing fan-girl opportunities! Good for you! Awesome!

I'm more of a portrait girl, but man, that guy is good. And I actually knew the name :)
