The Blue Whitetail: December 2018

Smith & Bresson Club

Smith & Bresson Club - I was inspired to create the Smith & Bresson Club for photography by the Pope and Young Club, which is for bowhunters. There are certain requirements, which a bow kill needs to satisfy in order to qualify for acceptance in the Pope and Young Club. The criteria to be accepted in the Smith & Bresson club will be based on my own subjective view of my work, which I will score. In short, those photographs that are part of this club will be my best work and those pieces, which would be part of an exhibition. Any photos that meet this criteria, will be marked by a small skull icon.

Snake the Bowhunter

'Snake the Bowhunter' - 2016 KJ Papas

The 2018 bowhunting season has ended with my killing of 4 whitetail does. My freezer is full of delicious venison but may film I have shot in 2018 had not been processed so my photographic posts have been on hold. I will be receiving my negatives shortly from the lab and will restart the posting of my full frame photographs. 2019 will be a year which will begin with my roaming the streets of Rochester, New York, hunting for images...rectangles. I hope to bowhunt for rectangles in the upcoming 2019 bowhunting season and with luck will be able to kill one and with more luck be able to shoot many Smith and Bresson photographs. I hope you will be patient and will wait for the photographic rectangles to show up in the blog once more.
