On MJ and his brothers
27/06/09 20:48
In just over a year, little brother Michael would begin a trajectory of fame and stardom that would eclipse his most remarkable moments under Berry Gordy. In short order, he would emerge as the saving grace of the film version of The Wiz and record the first solo album on which he would exercise his growing production and songwriting skills.
The Jacksons in 1978 seemed very much in flux, caught between the glories of their past and an uncertain future, the band was confident in performance and capable in public presence.
My brief encounter with them during the few days that they spent in Trinidad and Tobago would forever change the arc of my own career, the photo that I stumbled into of Michael and Penny Commissiong forever lifted my profile from writer with a camera to photographer and changed my own perception of my capabilities and potential.
The Jacksons tour of 1978 didn't change my life, but it accelerated my travels along an inevitable path and gave me both the confidence to pursue a shaky professional venture and the will to stick with it when things didn't work out.
I have no doubt that Michael and his brothers forgot all about me before they even set foot on their flight back home and I will confess to have thought little about the encounter over the past three decades, but in reposting the story I sold to Owen Baptiste's People Magazine (my first major story in a magazine and pictures on a glossy cover) I hope to share something of what happened during those few days and to pay homage to the young star who passed away on June 25.

Tribe PDF crosses 7,000 downloads

Tribe downloads as logged by my web statistics as of March 26, 2008. The other files in the listing are small files associated with page designs on the website. Overall statistics cover two years of cumulative data. The Tribe PDF is just under 800KB and only downloads when someone specifically clicks on it.
Downloads of the facsimile document of Gathering the Tribe, my account of a year spent observing the Carnival band Tribe's production process has crossed 7,000 downloads in its first month of availability.
The PDF file of the three pages allocated to me in the Guardian's Ash Wednesday Carnival souvenir created a spike in the bandwidth on my site's servers this month, but it's a welcome surge and covered by my hosting arrangements.
Thanks for your interest.
The file, along with PDFs of the first eight in the series are to be found here...

Got to
stop working while I'm half asleep.
Failed to recover some lost data from the Tribe story, but I did manage to fix the oversharpening on the Tribe gallery.
Much of the project is shot existing light with high ISO settings, so too much sharpening makes the images particularly cruddy.
I've also upped the resolution to 900 pixels as a bonus.
Added a text page with the copy that has accompanied all nine of the stories and revamped the design of the pages.

Macintosh blog merged

After adding the Macintosh blog last
year, I've decided to merge the contents of the Mac content with
the main blog.
I'll continue to add entries and I'll be adding some navigation tools to make accessing the material a little easier.
At least it won't be so embarassing when weeks go by without an update.

Mass updates

After
almost a full week of hacking my lungs up and blowing my sinuses
into a rather vast assortment of tissues, I've finally mustered the
energy to begin posting to the site again.
Fortunately, I'm working from copious notes from the show floor at PhotoPlus Expo 2008, so the assortment of drugs and remedies I've been ingesting hasn't quite succeeded in wiping my brain pan clean of what I encountered over the three days of Expo.
Herewith, a roundup of all the new postings to the site...
BitDepth 651 covers a panel at PhotoPlus on the way Microstock has changed the face of not just stock photography sales but the profile of contributors.
There are additional notes from that panel posted to my Photo Blog here.
BitDepth 652 covers the panel of winners of this year's All Roads Project. Just one of the winners was able to make it, and his story is a remarkable one.
Day One of my PhotoPlus expo blog coverage covers the hunt for a new sling bag.

Added
Lightshow capability to the BitDepth archive pages with #595.
Lightshow is similar to Lightbox, which I added to the blog page
recently as well to make viewing larger images more user
friendly.
New BitDepth instalments as well as older images that are added to the archive will have the feature first and then I'll have a look at how to improve currently archived columns.
