The Photography And Self Class Celebration And Photo Exhibit

Yesterday afternoon I attended the Photography and Self class celebration and photo exhibit. Photography and Self was a four-session exploration of self through photography and intergenerational discussions, jointly sponsored by the Denver Public Library and the University of Denver. Half the class was made up of DU photography students, and half were senior citizens from the community. One of the instructors was Roddy MacInnes, seen on the right in the photograph above along with me. Roddy is a great photographer, and when I worked at the DU Bookstore, I took many of his classes. Back in April I ran into him while walking my sister Susan's dog Blackberry across the campus, and he invited me to join the class. For the celebration, Roddy printed out large color photographs he had taken of each class member, and exhibited them all along the walls of the room. He told me it was a pretty busy morning getting them all done, and I definitely believe it - there were a lot of people in that class. Great to see you again and take another of your classes, Roddy!
