Kathy Hutchins's Shoes

One of the amazing things about Marketplace is the depth of imagery you’ll see. I looked at thousands of Kathy Hutchins’ photographs of celebrities big and small. Traipsing through the gems are scores of surprising photos of stars’ shoe-clad feet - as delicate, or not-so-delicate, as the stars themselves. What a presentation they would make.

I’ve seen more than a million pictures of the president so it was a great surprise to see this one in DRR. It’s a moment.

Hmm, let's hope he recycles that paper cup...

What is she fretting over?

I can't but wonder what she is fretting over? Did she leave the iron on? Forget to pick the kids up from school?

I love how this image manages to say so much while just depicting the base of a table and two sets of legs.

Robert Leslie is photographing the Cannes Film Festival (May 16th-27th) and I have to say I am checking for new images daily as I am so fascinated by the images he is submitting. Many of them tell multiple stories in the same frame and all of them make me wish that I was there standing next to him seeing what he is seeing.

Check here frequently while the festival is running as he is adding new images almost every day.

You can also read more about Robert at our Member blog.

When I was in college one of my photography professors played the song “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” to help teach us about the power of repetition in art.

This image could have also been used in his lesson and speaks to why this image was chosen as one of 50 finalists in the May 2007 International Center for Fine Art Photography's "Interactions" competition.

Great shot Darlene and 'good luck' with the competition

I was reading Tim Gunn's new book A Guide to Quality, Taste and Style loved how he described Catherine Deneuve's style so I had to check out her fashion first hand on Marketplace. These two images are among my favorite images of her in Marketplace and SO make me want to go to Paris and do some shopping.
