Using a compact digital camera, Len uses his advantage to create some powerful images, one of which won him first place in the annual photo competition at the famous Salmagundi Art Club in NY.
Recently Len was honored by having some of his work added to the permanent collection of the Erie Art Museum in Erie, Pennsylvania. Some of those images are shown below.
In addition to all of the above, Len is a true gentleman. He was kind enough to send me an autographed copy of his latest work, taken while in Erie last winter. I’m having it framed and will hang it in my office along with other personal treasures.
Listen my conversation with Len in Issue 11 of Street Photography Magazine.
