Print Purchase Highlight: William Neill

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

The work of William Neill is the second of five prints to highlight from my Buying Prints from Your Favorite Photographers blog project.

In my enthusiasm for prints I learned you have to be careful what you ask for. For some time before the project kicked off I had been following Bill’s blog and Flickr photostream. Before and during most of the blog project Bill was marketing his Impressions of Light eBook and I was quite forward in my interest in a printed version in a comment made to one of his Flickr photos. I found it ironic that Bill was exploring electronic distribution while I was promoting collecting printed work. Towards the end of the blog project Bill released a deluxe edition book of Impressions of Light with a signed print. I was sold. The book is great and I’m enjoying the print immensely. If you’re not familiar with Bill’s work you should definitely check out his web site and read his regular column in Outdoor Photographer.

For now Bill’s “Giant Sequoias” print graces the wall of my office. At some point in the future I’ll pair it with other prints in a more artistic presentation.

Wonderful choice Jim. It is one of my 2 FAVs from that series!!
The other is the black trunks in the white snow. Blows my mind.
May it inspire you for years as his images have me.
Bill IS one of the BEST... I can't wait to see what
he submitted to the Yosemite Renaissance???
Kudos on your latest new arrival ;-)

Hey Jim,

I was going to send you an email right before this post...I bought Bill's book as well right after I purchased the print from Art. The images are pretty amazing! I chose the print of the trees in winter. It was a hard decision between the one that you have chosen and then one I went with. Hope all is well.

Thanks for sharing Jim - it's interesting to hear the accompanying stories.

I also participated in a project, although I never left an entry on your blog. I was able to obtain 9 prints from other photographers I admire. I'll blog about it in the near future and will leave a comment with a link when I do.

By the way, where do you buy the frames?
