Get Off My Lawn
Get Off My Lawn Issue #1, published by Geoffrey Ellis
Photo zine impresario Geoffrey Ellis released issue #1 of Get Off My Lawn this week, and I am very happy to have my work included. The zine features the work of eleven photographers who are 34 years and older. (I am only 33, but I was grandfathered in). Get Off My Lawn is a tongue-in-cheek response to the calls for entry, contests and publications that require “emerging photographers” to be somewhere between the ages of 18 and 34. Contributors include: Noah Beil, Geoffrey Ellis, Grant Ernhart, Alan W George, Liz Kuball, Sarah Lacy, Ian Lemmonds, Jennifer Loeber, Dalton Rooney, Andrew Martin Scott, and Justin Visnesky. I received my copy a couple of days ago, and it is fantastic.
Geoffrey’s zines have a habit of selling out quickly, so I would get over there and get one if I were you. I have a promotional copy I would like to give away, too. Just leave a comment here or, even better, click the little Twitter button attached to this post and post a tweet about it. (Make sure your tweet links back to this post so I can find it.) One lucky commentor/tweeter will receive a free copy of the zine with one of my photographs on the cover, signed by me. The winner will be announced on Tuesday, July 6, so good luck!
Update: Bill at expiredfilm.com won the zine. Congratulations!
Geoffrey still has copies left, you can grab one here. (Look in the sidebar for the “Add to Cart” option.)
