Yahara Photographic: Homage (Volume Six)
We all have mentoring forces in our lives. Those that do their best to teach us to live upstanding lives, and those that demonstrate ways to make a living and survive. But some offer something additional and flavored with meaning. They are the ones I want to give homage to in this zine. They are photographers who I believe are masters of the craft of seeing and communicating.

Yahara Photographic: Resonance (Volume Seven)
To explore the term resonance that connects photography with the inner artist prompts the meaningful and serious side of art and craft. There is a creative tension and fine-tuning that is felt. It is not a term to take lightly in either work or life.

Yahara Photographic: Mannequin Listening (Volume Eight)
Yes, there is the most well-recognized purpose for mannequins, the sale of fashion and other products. But I believe there is something more to consider. It is what this zine is trying to bring before us; the very real relational cnnection between 'them' and us.

Yahara Photographic: Nighthawking (Volume Nine)
There is a well-known painting by Edward Hopper entitled Nighthawks. Whenever I look at this particular work of his, I find myself entering that corner coffee shop and sitting alongside the people at the counter. The scene is late at night, and the lonesome part of me is activated. And then, I suddenly want to make a quick road trip to close-by metros of Milwaukee, Minneapolis, or Chicago.

Yahara Photographic: Wabi Sabi (Volume 10)
This volume on wabi-sabi represents a fitting conclusion---beauty in the nature of things and beauty in their transient nature. The more I study the philosophical aspects of Taoism and the complementary understandings of Zen Buddhism, haiku poetry, and Wu-Wei, the more I enjoy the art of photography.
