Myth and Legends Photography -- Shayne McGuire


Shayne McGuire I have had a camera in my hand since I was a child. I still have my old Olympus OM 4 that I use on my fisheyes and my infrared film. I shoot both 35MM and 645. I have shot with 6x7 as well. I shoot Negative film, slides, black/white and b/w infrared film. I hand develop all my b/w and infrared film, and hand print them as well. Each photograph I hand print in b/w will never be the same as the next one. No 2 are alike. All my color negative prints are hand done by me as well. The slides go to a custom lab and they are hand printed on type R paper, no digital! How many photographers still hand print their own photographs. So when you buy a photograph from me, you can be assured that is not a mass market produced photograph. A bit about me. • Won two awards for Creative Excellence in Tri-Community's "From Here to Infinity" contest • The Camera Company's Award for best scenic photograph • 1999 Colourcraft Printing Company's Calendar for a winter shot of Half Dome from Yosemite National Park • Photographic work displayed at the 1999 L.A. County Fair • Featured on the cover of Gaelsong Catalog with Callanish Stones photograph offered inside • Shared cover of Gaelforce Catalog with legendary Celtic artist, Courtney Davis, as well as carrying Shayne's photographs for sale. Voted into Tri Community's Halls of Excellence in 1996. Several of my photographs are now used in historic books and magazines Featured article in the NY Irish Voice. I now teach photographic classes at Tri Community Adult Photography School. I conduct seminars on travel to the British Isles, and return every year to hear the laughter of the leprechaun, the wail of the banshee, the music of the fairies, and the splendor of Camelot. "Hawkmoon" is now on a CD cover The white horse logo ( Uffington Horse) is my trademark signature and is stamped in the corner of all photographic mats. I now have a photograph of this logo, by flying over the landmark and taking an aerial photograph. Shayne's Myth & Legends Photography can be found at various fairs throughout California. For upcoming events, contact Shayne.
