This is the very pinnacle of creative fine art photography.

Nick’s Gregan’s Ambiguous Misdirection exhibition is nothing like anything seen before in the Galleries of London!

Pushing the boundaries of contemporary photographers imagination, the depth and intrigue to this collection is captivating, it transports you into a generous roving space that is the curiosity of your imagination.

As you walk around the gallery each and every image begs the viewer to interact with it, to ask how they were created and where they were they created. The answer is in the visionary creativity that is the mind of the photographer.

St. Paul, Minn. (Vocus/PRWEB ) April 20, 2010 — It’s as if you were there: Aug. 21, 1965, and the only Minnesota appearance by the Beatles, the biggest rock band of all time. Seventeen-year-old Bill Carlson was there. Trying to hone his craft, Carlson was eager to grab an unclaimed press pass and shoot the Beatles’ arrival at the airport, the press conference and the concert that followed. Carlson took more than 140 photographs that day, capturing the personality of the Beatles and their fans in spontaneous, casual, black-and-white images. Now, 45 years later, history lovers, music lovers and everyday Minnesotans can relive the day for themselves in the new exhibit “The Beatles! A One-Night Stand in the Heartland,” at the Minnesota History Center, July 17 – Sept. 12, 2010.

The exhibit features 36 images, some of which are never-before-seen pictures of the Beatles in concert. Through the images, exhibit goers will be able to make intimate connections with the Beatles, a band that changed music and popular culture forever. The photographs also tell the story of Carlson, a young photographer just starting out in his career, who attended the press conference where he talked with George Harrison about his new Rickenbacker guitar. But Carlson wasn’t the only teenager following the Beatles. At the concert, there were more than 25,000 screaming, shouting, cheering and swooning fans. Carlson’s photographs capture close-up moments of fans touched by the Beatles and their music as well as mob scenes with girls waiting to greet the band as they got off the plane and during the press conference.
