Weekly Post, Planetary Graffiti by Robert Glenn Ketchum

 Planetary Graffiti

by Robert Glenn Ketchum




Polaroid invented some unique films, and they worked with many artists to see how these products might be used. One of those films was a 35mm called PolaPan. It was a black & white film that came with a small processing box, so after you shot the roll, you could develop it on the spot. I had not shot any black & white for awhile, but this seemed interesting, so I wanted to work with it and they gave me several hundred rolls.

Weekly Post, Denali: Crown Jewel of our National Parks by Robert Glenn Ketchum

Denali:  Crown Jewel of our National Parks
by Robert Glenn Ketchum




Starting in 1985, I spent 24yrs. visiting Alaska several times each year. Of the many places that I went, my favorite was to stay at Camp Denali, where I often lectured and taught workshops. These images were all created during those numerous visits.

Denali:   Crown Jewel of our National Parks #48
Denali #48:  
When you stay at Camp Denali, you need not even go on a naturalist led dayhike. Wonderous things can be seen just walking around nearby. I found this just off the road that parallels Wonder Lake.

Weekly Post, "The Daze of My Life: Robert Glenn Ketchum, An Autobiography"

The Daze of My Life:  Robert Glenn Ketchum, An Autobiography


Biographies are studies of someone's life based on cumulative research. Good ones may reveal something, but probably barely scratch the surface of what actually went on. The internet is allowing me to do something VERY different.

We were getting close to the beach and our cabin, which was a good thing as the late light indicated it would be dark soon.

The North Pole: Sitting on Top of the World by Robert Glenn Ketchum

  The North Pole:  Sitting on Top of the World

by Robert Glenn Ketchum




In 1998, and again in 2002, I had the opportunity to visit The North Pole, Franz Josef Land, Novaya Zemlya, and Yuzhny. Both times the journey was made possible aboard a nuclear Russian ice-breaker. These were unusual voyages into a strange-beautiful landscape, like no other on the planet, so hop aboard, and I will take you to some places you might not ever see otherwise.

The North Pole: Sitting on Top of the World, #85
NP #85
After our helicopter crossed over the narrow channel that separated Novaya Zemlya from Yuzhny, we flew above the Yuzhny icecap that was generating dozens of glaciers that reached tidewater. We scouted the coast where our captain hoped to take us ashore, but all of the approachable bays had glaciers or substantial ice and no place for us to reach the island, so it was now time to head back toward Murmansk.

Weekly Post, THE SONORAN DESERT: Visiting with Don Juan by Robert Glenn Ketchum

THE SONORAN DESERT: 
Visiting with Don Juan
by Robert Glenn Ketchum

In 1988, I was contacted by Luther Propst, Director of the Rincon Institute of Tucson, AZ, who asked me if I could help them devise a campaign to protect a part of Saguaro National Monument from a massive real estate development that would disrupt substantial habitat.  I did so, and we not only succeeded in mitigating the development, we added 30,000 acres to the monument, and got it upgraded to National Park status.  While doing this work, I fell in love with the Sonoran Desert, returning to it repeatedly, and visiting the many varied parts of it in Arizona, Mexico, and Baja, CA.  This is the tale of those visits.

A River Runs Through It

In 1985, I received a commission from Tom Cousins, a significant Atlanta real estate developer, collector, and on the board of the High Museum, to photograph the Chattahoochee National Recreation Area, which includes part of suburban Atlanta.

Weekly Post, "Welcome to Hotel California: Some Pictures from My Backyard" by Robert Glenn Ketchum

Welcome To Hotel California:  Some Pictures from My Backyard

by Robert Glenn Ketchum


I was born and grew up in Los Angeles. As my professional career developed, I traveled around the world working on various commissions, but seldom had opportunities to work in California. Nonetheless, I always came back “home,” and when there, I occasionally took pictures. For ten years I also taught a photography workshop on the Mendocino coast that provided some great visual moments as well. There is no “project” unifying these images, they are just my way of showing, “You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.”
