I'm pleased to feature an audio slideshow titled "Milongas! The Seduction of Tango" of my still black & white photographs made in various tango halls and milongas of Buenos Aires during the week I spent there teaching with the Foundry Photojournalism Workshop.Note: You have two viewing options: either to view it as a Vimeo movie (above) or as a SoundSlides, which has better resolution images.I am equally pleased in having broken many of my self-imposed rules which I religiously followed when producing such multimedia pieces.

Happy Fourth of July!...
