Jack McConnell is a prominent Hartford photographer. He has been working on a project photographing Connecticut farmers. A selection of his prints has been displayed
at the Hartford Public Library, where I met him at a reception.
One of Jack's subjects is John Cavanna of Cavanna Farms in Glastonbury. His family farm produces the apples sold throughout Stop and Shop's Connecticut grocery stores.
John is also a Hartford police officer.

Wow, that looks interesting.
A bit like Richard Avedon..... doing something similar years back.
That's sounds like an interesting photo project. Nice portraits Jack!
What an interesting project and wonderful portraits by you!
Both of them look like real characters.
Two m ore of your great portraits, Jack!
Nice with his portrait of John as a backdrop in your portrait of the farmer.
The match of these people and the photographs is wonderful. The set reminds me to obey the speed limit the next time I drive through Hartford.
I like the idea of documentary photography projects like that. (Though mine would never be of people. I leave the portraiture to you, as you are so good at it.)
I like the work this photographer is doing.
You do take great portraits
