Eye of the Storm: The Photos of Paul McCartney

 

The deYoung Museum in San Francisco has a great exhibit going on. It is called "Eye of the Storm." It is pictures that Paul McCarthy took from the winter of 1963 until 1964.  Besides being a super talented musician, McCartney was a talented photographer:

I have kind of broken down the photos by Beatle:

John Lennon:


John and George 






George Harrison:



Ringo and George 

Ringo Starr:



And there were pics taken by the bands entourage with Paul's camera:





My favorite picture was The Beatles with a young Muhammad Ali:


This exhibit is something that needs to be seen in person. My pictures don't do it justice. It is totally amazing to see these as it chronicles the time as The Beatles were blowing up.

  3. Some of these are really famous - I didn't realise Paul took them (also Ringo and George in the hats are in the cartoon!) #Allseasons

  4. Love the Beatles. I was in high school when they arrived here in America. We all loved them. I need to go see this in person. Beautiful shots.

  5. One of my favorite songs is, 'Yesterday'. Photography is an art like singing. Does not surprise me that Paul took some amazing photographs.
    Take care and best wishes.
