I think artist photographer Lauren Marsolier is a genius. His ability to detect healthy tension and strong composition in a seemingly sterile location is inspiring. It’s one thing to capture a beautiful photo from something that is interesting and captivating from the get go, it’s another to capture something beautiful and interesting from a location [...]

One way to go about capturing a strong image is to be in an interesting place to begin with. I really enjoy Argijale’s Flickr photostream because he seems to constantly immerse himself in places and situations that make for interesting photography. Visit -> www.flickr.com/photos/argijale/ Berlin based photographer and designer Matthias Heiderich is a master at minimalism and at setting a distinct melodramatic mood with his photography. I personally enjoy the muted palette that he achieves with his photo processing and his ability to balance his subject matter vs. the void. Brilliant work, more to see beyond the links below.

The stunning light and texture make them feel like old master oil paintings. More beautiful work beyond the link below (discovered on www.nalden.net). Excerpt from his website: “In 2009 I left for Kenya to work on a photographic project, I intended to portray the subtle balance [...] The small images above barely begin to relay the awesomeness of the work coming from advertising, fine art, and editorial photographer Ryan Schude. His set design, lighting and well choreographed action scenarios are impecable and great fun to look over. I’m also a big fan of his portrait works. View more, much larger, beyond the [...] I feel so lucky to have discovered London based photographer Dan Holdsworth’s work this evening while browsing various photography sites. His sensibility to light and minimalist composition is so exceptional that I think I may have a tough time getting some of these images out of my head any time soon. They are truly mesmerizing. The [...] Chicago based artist and gallery curator David “Netherland” van Alphen is the creator of these wonderfully obscure 1970s charged collage works. Consistent in theme and playfully nostalgic, his site makes for an entertaining and inspirational place to click around. You can also purchase some of his prints here. Visit -> http://web.mac.com/dvagallery/Netherland_Art/Home.html An old friend of mine from back east (NYC) turned me on to this Minneapolis based band called ‘Cloud Cult’ recently. If you like the eclectic and textured sounds of bands like The Broken Social Scene, The Deadly Syndrome and Grizzly Bear, I think you may find Cloud Cult to be to your liking as well. [...] The photography of Calgary based photographer Levi Wedel is crisp, light conscious and dead-on when it comes to framing and composition. He shoots primarily with a Hasselblad 903SWC film camera and enjoys printing his works ‘old school’ or analog. He also curates a fresh photography blog called ‘Images Found’, where he showcases images he’s found [...] I’ve recently come across the fantastic work of photographer Heiko Waechter. I love her sense of light, color and compositional balance. She has the uncanny ability to produce images that are consistently bold in contrast and extremely graphic, one beautiful shot after another. Many more beyond the link. Visit -> http://www.heikowaechter.com Shoreditch, London based photographer Jonathan Winstone, takes incredible shots that look to be the product of someone who is completely immersed in his subject matter. He’s captured a ton of ‘one in a million’ moments from within the urban fixie/skate culture that range from in-action riding to his time in-transit and some phenomenal portraits of [...] Paris based artist/photographer Ruben Brulat has his attention focused on capturing humanity. In his collection of photos that he calls ‘Immaculate’ you can sense that he is trying to capture the basics of humanity amongst dramatic, heavy man made architecture, to me making man seem all that more fragile and defeated by his own creations. Visit [...] A new friend turned me on to the work of Washington state based artist/photographer Chris Engman. Many of his photos are taken in the scenic desert region of eastern Washington. His subjects range from lonely hand-built half frame houses to conceptual arrangements of repeating geometric shapes that are placed in contrast within very natural/organic backdrops like the examples above. I like this [...] I can imagine that Beethoven would have been very interested to see his music visualized through this graphic animation. Each colored bar represents the musical instrument that is being played at any given time of the score. While viewing I was reminded of how brilliantly complex this composition actually is. The graphic itself that is [...] The other day I came across Wai Fong Fung’s unusual but refreshing Flickr stream. His imagination, vast collection of action figures from all genres and brilliant sense of humor have all been key in contributing to his quirky photography. His merge of everyday scenarios with not-so-everyday characters produces some really entertaining subject matter. If you’re [...] |
