Kind of Crewdson-esque, but simpler and more commercial. Most of his stuff has that melancholy/mystery that I love.

Very fond of both these two, particularly Barkat.

For those not aware, White did the Understanding Joshua series. His website is http://www.charliewhite.info/, not .com.

Picked up a book called The Sea by Philip Plisson, found it in the nature section of the barnes and noble near me. Really liked the aerial shots of the open water.

Has pictures of boats, open water, lighthouses and lots of other sea related stuff, the detail is incredible in the book.

Here's some low quality pics I found online.

Same here. I bookmarked it a while ago, and I'll see it in my photography bookmarks, and either go and glance, or just move on. Too powerful.

I agree. It's all of those things you describe. Perhaps the most moving website/pictures I've seen in a very very long time.

This set really made me tear up, the photos are fantastic, the story that goes with it is heartbreaking. A similar story is going on in my own family at the moment, as it would be for many others.

To navigate just move your mouse to the bottom of the image until it moves, then click.

I posted that one a few pages ago, and unfortunately the story I was referring to in my own family has sadly come to the inevitable conclusion a few days ago.

How does the water of the brain yield the wine of conscious experience? - Some one quoted it once.
I am a huge baby, I totally teared up (no real crying because I was at work).

The thing that made my gut drop was the photo of the father's note pad. The slow realisation as you read the list, you realise as he would have realised, first you don't know one little thing and then you realise you have no idea where anyone is. For all you know you could be completely alone. Adrift. Oh, and the message he wrote to his wife, who would never hear it.

Argh and his sighing.


Okay, so everything was sad.

But, it's also great. The last comment the son made, about his dad having gone to Paris to meet his Mum, is heart-warming and sweet, even to an atheist like me.

Not for me, if the afterlife is real then yay, if it's not think of all those people dying knowing they were going to a good place. That just chills me. BUT ENOUGH ABOUT RELIGION.

But it's beautiful, it's just ultimately sad.

Moving is the word. Photography should be moving, art should move people.

While not nearly as emotionally moving as the last few galleries, whenever I see a Grant Gunderson photo on the cover of a ski magazine I get all excited. He's my favourite sports photographer.

Not sure how to link an image off his site:
http://www.grantgunderson.com/

I find his work doubly inspiring/frustrating: I can't shoot like him nor can I ski like the athletes he shoots.

For any other gluttons for heartrending, beautifully moving stories, there's this: http://vimeo.com/12562270 I was tearing up barely into the second minute. The depth of love that is possible between two people is so :unsmith:, it never ceases to amaze.

This is the point where I lost it:

Danny a week before he died posted:

"My love for you up to this point was as much as it could be, and will be as much as it could be for eternity... All I have to give you is a poor gift, and that's myself. And I always gave it. And if there's a way to come back and give it, I'll do that too."

Check out the rest here.
The photo of a boy working with a mallet and the boy in the street surrounded by bowls are just a couple of the great ones.

(They are all about the importance/issues with slums, this one being Dharavi in Mumbai.)

I think Danny is seriously the most naturally (and unpretentiously) eloquent person I've ever heard. He's like real-time poetry.
