MotoGP is about to start up again for the year, so I started wandering through some of my favorite MotoGP photographers, ran across this.   Maybe not the most technically amazing capture ever but goddamn what a moment. Also really dug this:

Hey, can I make a request? Because you know, it's about other photographers, it seems most suitable thread here and most likely you guys will know this one since people here seem to know everything...! I've been looking this photo project for my thesis, but seems like I have deleted the bookmark from my browsers. The photo project's idea was set of 12 waist up potrait photos including 12 different persons with same physichal assets. Like white nude woman with dread locks or black bold business guy. I think the photographer/s were based in either Germany or Holland/Belgium/Luxemburg-axel. Even thought it might be cool to see those dozens of the sets they had on their site back then, I don't mind getting their book about the project, if they had taken the pictures away from the internet. el Brainvomito fucked around with this message at 21:00 on Apr 23, 2012 |

No images to share, because they're easy enough to find. But I just wanted to say that I got a copy of Jim Nachtwey's Inferno today. This book is loving HUGE and it's a gigantic black monument to a decade of suffering and destruction in Eastern Europe and Africa. This is a very powerful book. Where War Photographer will get you fired up over the man but still get the message across, in Inferno there's no hero to cling to and the subject matter hits you square in the guts. Nachtwey is an amazing man. Not only is he working under extreme circumstances but his craft is wired so tight. It was on sale on Amazon.ca (I paid something like $125), I suggest everyone jump on it if possible.

It's being hammered right now because of Reddit, but this is a great set of 4x5 Kodachromes from WW2. I've been really enjoying WW2 era photos lately, and these are fantastic. http://pavelkosenko.wordpress.com/2012/03/28/4x5-kodachromes/

I've commented before on how much I love the look of those Kodachromes and I just can't figure out what makes them so special. They are incredibly sharp, the colors are slightly oversaturated, buy there's still more to it. Also gently caress you Kodak for not realizing that the world was moving to digital and not creating a way to produce Kodachrome in small quantities. Somebody should get on that, Kodak will be dead by the end of the year. They reanimated Polaroid film from the grave, how hard can it be.

I didn't know that it was possible for shots like that to happen so long ago, Kodachrome is pretty amazing. I will be hunting around for other pictures like that now.

Just read this interview with Christian Patterson about his book Redheaded Peckerwood. Have to say it sounds very interesting and the photos are quite evocative as well. A selection of photos from Redheaded Peckerwood Publisher's review

Haha, ok? Just saying, it's good work, just that that style has been done a million times over. The look and feel of the photos just seems unoriginal to me because of what I've seen a lot of. No need to get hostile.

Whelp you're right, there's no room for good photography if it's not 100% new and original.

I didn't insult anything at all, I just said it looked like that and to me it was unoriginal because I have seen it so much. I even said it was good work with interesting subject matter and technical prowess.

I'm with Bottom Liner on this one. I think they are great examples of lines and composition, but I just don't find them very interesting. I like photos that tell a story, and aside from the guy on the beach, I really don't get much out of these aside from the technical qualities, and the yellow dingy look isn't my favorite. I also think this is why I am terrible at architectural photography. I can see why others like them, though, and since they seem to be popular with a few goons here, they probably deserve to be in here. That being said, this is also about the 50th time this debate has come up in this thread, so here are some more photos! NatGeo Traveler's Annual Photo Contest is underway! As you can expect, there are some mediocre shots with some pretty fantastic ones thrown in. You can see every entry now instead of just "featured" ones every week, from the way they describe their gallery. Some of my favorites:  (if only there wasn't so much green, but lovely otherwise)

Haha. Guys, guys - No need to poo poo into each others lawns here. I must say the National Geo photos don't do much for me, but that's probably just because this genre of photography doesn't jibe that well with me. Devin Yalkins work left me pretty much "Holy poo poo!" though. So different strokes and all that. That said I wish I could be at least consistently as good as the above architecture/landscape photographer. Taking interesting pictures of stuff is hard.

I blame the Dusseldorf School of Photography and Stephen Shore for that aesthetic. That said, I absolutely love that style but I can understand that it might feel a bit repetitive.

I don't think those are banal at all. Gursky is banal. A photo of a random wall is banal. Those are well executed landscapes of an exotic location. That is not banal. Don't assume, and don't tell people not to post based on those assumptions.
