Here's a guy. http://www.bryanschutmaat.com/ and check out "Grays the Mountain Sends." For background, he is documenting mining towns in the American West. I think the mix of portraits, landscapes, and interiors in quite effective.

Those are great. By halfway through I was thinking "where are the women?", then bam, right at the end after you think it's over, that bright red hair.

Holy poo poo. Clicked the link without context and it honestly took me about a minute to work out that those weren't four separate photos. Some of his other stuff is pretty great too, definitely worth clicking around on that site for a bit.

And French-born, Beijing-based photo preservationist Thomas Sauvin is the first to say he's really not trying to rescue all the world's photos, let alone China's, let alone Beijing's.

Actual foliage will render pink, while anything simply camouflaged will not. Was used in reconnaissance, but seems like it's made Moss' career at this point. This isn't even particularly new material, but it's been goddamned everywhere lately. Can't get enough of it, though, and I'd kill to see the exhibition.

Haven't read the whole thread so I don't know if he has been mentioned, but I was lucky enough to visit the Edward Burtynsky exhibition 'Oil' in London last year. In person it is mind blowing how much detail is contained in one of those large prints. My personal favourite from the exhibition is this one:

This is semi related, I just watched this documentary about the sex trade in Calcutta. This woman goes in and gives cameras to a bunch of kids who are children of prostitutes. They take some cool photos, end up getting exhibited in Amsterdam. It's an interesting and different kind of documentary. I can recommend it. "Born Into Brothels: Calcutta's Red Light Kids" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0388789/

I figure this is good place to ask this question. I've been given some cash for my birthday to buy some photography books, and I was looking at hopefully picking up some more seminal type books from the big guys in photography. I have books from Martin Parr, Alex Soth, Diado Moriyama, Steven Shore, William Eggleston, Vivian Mayer and a couple of others I can't remember off the top of my head. I was thinking about getting Robert Frank "The Americans", but I couldn't really come up with anything else easily, any suggestions?

Spedman posted:I figure this is good place to ask this question. The Americans is an excellent book! Definitely get it if you can. I would also suggest Walker Evans, Andre Kertesz, Edward Weston, Ansel Adams, Alex Webb, Friedlander, Robert Adams. Just to name a few that might interest you.

I wanted to get that, but £200 is pretty steep for a book. Is there any other way of seeing the photos from that exhibition without owning this book?

Not that I am aware of, maybe try a library?

Thanks for the all the suggestions people, I ended up getting Robert Frank "The Americans", an overview of Edward Weston's work and a book on alternative photography techniques and history.

If the masks were just a bit more photorealistic to really give that uncanny valley feeling, those would be the best thing ever.
