http://www.dayswithmyfather.com/ 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 HATE CARS posted:So I'd been following My Little Dead Dick back when it started (2006), but they broke up and it was bad and all the photos disappeared. Well I decided to take a look for them today and it looks like they're friends again and the photos are back up - http://www.hellopatpat.com/mldd_e.html The more I've gotten into photography the more I dislike this kind of work. I think its maybe the self indulgence, I don't know, or I'm getting older and young people are starting to poo poo me.

Looks like there is a great big post-processing gradient diagonally across the image, its annoying because I really like that photo and can't unsee it.

 I just came across David Chancellor's work while scrolling though my Tumblr feed, got some great stuff, particularly like the one above. He also has a set on his site of a large group of hungry Zimbabweans coming across a dead elephant, the series shows the carcass being reduced to bones in under 2 hours, amazing stuff. http://www.davidchancellor.com/docs/photos.php?id=2:14

Amazing portrait. An easy way to get that effect is with some orthochromic film, never EVER take a shot of your gf with it, brings out every wrinkle you can and can't see.

Anton Kusters got the opportunity to photograph a Yakuza family. http://www.japantimes.co.jp/text/fa20110908a1.html  I’m in the front seat, riding with Soichiro in his car on his way to Shinjuku. “One cuts off one’s finger to make a point”, Soichiro explains while driving. “Usually to show the sincerity of an apology after doing something wrong.” “You cut off a single digit of your own finger in a ceremonial way, while facing your boss, and then you present the severed finger on a folded napkin to him. It reinforces the power of your apology. It shows that you’re serious about what you’re saying.” http://www.antonkusters.com/category/yakuza/

Demon_Corsair posted:You are going to have to walk me through why these are awesome. They strike me as technically good snapshots. Especially the last one. I don't think the shots are intended to viewed as single images, but as part of an entire series with a singular intention.

Haught posted:I don't know that I have seen a photographer capture the feel of the Australian landscape quite so well maybe it's because he's Belgian. I also find it amazing that he takes these mostly around Canberra, which is potentially the dullest place on earth. And this is one of the most consistent Flickr streams I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing that, I've always had trouble shooting images of Australia that are truly Australian without being a terrible cliché.

If you're in or around NYC get over to the Met and check out the Eggleston exhibit they've got showing. It's mainly from the Guide book, with dye-transfer prints of all the well known shots.

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?

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.

Pompous Rhombus posted:Kinda off topic, but I'll take pretty much every opportunity I can to introduce people to said comedy podcast. These aren't from the episode I was listening to, but are a good introduction: Awesome, I'm always looking for more podcasts, never have enough variety. I've been really getting into wetplate recently, and I came across this guy Ian Ruthers who makes HUGE tintypes using his truck as the camera. Check out this video: https://vimeo.com/39578584  He's from LA and is going around the west coast in his truck shooting these great images, he's a couple of my favourites:   http://ianruhter.tumblr.com

They were probably shot on a large format camera with dry plates, which also helps with bringing out the rich details in their features. Rollei still make an Ortho film, it's quite slow at ISO25, but that's fairly typical.

They are amazing, it took me a few images to get my head around what was going on. More of a National Geographic style awesomeness, these are shot in the Nepalese Himalayas. There's around 80 in the set and is very much worth checking out: http://dementievskiy.livejournal.com/230885.html

http://www.jetelova.de/project/iceland-1992/quote:The Central Atlantic Shelf is an approximately 15,000 kilometer-long mountain range, mostly hidden at the bottom of the ocean. From the geological point of view it forms the dividing line between Europe and America. This is a seam along the place where millions years ago two continents were torn apart. Today we know that the Central Atlantic Shelf is part of a bigger system which circles the entire globe for nearly 70,000 kilometers. It goes from Iceland to the north between Spitzbergen and Greenland, continuing through the Arctic Ocean to the mouth of the Lena River in Siberia. In the southern direction, it goes from Iceland eastward along the southern end of Africa, continuing to the north through the Indian Ocean. Iceland is the only place where the Central Atlantic Shelf goes above the sea.

Mr. Despair posted:This is dumb Fair point now that I have a think about it. But I think it was knee jerk response to seeing the sponsors tab and thinking "eww, you're doing this to make some serious money?". It comes back to the point if you have money from these people and it doesn't have any conditions on what you can/can't do, then all that money does is give you freedom to do your work 24/7, rather than doing lovely work in between your day job and sleeping. I think we'd all be pretty stoked about getting cash to take the pictures you want to full time. And here I was getting all uppity about thanking sponsors while writing a loving research grant proposal, naming anything or anyone that has ever supported me.
