Cannister posted:He's got a really great "stranger" series on his flickr stream. Username's Benoit.P I believe. As far as I can tell the dude just goes to random people on the street or knocks on their door, tells them he wants to take their portrait and then they let him. It's very neat. This is impressing the heck out of me. I wish he would mention what kind of light setups he uses.

Reichstag posted:I'm writing the OP for a thread for this discussion to take place in, but I have to respond to this now: No, it doesn't. For reasons related to what I posted, and some rather larger ones, like talent (whatever it is). Taking a 100 photos a day doesn't make you a better photographer. Taking a 100 photos a day that challenge you in some way does. The subject matter of these 365-projects, despite being appealing on an individual basis can appear stagnate as a whole, but I think it's rather foolish to assume that they aren't growing in some way by doing them.

He's got some good techincal stuff, but the cop's posing in that image is really awkward/sloppy given the effort that went into lighting, costumes et al. Try throwing a punch and observe where the weight and momentum leave your head and back arm.

It's interesting that some of those photos were taken with intent on being contemporary. While a feeling of nostalgia isn't something I strive for when I take pictures, I do actively avoid dating them with the inclusion of anything modern, especially cars. I've 'missed' plenty shots due to unfortunately parked hyrbrids or someone talking on their cellphone. It's as if their inclusion would deconstruct the reality that I wish my photographs existed in.

I love wildlife photography, but unfortunately a lot of it is just par for the course. I understand the difficulty, skill and patience involved in just being able to shoot certain animals competently in the wild, so when guys like Nick Brandt come along, they blow me away.

Crewdson's approach is kind of neat and while I respect the dedication he has to his vision, the final pieces just feel like emotionally vacant versions of Hopper paintings. I think Di Corcia executed this sort of stuff throughout his career far, far better and without Crewdson's budgets.

365 Nog Hogger posted:I see what you mean, but imo they aren't very similar to Hopper at all. Hopper's scenes were invariably normal, oppressively so, whereas Crewdson's scenes are alien and strange. The similarity I see is the perspective, without the presence of the photographer, as well as a bit of the light-work. I think that's only because we associate those casts and shadows with hopper's dominating mastery of light being adopted into popular visual language in the states. I've admittedly never really read anything about Hopper or his intent, but to me I always felt the normality of his scenes ruminated a crushing sense of dissociation and detachment with the world. I might just be projecting my own emotions onto their work, but I get a lot of that out of Di Corcia (and Crewdson to a lesser extent).

I saw The Enclave a couple months back in Montreal and yeah, it's fantastic. If you have time, I'd suggest going back and watching the video installation in its entirety. It's somewhere in the neighbourhood of 30-40 minutes and standing in the middle of a room with screens all around me was one of the most intense and disorienting audio/visual experiences I've had in any sort of gallery.
