A photograher’s ability for composing a visual canvas that overcomes the most dire of situations is quite a gift, one that David Balhuizen has and exploits, in a wide range of topics.
Showing: Hurricane Ivan picture that looks more like an art installation than post-disaster capture.

Thuss Farrell is a NYC photographer who makes a simple statement on his website: “Photography is fun”.
Dyptics present most of his base work throughout — which already spell out how capable he is to do self-editing and generate story-like visual assortments. Each set giving mutual credit to both selected pictures. When taking so many shots – easy to instantly see the good takes – definitely harder to single out the excellent one. It demands a special ability to really objectivize your work. That’s why photographers do some of their best work under the influence of xtra gifted art directors.

Interesting find, perhaps an experiment in opposite, this one more like macro photography of people mostly on beaches or around pools by Massimo Vitali. One would think that it’s about capturing leisure moments.. how about a study on social conformity?

Oh my! Just visited the most incredible land of liluput via the work of Thomas Doyle. In his own words: “My work mines the debris of memory through the creation of intricate worlds sculpted in 1:43 scale and smaller.”
If you have no clue what this ratio means, head-on to see for yourself. Not only are all the characters sculpted in that size, they all bear tangible emotions and are staged in mini-parcels of land, houses, furniture.. all breath taking.

A big fan of miniature photography — there is no end to the sense of awe I get from looking at these minuscule self-contained stories.

Overcast by cyan and pink shadows, even out of focus, John Gripenholm explodes the confines of commercial photography and extends the craft towards an unknown territory, with both edgy and poetic staging and compositions.


Wanna see what creating for yourself a powerful niche for your skills and services? Peter Schafrick photography is such a paramount example of liquid journeys taken to the hilt.
How does one do that? Any clues?

Well it seems a “retoucher” is involved. Who gets credit for what? Schafrick or MacLeod? The photographer or the retoucher? What do you make of that? Post it.
