Swimming Pool

Swimming Pool is a photo essay by Maria Svarbova and was shot at the Malina pool in Bratislava, Slovekia.

_______

I picked these four shots for the intemporality of the dreamy turquoise palette + absence of contrast except for those punchy red, orange and yellow details.

Slanted #26

Slanted #26 – New York + Special Edition NYC

_______

Slanted (David) took oneself to New York (Goliath) in September 2015 to meet the generation of designers, typographers and artists who witness and shape the transition of the city.

They produced comprehensive studio portraits and video interviews which provide a vivid and up-to-the-minute picture of the scene.

Mommy Boy

Another stunning photographic series titled: Mommy Boy by Chang Chieh. The staging, clothing line featured and colorization are out of this world. Unique!

A day in the life of Lord Vader

Pawel Kadysz created a project to post 365 photos of Lord Vader’s real day to day life. And they are hilarious.

Merching out / BGD

Here’s what I have been working on and off since the end of my 100 days of the BGD project. If you remember – I had mentioned wanting to create products with the best scenes. I am really pleased to show you the first instalment.

_______

One of the challenges – is having to enlarge the size of the canvas holding the picture – to meet theprint requirements. I have been tinkering by adding what I think turned out quite well – coloured framed.

If you wish to view different colour frames and sizes – thereyago.
