I also like "Fear of Irrelevance."<br /><br />It should be said that I'm much more conventional in my predilections than you are, and so my opinion is probably of little value in your growth as a make of images.NThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16365287012451209505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083330322113258405.post-74166663739498863852010-03-14T08:56:41.977-07:002010-03-14T08:56:41.977-07:00Hello Patrick, As iv pretty much commented as we&#...Hello Patrick, As iv pretty much commented as we've been going along, I won't write an essay here. If I had to choose 4 out your bunch.... hmmm<br /><br />Set1: I quite like the abstract nature of shot 2. The tattoo and teeth are interesting compositionally. Because you can't see the eyes, the notion of stranger seems re-inforced. Shot 3, you fave is also interesting for the reasons you give.<br /><br />Set2: Shot 1<br /><br />Set3: Shot 2, for pure bizarreness!<br /><br />Résumé photo, I like. I would just rotate the photo about 2 degrees clockwise to even out the horizon.<br /><br />The last set, Not really a fan of the macro stuff, possibly because of over-exposure to intimate body part work recently. <br />I like the very last photo. The Caravaggio style lighting, posture and facial expression are interesting.<br /><br />I'm just finishing my project, it's rather conceptual/contemporary.<br />I will be posting blogs on it, Monday-Tuesday. I just hope people understand my concept!<br /><br />HarpsHarpreet Kharahttp://www.harpreetkhara.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083330322113258405.post-90456676032497098902010-03-14T07:29:04.541-07:002010-03-14T07:29:04.541-07:00I met Nan Golding a bunch of years ago in the late...I met Nan Golding a bunch of years ago in the late 80's, when I myself was a budding photographer and she was in Copenhagen to present her show.<br /><br />I really like her style and her way of seeing things.<br /><br />Speaking of photographing people we know, did I ever point you to <a href="http://hirsch.se/" rel="nofollow">Walter Hirsch</a>, one of my favorite Swedish photographers?<br /><br />Also, check out <a href="http://www.anderspetersen.se/anderspetersen_new.html" rel="nofollow">Anders Petersen</a>. A totally different style from Hirsch.<br /><br />Petersen spends a lot of time getting to know people before taking the first shot. "Cafe Lehmitz" is a classic over here.<br /><br />/j.joxumhttp://flushdance.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3083330322113258405.post-38996743127508992432010-03-13T18:50:06.405-08:002010-03-13T18:50:06.405-08:00Well, I'll tell you my 3 favorites, but you ma...Well, I'll tell you my 3 favorites, but you may get depressed with it. I just chose them because they were enjoyable to look at, not for any interpretive art reasons:<br />1. The stronger farm woman. Looking upward into a glaring light, unafraid, determined to succeed. Especially compared to the other farm woman.<br />2. You in a suit by the pine trees. Jaunty. Comparing this to the little I have learned about you from your blog.<br />3. You holding the goose-neck lamp. Don't know why.<br /><br />The more brutal photos of you and of the liquor woman are not photos I would drive very far to look at. I am sure they are good, artwise, just not for me. I suppose they could be saying that we can survive and be happy even with a few nicks and scratches. I do admire you for doing them.Crashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170011539472789212noreply@blogger.com
