  1. Nice to see folk sticking some stuff up finally haha Maybe try and put a decent selection of photos up though rather than just one and a link, works better that way I think.

  3. Am I the only one who thinks this spot looks shit? Surely there's somewhere better for you to do it..
  4. Abandoned village Loving the tunnel shot loseryouth
  5. Got a scanner last week so I rescanned the roll of kodachrome I shot ages ago, I always knew the lab ones were a bit sketchy but didn't quite realise how bad they were till I compared them with my ones. I don't even know anything about scanning film.. Here's some other slide shots from a trip I took last weekend.

  7. I thought there was room for another photography thread where you can share the work of particular photographers. Favorite flickr flicks and the great pictures thrads in ch0 are more geared towards a series of unconnected photos from all over and I don't want to fuck up the flow in the photography thread. Post a selection of photos from someone whose work you think is exceptional, whether it's Cartier-Bresson or some next flickr person. Try and include a bit of text about them as well. I thought of making this thread after reading a really interesting book over the last couple of days and seeing an equally interesting exhibition yesterday. The book was on William Allard who was best known for shooting photo essays for national geographic magazine. From their website: "The son of a Swedish immigrant, photographer and writer William Albert Allard was born in 1937 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He studied at the Minneapolis School of Fine Arts and the University of Minnesota. Allard is a photographer of people. One of the few photographers of his generation whose entire professional body of work is in color, he has contributed to National Geographic Society publications as a staff, freelance, and contract photographer and writer since 1964. Over the course of his career at National Geographic, Allard has contributed as a photographer to some 40 National Geographic magazine articles, as well as to a number of National Geographic books. His stories for the magazine have included "Rodeos: Behind the Chutes," "Untouchables," "Bohemian Rhapsody," "Welcome to Bollywood," "Thailand's Urban Giants," and "Hutterite Sojourn." He has also been published in most major United States and European publications and has photographed around the world. Allard has published several critically acclaimed books, including Vanishing Breed; The Photographic Essay; A Time We Knew: Images of Yesterday in the Basque Homeland; Time at the Lake: A Minnesota Album; and Portraits of America. A former contributor to Magnum Photos, Allard's prints appear in many private and museum collections. Allard divides his time between homes in Missoula, Montana, and in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains near Charlottesville, Virginia, with his wife, Ani, and their son Anthony." The book was called William Allard The Photographic Essay, you should try and have a look at it because the writing is excellent and provides a really vivid insight into just how passionate and talented the guy was/is plus the reproductions are great as well, a lot better than they look on the computer. some examples of his work website: http://www.williamalbertallard.com/index.php audio interview: http://thecandidframe.blogspot.com/2011/01/candid-frame-105-william-albert-allard.html
  8. Lucky find with that stash of light bulbs, bet you fun with them. I don't think I'll ever fully grow out of breaking things.
  9. Such an amazing find. I hope they produce a book or get the exhibition over the atlantic sometime.
  10. Picked a few different beers up tonight just for a change. The Zatec and Casteel were both nice, but not really anything special, but the Tullibardine was really good, a bit expensive though.
  11. I want a show like this if I'm gonna pay to see some cunt rapping http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3Z-7J9A_CY
  12. I don't give a shit about hardcore or any off that so I enjoyed the performance, much better than some next rapper standing about droning on. After too many disappointing rap shows I decided just to keep it to speakers/headphones. Would go and see the wolf gang though.
  13. Re: Favorite Flickr Flicks "I came home one day and found the council had collected some of the burned out stolen cars from the area near where I live. They were dumped by the side of the road ready to be taken away later. " I pass this fairly often. I laughed when I saw 'we're over' written over it..:lol:
