It’s OK

“Once a photographer has learned a few ‘tricks’, they are presented with a choice: keep chasing gimmicks or formulas, or look deeper. It’s OK to be lost. It’s OK not to know what you’re doing. It’s OK to fail. It’s absolutely fine to feel insecure about your work. In fact, all of these things are very cool because they state very loudly that a person is trying, striving, exploring and searching in a very personal sense…. call it what you will.”

Thomas Stanworth



Lost Highway – David Lynch

Last week I watched David Lynch' Lost Highway. Something really different, that opens up your mind with it's weirdness. The story can't be summarized. The images are somewhat hallucinating, dark and somewhat disturbing.

I thought it a great idea that such a movie could be produced in Hollywood, but then I read that a French company financed the film. Patricia Arquette is fantastic, the music is great too.

Barbara van Schaik

I love the deadpan style and the dry sense of humor of Dutch photographer Barbara van Schaik.

Blake Andrews

Blake Andrews, with Dirtyharrry probably the photographers with the most eccentric photographic style of the Un-Public aka in-public photographers. Author of great blog.

Mostly analog, but not afraid of digital...
