Thanks to Alex Wise for the heads up. Some photos of a young Barak Obama are being exhibited, sorry to say for us Aussies, it is in California, but there are some great photos on the web site linked below.
M+B.
Some excellent and original 3D photos that have been turned into animated GIF files. The page is slow to load, but well worth the wait.
I really don’t know how to best explain it, so I will just say, it really is worth having a look. Street photography at its best and most unusual.
There are some very good tips for the budding portrait photographer in the article below. Tip number 1 actually sounds like a dating service. I am not real good with the portrait genre of photography, so i might try some of this myself.
Taking great photos of women relies hugely on great understanding. It is vital to understand your subject, whatever you are photographing, in order to get the best out of them, and no more so than with women. Women are probably the most self-critical people to photograph, and I should know, I’ve photographed over 10,000 of them throughout my career! Even models think they are fat, so there is no hope for us mere mortals!
Quite a depressing look at the houses left abandoned in Detroit. Some terrific photos though.
Once again, the Boston Globe’s Big Picture site comes up with the goods. Cheese rolling, it sounds like such fun! Holy cow! (sorry about that pun) See if you can see Borat. 🙂
Cooper’s Hill Cheese-Rolling
Last Monday, May 25th, the annual Cooper’s Hill Cheese-Rolling and Wake was held near Gloucester, England. In a tradition that dates back at least 200 years, possibly much longer, groups of fearless competitors chase an 8 pound (3.5 kg) round of Double Gloucester Cheese down an extremely steep and uneven hill, with a 1:1 gradient in some parts. Thousands of spectators gather to watch the five downhill and four uphill races, and to celebrate the winners and console the losers afterward. Injuries such as broken bones and concussions are commonplace, but the event continues to grow in popularity. The winner of each race is awarded the delicious round of cheese they were chasing.

Arthur Mole’s Living Formations
Almost a century ago and without the aid of any pixel-generating computer software, the itinerant photographer Arthur Mole (1889-1983) used his 11 x 14-inch view camera to stage a series of extraordinary mass photographic spectacles that choreographed living bodies into symbolic formations of religious and national community.
