Interview: Stephen Shore - The Brooklyn Rail →
You have to make a distinction between clarity and sharpness—sharpness is a technical thing. If it’s in focus, and you have a good lens, it’s sharp. But in two sharp pictures, one can have a sense of clarity that the other one doesn’t have. And it actually will look more vivid. This is simply an extension of what I was saying about space. If you become aware of the sounds in the room and the...

Style
Style, photographically speaking, seems to be a recognisable ‘look and feel’ that, over time, and when viewed through a body of work, is consistent enough to be identifiable as ‘by’ and ‘of’ that particular photographer.  I feel like I’m moving towards something of a style, or at least that I have a type of image in my head that I want to trap, but...

On Capturing Photographs
So, here’s the way it works, as far as I can fathom. I move around my immediate environment, watching the visual relationships between objects (a classification within which I will include people) change as my shifting viewpoint, and the shifting positions of those objects, continuously rearranges them. At various moments in time, I see a particular arrangement or alignment of objects,...

Blogging = Theft ?
A couple of days ago I received a comment on one of my Flickr photos from someone whose work I had blogged here on Feeding The Beast. They were angry that I’d ‘stolen’ their work and ‘featured’ it here without asking permission.  I’d simply used the ‘Share on Tumblr’ bookmarklet to post the photo and, as always, provided proper links and...

Leica M8 Field Test, Iraq →
jstn: An actual photojournalist tears apart the M8 with many examples. I liked this in part because I think it’s a shame that Leica has neglected to become the Leica of the digital era, and in part because just this guy’s experience wearing the camera around his neck tells me more about it than the typical velvet-pillow treatment of your average review. It seems pretty obvious who Leica is...
