LSD

 

                   

        This is a photo taken by Benoit Paille. It is titled "LSD" which I feel is deemed appropriate seeings as how the caption was so beutifully typed by someone who was clearly intoxicated. I do love this photo for it's intermingling of nature and the astronomical beauty of the stars. I think the reds of the leaves correlates well with the dark blue sky and stars.

MICHELANGELO ANTONIONI’S FILM CLASSIC AND PHOTOGRAPHY

                 This article is about the film ‘Blow-Up’ by Michelangelo Antonion and how he used the photographic ideas from famous photographers and incorporated those ideas into the making of the movie. Blow Up tells us about a fashion photographer by the name of Thomas, played by David Hemmings, who secretly photographs two lovers in a park and then later enlarges the picture believes he has coincidentally documented a murder. I like how he went out to study fashion photographers in their work while preparing to create this movie. I think photographs seen in this article are really good for the time and era they were taken in - this one is my favorite because it creepy and in a sense dark, which gives the movie some angle.

#FF: 13 Aperture Summer Open Photographers On Instagram - Aperture Foundation NY

                                   

                  On July 17, Aperture held a summer expedition to view photographs by artist outside the contemporary demographic. I thought this was a good idea because it was a good opportunity for other photographers to get to have their work viewed by a broader spectrum. Executive director Chris Boot, chose a select few photographs to display on the walls. He mentions that by doing this project he could see that for photographers today, "serious photography, above all, was characterized by a sense of joy." This particular photograph, among them, was perhaps my favorite. The photographs were selected from Instagram which has grown into a widely popular social media used by nearly everyone with a smart phone. This photograph was my favorite displayed because I enjoyed the vintage technique used in taking the photo and the actual photo itself - I also love how the colors all correlate into the shot.
