I’m much more accustomed to seeing a little shine in prints but I finally fell in love with it. Well I left it at the shop, I’ve got more pressing things to pay back and because the book is utterly safe in the bookshop nobody round here buys those sort of books, only dribble like “Mastering photography once and for all”.
What I really found immensely interesting was how strong the contrast in the prints were. The blacks were real black without any detail at all, big fat blacks and film grain everywhere, marvellous!! Quite refreshing from all the farting around these days with digital trying to find detail everywhere in the blacks, highlights and techniques like HDR.

As with most being in the limelight and or cutting edge probably won’t last long but nonetheless a worthwhile journey. Who knows it cold be Obama giving Putin a peck on his cheek…….people would love that.

And I agree, to some extent, except that not all of us take the time to be craftsman. Twitter isn’t literature. Each have their purpose. So, I think there is still room for the long-form well-crafted piece, and for the craftsman who spends a lifetime honing their craft (they used to be called professionals) and still room for those known entities that deliver it consistently (they used to be called magazines), although I certainly see those lines becoming blurred. Certainly socialization/democratization/whatevertherighttermis of content is a good thing but if only “popular” work is seen and promoted, everything would be kitty’s in bomber jackets. So the cloud becomes the arbiter. I don’t know if that’s the complete answer.

Put together some work, pay a gallery about 400 to 1000 dollars for a 2 week viewing and you along with another 2 or 4 peers have a show on. These are on in their tens of thousands every week and are mainly seen by family and friends. Advertise on a site, blog any social media and to become part of that huge information collective. Some work gets better exposure than others but that is not the point it is that huge juggernaut of producers and consumers that creates or new world not a few chosen individuals. Steve Jobs is done and dusted the products he helped to create are evolving and changing. It was not Jobs that changed dictated the terms it is the consumer/audience as a entity and their responses that implement change …………………and that is the great part about where we travel.

Participants on sites like twitter are getting it right they inform,people react or enact upon the information and then get on with either something else or expand upon what has been put into place. There is no need for old style editors, so called professional journalists etc, things aren’t bogged down by silly copyright laws or bureaucratic nightmares. Something gets done and discarded when no longer relevant
………..it is not about a individuals job or career it is about all of us.

i ended up really loving that fake watch..just as easy to love fake as real i guess…anyway, true to form it stopped ticking pretty early on…i might have lasted a couple of months…i did not know you were an old Road Trips reader, although i am sure you have said so…hard to keep track..well, come to think of it considering Burn is out there on some sort of international scene, we still pretty much have the same broke down bar here in comments that we have always had..my stories a la Road Trips do not happen because i want to let others tell their stories…but maybe i will bring back a version with the new website where multiple things happening will be easier…and besides that my instagrams are a new type of diary anyway…i looked at my contact sheets from the instagrams…damned fascinating…real snapshots..not trying too hard..loose…something good about it..honest…unadorned…anyway, yes amateurish activity that is a lot of fun and honestly what is really going on around me at any given time…i have never “gone anywhere” to take one of my instagrams…i just take out the camera and take a picture..rarely moving from my seat….actually even my so called pro stuff is not far from that either..but, shhhhhhh

cheers, david

The blog was a long time coming, for all those singles, miniseries and works in progress that I can’t find a proper way to show on my website… it was one of those things that spent an eternity on the to-do list…

As for the cats, besides the four we have living indoors we now have three kittens with their mom in the backyard… so you can imagine the number of pictures I have… I have to exercise control not to post too many of them…

p.s.
I’m quite familiar with http://nocatsallowed.blogspot.com

I find it innovative, forward looking, hopeful, riding the leading edge, quality work (including from at least one photographer who has appeared here), not mired in despondency … but opinions obviously vary. It makes me wonder though what you are doing here if this is your view of innovative concepts in publishing in general, and specifically photography? And what exactly is the delivery device for the general world audience today? In five years, in ten? What risks taken today will lead the path for tomorrow? Are you that sure? It’s a new world to be sure and it will take a thousand failures, or more, for every success? What then is the future? Do you know? I guess I am just a big fan of those who keep trying. The alternative kinda sucks.
