I don’t need to make up accounts to mock peoples use of ellipses. I’m fine doing that all by myself.

I see where it was intending to go, but for me the music is so hauntingly beautiful that it sort of ‘stole’ the essay. not sure where i am with the whole multimedia slideshow with prologue that seems more and more popular of late on the web, but i do appreciate that it is very much a contemporary thing that should be explored to its fullest. That said, we are after all photographers, or at least that is our main tool for the telling of tales and i guess we need to be careful to maintain balance in essays that are supported by other mediums so that they do not overpower sensitive imagery, or conversely, provide a crutch for work not quite strong enough to hang on its own.
Note 1: I re-watched the slides without the soundtrack and enjoyed it. Didnt blow me away, but certainly coherent and sensitively rendered.
Note 2: my screen name here is a direct reference to what i am called at the other place where apparently i am a troll and have been banned.It does however take you to my website where my name and contact details are there for all to see.

And the stirring music couldn’t be a more perfect fit. hmmmm.. I’m trying to think of something negative to say so as not to ‘coddle’ Mr. Guarracino… just nothing is coming to mind!

Brilliant and evocative, I will watch several times.. I am learning from this piece… learning and loving it. Bravo.

This essay is beautiful and I look forward to seeing much more in the coming months and years. What amazes me most is that you humbly showed up to our workshop on day 1 with about half these pictures created during your first day or so in Oaxaca…no attitude, a defined style, cohesive vision, and a sense of inner truth. The questions we ask ourselves about our existence and our purpose must be explored visually…I am excited that you have chosen to take it on and explore this theme. I’m sure with devotion to this project, the right moments will be revealed to you as you learn more about hope and despair, life and death. Without ideas behind our pictures, what are they?

Be well and keep it up. andy

When I read that it was created during a short DAH workshop I was amazed at the quality of the photography. It feels mature: you must have really connected to the place and its inhabitants. If you photographed digitally, I would love to see some examples of your work in colour as well as a look at your workflow i.e. what you use to get your “look”.

Similarly for the photographs of katharina hesse – not in order to copy a particular technique – but to expose different workflows to the audience here and to allow them to add to their own expertise; taking what is useful, adapting it as required, and making it their own.

Best wishes,

Mike R.

I have VERY high hopes for this place! The riveting discussion that’s taking place around Katharina’s image is a perfect example of how fabulous this place can be, and what a beacon of hope it already is! Honest discussion – deep discussion – is so rare these days, on the web and off, yet here it is, going gangbusters! All credit to you, Sir! So yes, let’s hope some of our stupid dreams do come true in 2009. For me, one of those dreams is that you and this place prosper and thrive! Cheers to that!

SMART PHOTOGRAPHER (you are…sorry, it is hard for me to call anyone stupid…please forgive)..

as i am sure you can imagine what we have going here will be a movable feast….many mistakes will be made, but i hope in the long run to at least be a part of a new photographic paradigm for the future….i have a feeling you would wish for the same..let’s break down some fences!!

surely we will not always agree…fine…good…healthy…damn, i just want to be able to take some photographs i care about and maybe sensitize at least one other person and provide a platform for others to do the same…does not seem like it should be so difficult and if we are not going to have some fun doing it, then what the hell?? in any case, i welcome your input on all levels…

all best wishes for you and yours in 2009….and it may be a REALLY STUPID IDEA, but let’s at least pretend that this will be the year each of us can have at least one little dream come true…

cheers, david

Thanks for your kind words, David! We have never met in person. It is one of my dearest hopes that we will meet, someday soon, as I admire you and your work, both photographic and educational, greatly!! You may know my work, I have linked to it under my real name, on your old blog, in the past. And I hope you do publish what I have to offer, as I have submitted one stupid image thus far and will submit more in the future. All the best to you, your family and friends in the New Year!

Not to harp on age, but damn if I could have done anything like this when I was 21. Overall, it’s not really my cup of tea (I’ve already seen way too many photos of semi-empty Mexican plazas in this lifetime) but there are some really great singular images lurking within (esp the holding page one). I was a bit disparaging in another thread in regards to this essay (really just to make a point) but now that I know how new this talent is and the short amount of time it was made in I’ve changed my mind considerably.

One thing is that I think both this and Panos’s edits could have used a tweak from another set of eyes. Both would have been potentially much stronger with a deletion of a small number of images and small shuffle of sequence- which the photographers themselves might have been too close to the work, too new to editing, or even too tired/overwhelmed to see. How much influence does DAH or Anton or whomever have before posting these essays? Should BURN have a defacto “editor” or is it best to let the photographer’s “sink or swim” on their own? One of the things you do as you grow as a photographer is to learn how to reach out and seek help and opinions from others, even though sometimes that help means letting go of certain things (ie your “personal vision”) and can be painful. But whenever I’ve consulted others and made tough cutting decisions on their advice my projects have always gotten tighter and more successful and actually even more personal and fulfilled.

Anyway, just some food for thought. Editing your work is the toughest aspect of the whole process I find, often even more so than taking the pictures in the first place. And I won’t even get into post-processing, another key aspect that will allow images/essays to stand or fall. My hope is that the rush to “publish” here doesn’t neglect these key aspects. Sometimes it’s good to put the work away for a while (a week, a month, a year?) and then come back to it with a fresh set of eyes.

The pictures that I most enjoyed are the dark ones with a tiny glimpse of what’s going on. Great.

You should all check Gustavo Santaolalla’s music not only from Babel and other soundtracks, but also from his tango “Bajofondo Tango Club”.

A tiny correction, “Quizas” should be written “Quizás”.

JOE…RAFAL…

ok, everybody please calm calm….both of you have a lot to say….i want you both right here!!!

unfortunately, i think we will come up with some sort of registration for comments…i would prefer to leave things open and uncensored…the way i had my blog…but, for whatever reason, the BURN door open has brought in a lot of random anonymous chat that seems to be not only unproductive, but misleading….i welcome dissent of course..but, it is nice to know from whence it comes….and i will never never understand all the anger and vitriol expressed by some about photographers and photographs….rockets in and out of Palestine i get as something to be angry about…out of focus pictures???? hmmmmmmmm…….

cheers, david

RAFAL…

i am a bit lost here…i have seen a couple of comments from DAH, which is not me…my initials but not how i sign pieces here…yes, you are one of the “originals” here, and i have nothing but respect…i am only waiting for your essay…

peace, david

JAMES DODD…

this is a good question….my plan is to publish essays as either totally complete or as at least completed chapters or sections of what may become a larger body of work….the soon to be “work in progress” will quite literally be the very beginning of a project …some essays take years to complete, others only a few days…if we were to use music as an example, this essay might be one song that would later become part of a whole album of related songs…or as Angelo clearly states here, this is “part one”….all of the essays presented so far are book projects in progress….none of them are the whole book…

for example, you will soon see Mike Young’s “Blues , Booze and BBQ”…this is a slide show representing his book which will be published by Powerhouse in the fall…to really see what Mike has done, you will need to see the finished book…so, the slide show is just that…a slide show….an essay in and of itself , yet with more to come between the hard covers…as i have said many times, a slide show is one thing, a gallery show another and a book another…all essays , but with different most immediate manifestations…

also coming soon will be Patricia Lay Dorsey’s “Falling Into Place”…this is a classic example of an online mentoring experience…Patricia started right on my old blog “road trips” and for those who were paying attention, she evolved right here in front of everyone…our new “work in progress” will make this process easier for everyone to see…

many thanks for your comment and question…

cheers, david

I honestly didn’t feel my comments on the previous two essays would have been accepted as they wouldn’t have been the complete love in that was happening… not that they would have been a complete and utter message of hate or anything, but the environment didn’t seem conducive to constructive criticism from unknown outsiders… and I’m still not sure whether it is?

I did enjoyed this essay and think its a great start, but this is where I have to question something? Is it now presented as a completed item or is it just a work in progress? if so what makes it different from the other work in progress section that is pending?
