I think visually taking an audience into the imaginary world of someone else out there is really exceptional and requires someone with a really vivid imagination. Very strong work. Hugs ==> L.

Thanks for the link, I read the article. I’m not only inspired by Photographers, I also rely on writers and musicians to reframe the ideas of my mind.

Shine on,

Justin

Max, thanks, and yes, I was very happy to win the Lucie scholarship (Luceo is a different one), it will allow me to work on another long term project about Russia, not related to this one about boys.

And a small comment about the education (again). I never had any grad school where I could study practical photography. What I have beeing studying is THEORY. With themes that are totally not related to my practice and hardly can be applicable to it. Studying theory has nothing to do with making own projects. Moreover, writing an academic article or thesis differs from writing a statement. etc. So, I do not have much to put ‘in the ocean’.

It would be lovely from my side to reply to all comments, but unfortunately right now I have the period full of deadlines, so, I can just wish luck to everybody!

All the best,
Daria

There is a lovely essay in ‘The Sun’ writers magazine this month which deals with dissonance (as opposed to discord).

Framer “I just think the visual employed is one I’ve seen far too often before”

I’m not sure what you are getting at here.

I just wanted to say that this essay is one of the nicest pieces that I’ve seen in a long time. And it’s nice to see someone testing the limits of documentary genre and do it so well in a haunting, mystical story with such strong images.

I saw it earlier this year when it won the Luceo scholarship and it made me sit up. It’s nice to see a longer edit – I get to see more of the photos :-)

All the best and I hope you win

Max

I just think the visual employed is one I’ve seen far too often before (a criticism I also point at my own bus photographs, as it happens).

While I appreciate well made photography, just as I appreciate well made painting, I also don’t feel the need to heap praise upon either. Thinking everything is wonderful just devalues the meaning of wonderful. When I’m looking at EPF finalists, just as when I look at e.g. Magnum photographers, or the Turner Art Prize, the cache of the title raises the bar and I expect to find something amazing. I didn’t find that in this essay.

On some pictures I felt a little lost but it could be that I just I’ve yet to put enough thought into it. Because I’m a Photographer too I don’t just glance at other people’s work and cast it aside, I go back and look again and again reminding myself that photography is a house with many churches and I learn something each time. It isn’t necessary for every note to be perfect, in fact scales have a dissonant chord which makes the next note sound much sweeter. I enjoyed “Ivan and the Moon”.

Michael, frankly, i not only never said that, but you should be ashamed to even imply that I consider anyone here in such a degrading way….

shame on you michael….

this whole discussion has been reduced to a kindegarden….and my defense of this work was just that, a defense, not an an insult to others…

THAT IS EXACTLY WHY I WILL NOT WRITING ANYTHING ANY MORE….

bob

Sorry.

And I’ll just go on to note that, even though I may be incapable of appreciating anything remotely different from what I do (whatever that is), it seems that many of those here most open to art photography are the most critical of this piece.

But if I may offer a bit of constructive advice for the artist, I’d say pack up everything you learned about art and photography in grad school, put it in a box within a box within a box, then chain it up good and toss it into the deepest depths of the deepest ocean. Nothing sucks the life out of art like grad school. Is anything even close?

I agree about number six though. Excellent photo.
