The Last Stand - Marc Wilson

I stumbled across this beautiful large format photography - 'The Last Stand' by British Photographer Marc Wilson is a series of haunting landscapes showing remnants from the 2nd world war shot in the UK and Europe.

New Years Day shoot

Up early this morning to shoot portrait of friend and artist Rob Pearce in his garden studio in jakarta. A very nice start to the year -  followed by a good 'fry up'. Simple lighting set up with 1 large soft box up high to my right. Happy New Year !

Jakarta at night

For a couple of months now I've been mentoring 3 indonesian high school kids who are shooting photographs for a book on Jakarta. Its been quite a challenge at times, but also inspiring and a reminder to me of when I first picked up a camera. They each have their own interests + approaches, all very different. Last meeting we were talking about going out and shooting some night shots - I was quite surprised this morning when I received in my dropbox a series of photographs of prostitutes. The following 3 images are my favourites - all shot by Nicholas Hilman

Fave Photo books # 1 - Seydou Keita

I love this book - published in 1997 by Contemporary African Art Collection. Seydou Keita's portraits are a remarkable record of Mali society between 1948 and 1977. Mostly shot on a 13x18 large format camera.
