“This is the guy that comes on a bicycle”

]]> What better way to spend Monday night than watching a documentary about a photographer? I just watched Bill Cunningham New York about the New York Times street-fashion photographer known for riding around on his bike for decades. I recommend it.

TimeScapes

]]> I’m still reading about how it was produced, but “TimeScapes” from photographer Tom Lowe looks absolutely amazing.

Looks like he shot everything with RED. I surely can’t imagine this film being shot a few years ago. Goes to show the advances that are being made in videography technology.

I can’t tell if this is being released in theaters or what, but some of the behind the scenes stuff is just as stunning as the resulting footage. Just wow.

Jason Hawkes

]]> The tagline on Jason Hawkes website reads simply “aerial photography.” That’s true, I suppose, but it hardly seems to describe why you should pay him any attention. Hawkes shoots landscapes touched by humankind and clearly inspired by some other greats: You see Edward Burtynsky in his shots of Hong Kong apartment blocks and an English landfill, Vincent Laforet in his urban ariels and David Maisel in some of his more abstract shots. A nice cross-section of Hawkes’ photos is featured in this recent set from The Big Picture.
