Highly detailed painted light photographs. Visually complex, and vibrant photographs made from long exposures and, often, composite montages of multiple photos in planned arrays, by Brian Matthew Hart. His website is minimalistic in form and content, but the images are well worth a look. Details are sparse.

Halloween 1956 courtesy of Lee Ann Root Happy Halloween! BTW, this is not one of the currently fashionable pseudo-period retro-chic photos. This is the real thing.

I [more...]]]> http://www.photographyuncapped.com/how-to-overcome-photo-inertia-during-the-summer/curiosa/feed/ 11 http://www.photographyuncapped.com/source-of-swine-flu-from-mexico-found-photo-documentary-evidence-photographyuncapped-exclusive/curiosa/ http://www.photographyuncapped.com/source-of-swine-flu-from-mexico-found-photo-documentary-evidence-photographyuncapped-exclusive/curiosa/#comments Mon, 27 Apr 2009 19:14:16 +0000 onthewind http://www.photographyuncapped.com/?p=1790
Last Updated: 14 October, 2009 You won't read this on the 'mainstream media' sites. Our secret whislteblower has revealed photo documentary evidence of the source of the H1N1 Swine Flu pandemic from Mexico. The CDC hasn't got anything on us!

The universe appears to be a self-reflecting sphere with the 'self' at the center. All you can see, and therefore photograph, is a reflection of yourself. Here I am 'in cabinet'.

Need a photography project? Stumped for new ideas? Looking for inspiration? Things are looking up! This very morning there was an unexpectedly gray cloud cover when I got up. While not especially photogenic (from where I stood, visually and emotionally?) it reminded me of another morning sky which I shot from this location.

Do confusing thoughts about the meaning of Modern Art keep you up at night and prevent you from leading a rich and fulfilling life?
