I think Ryan experiments more than any other photographer I know, to great results. A shot like this makes you simply say: “wow”. For the record, I’m pretty sure that’s a self-portrait. Correction: it’s not him. He was lying down in the snow to take the shot.
Be sure to check out his long-running photo-blog: Ghostman on Third.
I randomly made a couple iPhone Wallpapers for myself this morning and thought I’d share them.
The first, Risk is a bit inspired by this Andy Rutdledge post (and corresponding desktop wallpapers), though my desire to remind myself to take risks is somewhat more personal in nature.
The second, Metal is based off a photo I took this morning with my phone for my hello mopho photo blog.
To put either on your phone, follow these simple instructions:
You might also enjoy this set I released at about the same time last year, along with a corresponding design tutorial.
I don’t remember how I came across Gustafsson’s site, but the work is fantastic. I love the somewhat vintage, yet over-processed style on a lot of the fashion/beauty shoots. Also, check out the the Travel section.
I’m definitely a fan of awesome splash pages so Pictory, the new venture by Laura Brunow Miner caught my eye. Laura was the former editor of JPG Magazine and also part of flickr at one point, so it’ll be fun to see what she’s come up with.
Photographer Nick Onken posted a new photo story and accompanying blog post about his recent trip to Iceland. The whole set is gorgeous as always. I love the way he uses natural light.
I love this set by David Mejias of Jared Polis’ new puppy—especially the doorway shot.
There is a hard-to-describe, but unifying epic quality to the tone and framing of Seth Smoot’s photos. They at once feel very familiar to me, and then, on further observation, hit me with the depth and detail he’s captured.
Take some of the examples above: I first notice the bison, and then the breadth of landscape and mountains behind them. It’s surreal, almost like two distinct photos in a strange harmony. In the portrait to the right, I love his lighting and the way he’s posed his subject, but I’m even more captured by the way the surroundings match the colors in the subject. Beautiful stuff.

I’ve followed Phil Coffman’s blog for a while and long been a fan of his photography, so it’s no surprise that I’m completely in love with this new iPhone Wallpaper series that he’s released.
Finally got around to taking some photos of the crazy office Andrew Hyde and I built. You can see the full set. I liked this particular shot for some reason.
Yes, I do draw on my desk with permanent marker. Also, you can see the photos I’m using for desktop backgrounds here and here.
I love the style of James P. Mores – both his portraits and landscape/editorial work. Click through the portfolio. So much goodness.

Kim Høltermand’s site has been sitting open on my desktop for a while. Absolutely wonderful, eerie images.

A fascinating look into the design of a high-end photography book for Dan Winters by designer Scott Dadich.

A varied portfolio unified by the color, tone, and depth of field Warmoeskerken often uses. I love this stuff.

Without a doubt, this is one of my dream vacations: ck/ck has worked his (her?) way across the country, to almost all of the lower 48 on a 66-day road trip, snapping random wide-angle pics along the way. I love the photos and style so much that I had trouble picking a few to highlight. The narration is excellent too. I just keep clicking.

A couple weeks ago I was bothered by how busy I’ve been and the fact that it has prevented me from properly picking up a camera, so I set a new goal: take a photo a day, with my cell phone. I’m calling it the Daily Interestingness.
It may be a bit presumptive of me to assume all of my photos will indeed be interesting, but the project has done a few things: it makes me think about photography again, it has put me on the look out for quirky objects and textures, and it’s a hell of a lot of fun.
One of best things of all is the use of a crappy cell phone camera, in my case: the iPhone. The constraints enforced by these inferior cameras make me think differently. I’m a firm believer that the right constraints will help you create better as opposed to having all of the options in the world available.
I want you to play too.
All of my photos get put in a set (linked above) on flickr and tagged with “daily interestingness”. I’d encourage you to do the same and we can all play along.
The Rules:
If you end up trying this out, or if you’re already doing something similar, post a link in the comments for us to check out.
A great list of things to do to remove a creativity block. It’s photography-oriented, but there’s some good ones for all creatives.
19. Quit your day job if you hate it and can live without it. People say it’s a bad time to start a new business or go in a new direction. On the flipside, I think it’s a great time if you’ve got a clear vision and a little cushion.
This might sound a bit conceited, but it takes a lot to get me to use someone else’s photo as my desktop background. This is my current laptop desktop. It’s a 30-second exposure taken by my friend Andrew Hyde as he followed a fellow fixie rider through the streets of Boulder. What a fantastic effect! Click through to his flickr account for the full image.
UPDATE: if you have a comment about the photo itself, be sure to click through to Andrew’s flickr account and leave it for him there.
I’ve posted about Nick Onken and his photography excellence before. This new personal series of his was shot one day at the Mojave Salt Flats. He consistently wows me with the ways he uses light.
The way photographer Tim Simmons uses light is simply amazing. It’s at once eerie, yet familiar. I’d love to know more about his process.
An ambitious photo project by photographer Simon Høgsberg. He took pictures of pedestrians from the same spot over 20 days and patched them into one longer 100 meter image. Click through to his site for the full experience. Some of the moments he captured are really fun.
