• I think a lot of the time these days people are so concerned about having the right camera and the right film and the right lenses and all the special effects that go along with it, even the computer, that they’re missing the key element.

    In the past month, we explored a range of iconic images, each with their own unique elements. However, what's fascinating is the common thread that runs through these portraits: each photograph uses light, form, and setting in a captivating manner to tell a compelling story. Whether it's the strong narrative elements in Ritts' "Fred with Tires," the timeless elegance in Avedon's "Dovima with Elephants," or the raw power captured in Sander's "Powerhouse Mechanic," each image draws us into a different world while maintaining these core artistic principles. Click on the thumbnails to view the images in a lightbox and select your favourite photo. We're keen to see which one stands out for you! Feel free to elaborate on your choice in the comments section.
