    Try to define photography. Some photos are planned for. Some are staged, posed and structured. Then there are the photos that just happen, a fleeting moment that will forever be perfect. Just because it happened and because it is life, and someone…Read More

    • First time I’ve seen this eye-catching photo and it immediately struck a chord! The scene seems almost staged and has a cinematic quality, appearing as though it could be part of a movie. I love how the main subjects – the boy and the policeman – are isolated against the “extras”, apart from the man on the right glancing down and smiling at them.…Read More

    In Germany, you did not buy something second-hand—it is a social necessity to look successful. For me, it is not. Canada offered an interesting contrast. It had second-hand shops in the American idiom. I saw in the second-hand store windows the icons of Americanism in a picturesque jumble. I displayed the American dream on posters. I showed old cars, new cars, worn cars, people in cars, and the decay of the car—more as a phenomenon than as social criticism.

    • Thank you for sharing, Jako, and for taking the time to contribute to our Photo Digest. Interestingly, we’ve already featured “Pepper No. 30” in the Fine Art Group, but we find your write-up more engaging.

      • Always a pleasure! Completely forgot about the post in Fine Art. My apologies. I discussed the pepper with my colleagues, and it sort of stuck, and ended up in this post. 🙂
