The Silver Lining

National Geographic International Photography Contest 2009

See the rest here!

Love these two:

Nazroo, a mahout (elephant driver), poses for a portrait while taking his elephant, Rajan, out for a swim in front of Radha Nagar Beach in Havelock, Andaman Islands. Rajan is one of the few elephants in Havelock that can swim, so when he is not dragging timber in the forest he is used as a tourist attraction. The relationship between the mahout and his elephant usually lasts for their entire lives, creating an extremely strong tie between the animal and the human being.

I was in the front car of the short subway between Pudong and the Bund, and was treated to the wonderful spectacle of an oncoming train in the tunnel’s changing light show. I put my camera up to the window and shot as fast as possible to get this image. (Photo and caption by Gail von Bergen Ryan) #

Some BTS video on the making of Fantastic Mr. Fox

Really want to see this.

“The movie uses stop-motion animation—a laborious way to make a film. But amid the low-tech tedium of posing puppets for 621,450 separate still frames, the filmmakers used a digital workflow system to make things go smoother.

…The crew used Nikon D3s not only to shoot the movie itself, but also to stream video from the movie sets onto a network that Anderson and other crew members could monitor from anywhere.”

A couple photos from Jimmy & Kate’s engagement shoot over the weekend.  My first time in Charleston, SC (aka Chucktown!).  These two were a blast to photograph and I definitely plan on going back up to Charleston one of these days.  Thanks guys!

In reference to a photo shoot of a client's new office building...

clientsfromhell:

Client: We love our new building and we thought it would be great to have pictures of it in all four seasons from the exact same angle.

Photographer: That sounds like a really cool project.

Client: Great! So what are the chances having those ready for our convention next month?

HA! This tumblr is gold.

I think the bride has this shot when she throws the assistant in the trunk at the end of the movie…i think.  Good observation, though! slackmo: halvgal & others Jules & Vincent and The Bride all have moments like this, too, no? Never thought of Tarantino as having a signature shot. Great catch, folks.

Kendrick Lamar, “Wanna be Heard”

Yesterday I posted some material from Kendrick Lamar.  Found this gem today.  SO dope!

Good hip-hop is out there if you look hard enough!

BTS video of Annie shooting the new Vogue spread.  Kind of wish they had spent less time talking about Lady Gaga and more time explaining how they shot the James Moody image at the Blue Note.  Oh well, still cool to see the work and the amount of people it takes to put together a series like this.

NY Times: Andy Warhol Polaroid Series

adamwritesgood:

“There is a small gem of a show at Danziger Projects right now, featuring a little-known trove of Polaroids by Andy Warhol of famous athletes. They were commissioned by one collector in the late 1970s and early ’80s. The simplicity of Warhol’s method — straightforward portraits shot with the Big Shot camera — gives the tiny images (4 1/4″ x 3 3/8″) a purity and sincerity that belies the radiance and aura of greatness coming from the sitters. Even today, there is something tingle-inducing about seeing Muhammad Ali, Dorothy Hamill, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Chris Evert, Pelé, Tom Seaver and Wayne Gretzky captured at the height of their youthfulness and fame. These portraits, made by the ultimate connoisseur of fame himself, have aged beautifully. The show is up through Dec. 12 at 534 West 24th Street.”

…Even 30 years ago, Jack Nicklaus’ face looked like a piece of luggage.

So nerdy, but so awesome. via yewknee via scroll clock

Love this.

I know it has the potential to be really corny/played, but I’d love to hear an ATL version of “NY state of mind.”  Oh yeah, NSFW.
