i got a dd ^rhapsouldize featured my photo ([link]), for which i'm very grateful. it feels very nice.

anyway, i've been in berlin last weekend so there'll be some fresh stuff soon, eventually. just two days, but a few shots to upload, some of which i kinda like.

finally, i'm still under a great impression of the City Of Shadows exhibition; so if you're in the mood for some old-fashioned, realistic photography and an insight to the atmosphere of late 1920's and early 30', visit [link] .


take care!

someone sent me a link to this, i think these photographs are stunning:
[link] - some polish text and wider choice of pictures

see it you won't regret it.



City Of Shadows – Early 20th Century Police Photography, Sydney, Australia

In late 1970s, several tons of negatives were saved from a flooded police warehouse in Lidcombe, a suburb of Western Sydney by Peter Doyle, a curator at the Justice & Police Museum, author of crime stories. For three years Doyle studied hundreds of thousands of prints and arranged them in chronological order, reconstructed the stories of the people shown in them and searched for the names of the photographers.
The mug shots of Sydney’s thieves, frauds, prostitutes, murderers, drug traffickers, procurers, fences or gamblers were taken in the years 1912 to 1948. The mystery around the mug shots that will never be solved is the photographers’ identity. No one knows who the police photographs of 1912-1930 were taken by. Perhaps there was only one photographer, or maybe more.

exams are over, some new stuff might come along. meanwhile you might want to check out an article about robert capa's lost negatives from spanich civil war rediscovered (please appretiate that i had to spend 10 minutes looking for the english version ) - [link]

some new stuff in the gallery, hope you like.. i've also borrowed an old russian movie camera from a friend, if i can get the 8mm film i hope to have some fun with it i'm thinking of making short films or maybe using frames single frames as photos, if it's possible. of course i don't have a penny for film.

time for a new journal. i turned 21 a month ago (as you can read in my profile). i submitted a shot form krakow which is good because it's something fresh for the first time since august. another heartwarming thing is that my photo ([link]) has been recently featured by ^rhapsouldize (thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou). it's a nice selection so give it a try (right here: [link])

poll question: does anybody read this?
