Double take

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

Something about the cover story images in today’s Guardian looked vaguely familiar…it’s 1997 all over again - cross processed, colour saturated images, the dying days of the britpop era and our small part in this musical footnote. For the Guardian article the technique is utilised to a far more devastating effect, see the full gallery here

Kevin Cummins

Great article and photos from legendary Manchester photographer Kevin Cummins. Famous for his passion for the city’s music scene and it’s football team in equal measure, he once refused to leave fly out of America on United airlines.

Paul Graham

Thursday, March 5th, 2009

Browsing today’s paper I came across an article about British photographer Paul Graham. His work sits somewhere between Martin Parr and William Egglestone, documenting fragments of everyday life. One of his earliest and most evocative series of pictures was ‘A1 - The Great North Road’ from 1981-2. Photograph: Paul Graham /steidlMACK

Ystad Daily Photo

Saturday, February 28th, 2009

Last year I went to southern Sweden for a photoshoot and in the course of the location research i discovered the photoblog ‘Ystad Daily Photo’ by the photographer and journalist Fredrik Ekbland. These are beautiful images of this stunning corner of Europe, but even more impressive are his occasional commentaries in perfectly nuanced English.
