Enid came by for a visit...
Wherever there's adventure to be found
Just a clue or a secret message bring the Famous Five around
Whenever there's a mystery to be solved
Up in the ruined castle or down in Smuggler's Top
(Chorus:) We are the Famous Five
Julian, Dick and Anne, George and Timmy the dog
We are the Famous Five
We're coming back to you, whenever there's time, time after time.
invited guest: Josephine Sacabo
Some months ago I discovered the fascinating work of Joséphine Sacabo. I find her dark, subjective and beautiful photographs really interesting and is happy to present some of her work on The F Blog. She uses poetry as the genisis of her work and is for example inspired by Rilke, Juan Rulfo and Baudelarie. Her photographs are all black and white silver gelatin prints and she often uses multiple negatives, various tonings, oil washes, solarizations and flashing during the process. ”There are many steps involved in creating the final print and these are as important to me as the capturing of the image”, she says.
