Invited guest: Nick Brandt

Ever since I was a kid I´ve been fascinated by the wildlife of the savanna.
I´ve never been there but Nick has and some day I will be there too and enjoy these magnificent animals.
In my opinion its not many people who manage to make art of wildlife photography, Nick is one of them who manage to do that and please enjoy the mythical world of Nick´s animals of the savanna wich sadly is a vanishing world if we don´t stop that. It´s close (no teleshots) its personal and you can enjoy more at Nick´s homepage http://www.nickbrandt.com/

invited guest: Sannah Kvist

I'm thrilled to be able to invite Sannah Kvist to the F-Blog. I've been a great admirer of her work since I first saw it about a year ago. I recommend that you have a look at her blog, it's a visual avalanche. Sannah might be the next big thing, remember where you read it first folks!

"sannah kvist says: för fan vad skriver man om sig själv och sina bilder?

gustav says: inte en aning, vad ska du skriva till?

sannah kvist says: en blog F blog http://gruppof.blogspot.com/ verkar vara en kul grej, inbjudna fotografer, både proffs och ickeproffs

gustav says: skriv att du har en förmåga att få vilket obetydligt motiv som helst att verka som det är svaret på livets problem.

sannah kvist says: men sånt kan man inte inte skriva?

gustav says: kanske inte, men det är ju sant."

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.

Enid Blyton Famous Five

To be in the middle of everything

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.

invited guest: Iwona Zięba

I have opened few days ago doors to Upper Silesia. I’d like you to come to this world with other photographers.

I am honored to present you works of Iwona Zięba.

Iwona finished Academy of Fine Art in Katowice. She works as graphician in publisher office. She often joins graphic with her other passion – photography. She is famous mainly thanks her photo-collages, often published and awarded, but we decided to show you place where we both live – Gliwice.

Photography and graphic art allow me to forget at least for a while about reality.

I try to follow and capture the conversation of elements of my works - I am looking for something that I call dialog (dependencies or symbiosis).

I love photographing fogs, but…you have to get up sooo early…

Gruppo F Inbox: Kita McIntosh

We got a mail:

Hello
beside knitting hermaphrodite dolls and taking shots of suicidalforks, I also like to climb mountains with Dollina, my spooky Mascherina. So there.
I also do love my toy cams, so some of these were taken with a toy Fisheye and 2 with an old Halina instamatic which I like particularly.
You can post one, some or none, whatever turns you on

affection to all
Kita from Randomnium

Ofcourse we post them all...you can find more of Kitas images here...
