un-known
Bengt says: "I found some old negatives that were "unknown" although they were from my work. This picture is from Stockholm, Old town - around 1960"

F is un-
As you know, dear reader of the F Blog we are trying hard to be un-predictable and un-pretentious. So how about a project exploring relations beween titles of a picture and the picture itself. We would like you to send us pictures titled with the prefix un-. Well, there are a few; unaware, uncertain, undressed, unequal, unexpected, unknown, unlawful, unlikely unnecessary, unofficial...now get a dictionary!
The pictures that introduce this project "Hedgehog having milk" and "Tulips" have nothing to do with the project. Except that they are un-matched in the history of photography, of course. Well, need I say more? Send your contributions to gruppof-inbox@googlegroups.com .../M. Rurbano

invited guest: David Burnett
David Burnett has been photographing the world for more than 35 years. He graduated from Colorado College in 1968 (B.A. Political Science) and began working as a free lancer for Time, then Life Magazine, at first in Washington DC and Miami, and later in South Viet Nam. After two years in Vietnam, and the demise of Life weekly, he joined the French photo agency Gamma, traveling the world for their news department for two years.
In 1976 he co-founded Contact Press Images in New York, and for the the last three decades, he has traveled extensively, working for most of the major photographic and general interest magazines in the U.S. and Europe.
His awards include Magazine Photographer of the Year from the Pictures of the Year Competition, the World Press Photo of the Year, and the Robert Capa Award from the Overseas Press Club, to name but a few.
The work on this website represents an overview of published work, and yes, some of his favorite pictures which haven't yet been published.
Have a look at www.davidburnett.com
The pictures presented here are from a recent story on Orlando. "It's a weird place. Trust me.", says David. I am glad to see David´s work on the F blog. If you look at his portofolio "Measures of time" you will get some idea of his work as a photojournalist. He seems to have been everywhere. I also recommend you to read an article in New York Times where Mr Burnett explains why he has spent most of the last years lugging around a 55-year-old 4-by-5-inch Graflex Speed Graphic camera, complete with tripod.

Casa delle fiabe
“Casa delle fiabe” (house of the fairy tales) is a tiny house made of paper and recycled windows and furnitures. It’s full of objects of our childhood, a hand made book with the story of the “pesciolina” (little girl fish) and other small old photos. It has been created by a young artist of the Linkinart group. They are young architects and artists involved in a new urban dimension and they work in Genova.

Sebastian Nowakowski: "An amateur photographer, or perhaps should one say photo amateur - since I love to photograph... especially people, their uniqueness in going through the everyday life. Watching with sympathy and goodwill. Always trying to leave space for the viewer's interpretation, views and thoughts."/invited by Joanna/
