I came across this artist while researching for my artist presentation. He does some pretty great stuff. I especially liked his series titled “The Phenomenology of Shopping”

The Floating Girl of Tokyo
This girl does one ‘levitation’ a day, making for some really whimsical photos.
Leo Friedman, Western Student, not Broadway Photographer
This is a friend of mine who takes some really nice digital shots of Bellingham and his travels. Check ’em out here:
Some of the Mexico ones are my favorites.
Lytro Light Feild Camera: A New Take on Digital
This neat little camera looks like it could be the Holga of digital, making digital photography accessible to those who are intimidated by the large, super complex cameras of today. I want one of these. Check out the review here, a sample photo gallery here, and the picture above links to the product website.
Digital Bird Photography
My best (so far) bird photos.
Steve Mcurry
For the last post, I wanted to know more about the other photos of the guy who took the very famous picture of the Afghan girl in the front of national geographic. I have always liked that picture, and probably most people did too. So here is website, http://stevemccurry.com/ .

Yoshio Watanabe
In my Japanese Art history class we talked about one the most influential photographers in Japan. Yoshio Watanabe was one of the most well known photographers in Japan after World war 2 because he went and took pictures of Ise shrine. Ise shrine is a sacred shrine that no one can go inside and they only let Watanabe inside as a guest. He was only allowed to go the half way point and not allowed to go into the inner circle of the shrine. Many did not appreciate his work because he took many photos that were very abstract and they thought that he did not truly capture the essence of Ise shrine. However as time rolled by, many realize the beauty in his work.
