I like these photographs
Flickr has a new gallery feature which allows you to group related images onto one page. The interface is nice; I could certainly think of a few improvements, but it gets the job done. I still enjoy going through my contacts’ recent uploads from time to time and occasionally see something that makes my eyes pop. Finding the good stuff in the proverbial haystack can require a lot of patience, but I think I came up with a nice selection, including photos from Alexi Hobbs, Noah Kalina, Sean Stewart, Grant Willing, Carlos Albalá, and Lisa Scheer, and others. Take a look and let me know what you think.
Joel Meyerowitz: Legacy
I just came across a new body of work from Joel Meyerowitz that will be published by Aperture this fall. Legacy: The Preservation of Wilderness in New York City Parks contains 250 images from New York City’s parks and wild spaces, and from what little I’ve seen, it looks pretty spectacular. The subject of wilderness contained within urban areas is something I have been fascinated by for a long time, and I’m sure I’ll see a lot of familiar places. The book also contains information about the parks such as maps and historical information.

I am a sucker for time-lapse, black and white, poetical desert mysticism; basically everything this image represents. Michael Lundgren and Chris McCaw inspire similar feelings, I thought these last three worked together very nicely. continue reading

Sunburned GSP#164(Mojave), 2007, Chris McCaw
I loved Chris McCaw’s work at this summer’s Transfiguration show at Michael Mazzeo.
Speaking of Michael Mazzeo, be sure to catch the online-only show Arbor, currently on view on the gallery website. I recommend watching it in fullscreen mode, and just let it play. Between this and the last few shows I’ve seen at the gallery, Michael Mazzeo is quickly becoming one of my favorites.
