Artist’s Quotation
Photography, as we all know, is not real at all. It is an illusion of reality with which we create our own private world. ~Arnold Newman

Silent World
Hi folks, I know it’s been a while since posting here; the site is not forgotten but I find myself focused on more than I have time for. I wish I could resolve to post here daily, or weekly at least, but that would be to set myself up for failure.
As I said this site is not forgotten and so here is most likely my last post for 2008.
Michael Kenna’s B & W photographs are often spare in their context and stark in their contrast. His often etheriel style leaves the viewer wanting to visit the place seen on paper. This in itself is not altogether unique to Kenna’s pictures but his pictures can leave you with a longing in your sould to be in such private and empty places.
While looking for more examples of his work other than what can be found on his website I found a page of his photos that provides excelent examples of his silent world.
After seeing his pictures let everyone know what you thought of them by posting a comment here.
