brad industry posted:I fully appreciate what your saying, I really digged his photos but that was before I knew who he was or what he's like. I don't think I can separate him from his work, primarily as he's in a lot of it. And I think the other problem I have is imitators doing really crap versions of his work and calling it edgy. But this is all a photographic amatuer's opinion.

Twenties Superstar posted:To be honest Terry Richardsons personality only makes his work more interesting to me Its the numerous stories you read about him bullying young inexperienced models into getting naked to get his shots, and his overall creepiness in a sexual predator kind of way that turns me off him. Like I said, if I didn't know of this I'd probably like his work a hell'ova lot more.

There has been a flurry of interest in some work a good friend/colleague has recently published about meta-materials, the interest being in its potential cloaking properties. For your general interest: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-11686303 Today we had a photographer from Reuters come down to take some shots. Really nice guy, he had with him a couple of well worn Canon 1D's with a 200-70mm, 70-28mm and 100mm macro. Interestingly enough he said that they were not allowed to do such things as taking out blemishes, scratches or any cloning, and if he did he'd lose his job. Only post processing that was allowed was what is achievable in a conventional darkroom.

poopinmymouth posted:If you have a constant stream of art students through your door, it WILL destroy your will to teach the dumbasses, claiming otherwise is ignorance. Seriously, you just don't understand how soul killing it is to be passionate about teaching, knowledgeable about a subject, be told you are getting a class of students who want your knowledge, and then they do dick all homework, spending 20 min on a recommended 4-8 hour project, or 2+ hours on a 40 hour project. This part is true for any university teaching, I've had very similar experiences with engineering students who think they can just cruise through a degree just like high school.

I'm starting to get irrationally angry at a large Olympus OM-D advertisement on a bus stop near my work. if you could imagine a large portrait version of this photo: I think its the combination of the wet camera, moody stare and hood that are getting on my nerves. Not to mention the full hipster dickbag ads Olympus are running on TV at the moment for the OM-D.

Has anyone got some good recommendations on photographic history? I'm not interested in the technical history, but more the artistic movements in contemporary photography. I come from the complete opposite background (engineering/physics), so I'm looking for something to give me a good grounding on the most influential photographers and the like.

You may have seen this elsewhere: http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/art-and-design/gallery-dumps-artist-over-photo-controversy-20120902-258m4.html Basically a photographer (or whatever he calls himself) is in the poo poo with the gallery that represents him after it was found that he was getting photos from Getty, manipulating them and then not crediting the original photographer. I don't see anything wrong with what he was doing, it's art, and not to far from what some guys on the dorkroom do (ThisQuietReverie - always like your stuff), but it's the not crediting sources is what is rubbing people the wrong way I think.
