Chicago 1949 by Stanley Kubrick

Before he started making movies, Stanley Kubrick was a star photojournalist. In the summer of 1949, Look magazine sent him to Chicago to shoot pictures for a story called “Chicago City of Contrasts.”

BIGGEST TEAHUPOO EVER, SHOT ON THE PHANTOM CAMERA

This day at Teahupoo- Aug 27th 2011 during the Billabong Pro waiting period is what many are calling the biggest and gnarliest Teahupoo ever ridden. Chris Bryan was fortunate enough to be there working for Billabong on a day that will go down in the history of big wave surfing. The French Navy labeled this day a double code red prohibiting and threatening to arrest anyone that entered the water.

 
Kelly Slater described the day by saying “witnessing this was a draining feeling being terrified for other people’s lives all day long, it’s life or death. Letting go of that rope one time can change your life and not many people will ever experience that in their life.” 


All images were shot by Chris Bryan using the Phantom HD Gold camera. To see more of Chris’ work check out his website. WWW.CHRISBRYANFILMS.COM

My Kickstarter project is now live! May I ask you to take a look at “Detroit Portraits” and consider supporting me? I’m not asking for “donations” per se because I give something really cool back to you based on your support level. Just think of it as shopping :)

Nicholas Mynheer: ‘Rigorous Simplicity in Stone, Oil or Glass’
I was first introduced to Nick’s work by photographer Jonny Baker’s image of “the word.”
I enjoy the continuity of form throughout his work and the emotions that are evoked by the faces.

Ghosts of Amsterdam

Similar to Dear Photograph, historian Jo Teeuwisse combines found photos of Nazi-occupied Amsterdam with the same modern day locations by superimposing the two.
These chilling photos remind me of a black and white photo of Nazi soldiers printed on a pane of glass at Dachau. It was mounted in such a way that if you stood in the right spot, it looked as though the soldiers ghosts were standing in the room with you.
