My French isn’t brilliant so please excuse the lack of a description about HELMO, but I hope you’ll forgive me for pointing you in the direction of these staggering images entitled ‘coloured smoke’.
An image from Vector Portraits, ‘Photographs made while travelling 50 to 70mph in Los Angeles, and other parts of the south-western United States.’
Nice new website for photographer James Day created by the guys at Sennep. Big fan of Flash websites that just work, also helps when the content’s great.

Thanks to Michael.
Thanks to Hugh for pointing me in the direction of Solvakian photographer Branislav. I’m especially taken by his eerie, straight out of a sci-fi movie ‘Billboard’ series.
French photographer Charles Negre is currently studying at Ecole Cantonale d’Art de Lausanne. Pictured is one from his series Crashs Tests.
We were recommended last week to have a look at William Eggelston’s photography, being assured that we would see depth of colour to match anyone working in the world today, and we weren’t disappointed.
New York based agency Levine/Leavitt have relaunched their site. Some great artists to peruse on a Friday including Alex Trochut, Anthony Burrill and Si Scott as well some fantastic photographers including personal favourite Peter Funch (pictured).
Great images from London based photographer David Axelbank.
Loving the work of Stockholm based photographer Rasmus Norlander.
Lovely atmospheric images from New York based Steven Laxton.
Great photography from Alex Edouard and anyone stuck for something to do in London this weekend might want to check out the Hornimann Museum, where this photograph was taken.
What’s that? An 8ft plank of wood with a mustache, hip and knee joint? You would be right, yes.
This morning I found the beautiful and abundant portfolio of Anna Wolf. Packed full of both client-led and personal work, you won’t be short of something to look at.
Some nice things from Kelli Anderson, including a ton of very handsome letterpress pieces – but this series Cube struck me the most – “Minimalist geometry in naturalist landscapes”.
Great work from Chris Searl. Check out his news as well for some great links and recent work.
London based photographer Edward Park has got some nice work. Pictured is an image from his personal work, Summerhouse Story.
Texas based photographer Matthew Genitempo has got a hefty flickr worth a look.
LA based photographer Matthew Scott has got some nice work, pictured is a crop of one of his images from the Last Call… Portrait of a Dive Bar series.
We’ve always been a fan of Guy’s photography and so were very excited to hear he had a new website up. I’m especially keen on this one titled ‘Nine Lives’.
A young photographer with an incredibly bright future.
I’ve been obsessively checking this site ever since I very briefly met Todd in New York last year.
A great idea to take photographs not just of interesting creative types, but also their humble abodes. What’s more insightful about a person than seeing all their stuff and where they live?
Also I’m always fascinated by his interview sheets at the bottom of each page. Hand scrawled and spontaneous makes for much more interesting reading than a typed email asking a few tired questions…
The Selby makes the stigma attached to being nosey a thing of the past.
New York based photographer Sarina Cass has got some great polaroids on her flickr.
