If you don't know Gregory Colbert's work then take a look.

Re: A Master

"None of the images have been digitally collaged or superimposed. They record what the artist himself saw through the lens of his camera. While Colbert uses both still and movie cameras, the images are not stills from the film."

WOW!

Re: A Master

magnificent
but do remember, all the photographer has done is 'see' the image and worked out how to capture it... we all do this ...the problem is that we may not be being bold enough in what we see!

Re: A Master

Inspiring and astonishing. If only...
Still, I take comfort from the thought that if we could all produce work like that, then it would just be tres ordinaire. We cannot all be geniuses.

(but the occasional moment would be welcome).
