New Modernist Photography Some NSFW. Previously seen on mefi as part of Operation Eden.

(Can I grouse that on Mefi, the lack of description kept me from seeing the Katrina blog the first time around, and that the poor indexing meant that nothing showed up for the photographer or blog until I was previewing the FPP? And now it's closed to new comments... Arg...)
What I like about it is the cleanliness of the composition, and the high modernist monumentality of the figure. A bit too often he gets into Photoshop buffing that I think makes the images less interesting, and I am kinda disappointed that the nudes are so traditional, but the images he gets are strong.

Sure, I do it all the time. Those posters who think a single word FPP is oh so clever are doing the site and themselves a disservice.

ah, thanks for commenting, Mitheral... I meant to remember to say that I looked at the site this morning (many, many hours ago, from where I'm sitting) and really liked it, and now that I saw your response on "recent comments", I finally did remember.

So, thanks for pointing it out, klangklangston. I also missed this at MeFi the first time around, and the hurricane images are very moving. I expected any minute to see someone I know, and while I didn't, the portraits were very authentic, very close to my experience in terms of place & people.

Yeah, it pissed me off to see what could have been a good FPP turned into something that was easy to miss. And I hope that more people don't miss it here just because I mentioned that part of it was on MeFi before...

Now I know what I want for Christmas. || How many drinks does it take you?
