All Day I Dream About Photography

Photographer of the week: Lars Johnsson

Lars is a fellow photographer from Sweden with a fantastic gallery !
I’ve had the chance to find his pictures while looking for samples of the Canon EF 85mm 1.2 L and I was captivated by his portraits.

Lars was kind enough to allow me to publish 10 of his best pictures and, if you want to appreciate more of his work, I’ll invite you to take a look at his pbase gallery.

Photographer of the week: Arcak Askin

I’ve been away for nearly a full week I hope you guys are still around! I am sorry for that but we had an urgent migration to deal with at work and it was an overwhelming experience, but I’m back on track.
Today I present to you Arcak Askin the photographer that signs under the name of Eastanbul at flickr.

If you like simple compositions, outstanding lighting, colors that feels coming right out of a cinema moving and, above all, delicious depth of field play and bokeh then I can assure you you will be love Eastanbul’s work.

I will leave you now with a handpicked collection of Arcak’s best pictures

Photographer of the week: Leanne Lim-Walker

Leanne totally got me hooked the day I came across her photo-stream at flickr. Ever since I find myself just coming back for more of her portrait work.

The freshness and the uniqueness of her composition is really inspiring ! When I look at the quality of her work and notice that most were done with “just” a camera a kit lens and available light I think “GOD I need some work!”.

Here is a teaser of the quality of work you would find if you check Leanne on Flickr

Photographer of the week: Mac Logue

I can simply summarize all what I want to say about Mac in one of two sentences
“Food the way you have never seen it before” or “The man who made me want to give food photography a try”.

Tasteful composition and delicate lighting seems to be 2 keys for Mac’s great work, I have rarely been inspired by food pictures before but these are a different story.

Mac is a great photographer who post his photos on flickr under the pseudo of Rotten Jimmy, make sure to check his photostream for more great stuff.

Photographer of the week: Patrick Di Fruscia

Honestly I don’t know how I can introduce Patrick. Patrick for me is more than just a photographer I admire. In fact, for the past couple of year, Patrick has been for me a friend and an inspiration.

I met Patrick on Photosig and I was so amazed by his portfolio that I emailed him. Patrick’s reaction was much more than just a polite thanks, he took the time to chat with me and help me out many times by looking at my pictures and commenting on them.

If at a personal level Patrick is great his work is nothing less than wonderful. Although I have never seen a picture he took that was not landscape, he has a unique way of composition that, I think I could recognize his pictures just by looking at it. Any place through his lens would look just WOW.

Of course I have prepared a collection of his best photos however to see more of his work make sure to visit DiFrusciaPhotography.com

I first saw Stephen’s work on ADIDAP’s flickr group and I have been captivated by his eye.

His pictures are simple yet effective, he simply knows how to turn a common scene into an great picture.

Before leaving you with a selection of Stephen’s best pictures, I will invite you to visit xgray.org for more of his work.

Photographer of the week: lucy_nka

I stumbled on lucy’s photostream a few days ago in flickr and I was directly captivated by her street pictures.
Shooting mainly in Black and White, each exposure is story telling. It is hard to look at them and not think twice.

Every photo has a touch of mystery that I cannot explain in words, is it composition, is it vignetting, is it light or is it post processing ? I wouldn’t know. But these are definitely the kind of pictures I could just stare at and find myself lost in thoughts.

Here is a selection of Lucy’s work but make sure to add her on flickr, the kind of photostream you don’t want to miss !

Photographer of the week: Gene Smirnov

Gene is not exactly your “everyday” photographer style. There is a lot of raw beauty in his pictures. His creations are so different, to my eyes, that they are almost shocking. It is simply that my eyes are not used to so much truth in pictures.

Each of his exposure is carefully planned, composed and lit to give the scene a very natural aspect. Make sure to check http://www.genesmirnov.com/ for all of Gene’s work.
