i found this blog he has done on his site and its him talking about inspiration and talking about other photographers and artist.

Photographic Inspirations

Friday, October 15. 2010

A few months ago I posted a list of photographers I had found especially thought-provoking and, having discovered some really inspiring artists recently, now seems a good time to repeat the exercise. I have deliberately chosen photographers who do not use pinhole cameras as their primary means of image-making. To be too introspective in terms of method becomes stultifying and leads to sterility. (The same applies to media, so perhaps I should come up with a list of painters, sculptors, composers and designers too.)

What interests me in all these photographers is that their artistic power exists not simply in the photography itself. The photographs they make, although exquisite as an aesthetic expression in themselves, are made complete by the beauty of the emotions and concepts they explore. They all demonstrate a deeply meditative aspect which acts as a magnifier to the intense awareness they develop in the process of their creativity.

Fascinating, too, is the intimacy they display which I feel makes their  photographs eminently suited to viewing on screen or in book form. I have not seen any of these works in a gallery but such an environment might be too public to give as satisfactory an artist-viewer dialogue as the small-scale setting of the book or computer. Perhaps I am overstating the case but I am sure that visiting the links below you will see some of the clarity of vision they demonstrate and how individual and original their work.

A series exploring the parallels between the impulse for spiritual growth and the desire to be able to fly and to escape in the manner of Icarus.

Release

I really found this one like a horror version on pinhole photography.
it is something that you would see in a flim like saw or anything horror based .
i like the use of texture on the photo looks like as if the suface is rough and has been skrached on.

This photo looks like a red indian theme with the feathers and the pictures of the american birds.

Pinhole photography
The photographers

 A part of my blog has to be about photographers and pinhole camera photos , who have used pinhole taking images .

My first chosen photographer is Mark Tweedis who discovered pinhole photography seven years ago and thinks its a expressive medium. he has been making and producing his own style of pinhole photography and

He has made his own pinhole cameras . He also has his work held in collections worldwide with prints of his images available for sale.Surprisingly he has also made a book about his life in pinhole photgraphy.

In his bio Mark explains how its like being a person that takes pinhole images and says that one image could take up hours to produce,but it graces the image with a powerful sence of narrative.He produces photographs in a series or sequence rather than single image.And when he takes his first image he will often sparks ideas for modifications, expansions and developmenta on the scene of his image.He also explains every image is unexpected for how it looks like , and that gives him a wonder and excitment when producing photos .He finds pinhole cameras primitive and relatively a uncontrollable media but spending a day achieving little in material terms still has a fundamentally satisfying aspect to it.

I find Mark as a person who enjoys working with pinhole cameras and understands that or though images might not be what he expects it gives him excitment and is satisfying even if hardly much is achieved

This is some of his work

A collection of images from a four-day journey on foot across the northern part of Dartmoor. The cardboard Populist proved the ideal pinhole camera for the trip, being light and, encased in an improvised plastic housing, robust enough for the tough conditions

East Dart River


My favoirate photo is the East Dart River. I really like how the river looks smooth and as if it had a fluffy texture. And also you can still tell it is moving down the stream.
