"The True Meaning of Pictures"

Last night I watched a documentary about Shelby Lee Adams' work. I started to watch it and realized I rented it a few years ago-DUH.. It was still good, so I watched it again. He takes AMAZING photos. More info here

I LOVE this picture.. It's so crisp and in a better version of it you can see how much the cow's heads pop from the pic.

If you get a chance do a google image search for Federico Patellani. His work is amazing also.

  2. He's so awesome! You should join Netflix.. you can find everything there. You might not find this one at a regular video store. Let me know what you think when you do rent it k? ;o)
