Where is a biopic movie about the life of photographer Diane Arbus . Its not exactly "true story" film of Diane , but it shows us , how she looked at the peoples , threw a different angle. I saw that movie twice and personally recommend to watch it , off course , if your best movie is "Transformers " , so I would say don't even bother to watch it =-D

Helmut Newton - Photographer


One of my favorites photographer . He divides his work into three categories: nudes, portraits and fashion. But the nudes also can be a portrait, or fashion photo can be a nude and vice versa . Amazing and stunning images , stylized scenes with fetishistic taste. The photos are tasteful , not too much nudity , that would look like pornography. The main thing is body in the image, but the atmosphere and the idea how to present it , makes photography to talk.

"any advice for the young?

there are two dirty words in photography; one is 'art', and the other is 'good taste'.beauty is intellect.and glamour has nothing to do with money. "
Helmut Newton

First try on the blog



Today's photo
After staring threw my window for 5 minutes at a beautiful sky , I took my tripod and went outside to take couple of photos. The water looks like painted and separated into two different parts , one is dark and rough and another part of water is shiny , flat like ice with a colorful canary wharf buildings reflection .
The plane's light reflection on the water shows us a movement , even then looking at the lights in the sky,it just looks like only tree dots .
