Bush Assassinated Picture

This picture is a still from the soon to be broadcast mock documentary “Death of a president” which controversially depicts the assassination of George W Bush. They used archive images, actors and CGI to create the realistic scenes that have outraged Republicans and pundits calling it “shocking and disturbing”.

Politics and taste aside, it does look very skilfully done plus shows the ability of a picture to move people and cause debate!

Beautiful Black and White

I just happened across some brilliant Black and white Photography.

I think it takes real skill to get the best out of the medium, I haven’t personally tried much pure black and white relying mostly instead on post maniuplation on the pictures I think it might work well on. Black and white certainly adds drama and tension though when done properly.

Photos of the year 2005

Well none of mine got in, heh, but Time have published their Photos of the year 2005.

I need to warn you, pretty bleak viewing. 2005 was a year of disasters as the pictures show. Great photography though, content aside.
