ah yeah thank you. i saw it pop up on lens; it is just such a jarring collection of elements, like how bright the image is & what even is happening.

those beckett photos are terrific. did you ever hear the story about jane bown's? she said she'd intended to photograph him, had been trying to, & bumped into him as he was leaving a stage door at the theatre, him only slowing for a moment so she could shoot a couple of frames. & she was talking about why she liked the picture & how, when she was at school, she'd been taught photography during a still life class, a bunch of kids in a classroom & fruit piled on a table, the teacher saying everybody go pickup a melon to photograph & young jane bown tumbling over to pick one up. & she got there & grabbed a melon & turned to go back to her desk & the teacher stopped her & said jane ... make sure you get a good melon. so she picked her melon more closely. & the beckett photo is just ... the ultimate melon.

Ended up looking at a whole bunch of Bown's photos from the jump-off of the Becket article a little above, some brilliant work. Great use of natural light, like the one just there.

Mirrors are definitely way cool and stores should just leave them out on the street & so that everybody's photography can be improved

^ so great
i am usually negative & never not conflicted about martin parr but i was just looking through the book of his aperture published, the non-conformists; it looks lovely, & reminded me, without seeming too derivative, of robert frank in wales.

hathey're beautifully played off, too, though - the distressed, bare wall of that fort greene place. i've only seen these written up as apartment snooping shots but they're very beautifully composed; there are some double portraits, like classical, decoloured hockneys, & this kinda oscillation between busy flash & really neatly squared compositions. also they look so cool printed like that in the middle of the page.

otm, absolutely
incidentally i was just looking back at some of jamie livingston's polaroids; although their context probably makes assemblage kinda complicated, it's crazy they aren't in a book

My intuition is that every time she bought new clothes she wanted to show them off
She would get dressed in her new threads
And choose the best background in her house
Which happened to be her TV, a symbol of wealth
