let us now catalogue famous people

That's dope

internet k-hole is good but should get way more latepasses and way less shine

also that b+w photo of the guy eating out the upsidedown girl w/ the antlers in the foreground is from this absolutely incredible erotic photography book i have called Rapture: 13 Erotic Fantasies

http://www.amazon.com/Rapture-erotic-fantasies-Ron-Raffaelli/dp/B0006WMWNA

some NSFW shots:

its right in that sweet spot of 70's kitch/beauty/sincere/playful

has some really cool pre-photoshop darkroom trickery too-- highly recommended for anyone who's interested in pervy artsy b+w

maybe i'll post some of my own when i get home

i invite you to judge by its cover:

part of the thrill of internet k hole is the connoisseurial gaze you can cast picking out its occasional actual stephen shore pics &c though, right

lol i would probably not agree with that, but that is an interesting take

Man, the 70s

ha for real

I have a great story involving mirrors w/ someone who posts here but I'm not gonna tell it ;)

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.

those are wonderful. painful to imagine how cheap the rent on those places was

that is awesome. but I now feel very jealous.

ha
they'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.

this is across the street from us!

(let's see if this works)

yeah they are some of the ... craziest photo urls

I would buy a book of these

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

another one I'd buy a book of in a heartbeat. I think about those a lot.

yeah all the time. it's amazing being able to loop back to them & plunge into this slow-changing stream. they are like watching time pass, look:

really neat
the variations aren't really addressed but they seem so deliberate?

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

they're really nice. i bristle when i see too kinda ... kitschy an old telephone, or any sort of chrome-fendered american vehicle hood, but at the same time it reminds me of how much of a template eggleston is for just most everything now, my pictures way more than hers really. they're great though.

January 21 is v Nan Goldin

really loved modes china

Feel like could write a book about the lineage of masks in photography

Before Meatyard, more playful but ends up being haunting in its own way

Just caught up with Jesus Days - totally sweet
