You favourite work of other people?

I love browsing around photo.net and usefilm.com. There are some amazing pictures on there that can inspire you to try and take yours to a better level - and they can also give you ideas for a new perspective that you hadn't thought of before.

Here are a few of my favourite images:

'Forty Winks' by Heroaki Sato

'Moonlight Sonata' by Nandor Lang

'Earthshine' by Onur Özbakan

And a few by Toru Kona,

'Scene'

'A Seven Swan'

'While Snow Falls'

I was also particularly inspired by the work of David J. Nightingale or 'chromasia' as found in Valentia's bookmark list (thank you Valentia ) who has tons of fantastic pictures from Blackpool - showing that you can make something of the most unlikely subjects, and also when the weather is crap or the light is dull and flat. I spent a good hour just clicking through his entire archives, being amazed at the quality of the pictures.

This photo by Renne Burri is my favorite picture at the moment, it looks like a photo that could have inspired Quentin Tarantino to write reservoir dogs. Its just oozes "coolness".

before i arrived here, apart from Lord Lichfield i don't really know any other photographer. well, except for some reference to a guy called Richard Bellingham that i happen to have in a file on the HD here, it's from a thesis i did for some poor art student a while back, some of his photography is striking some just plain ugly but nearly always elicits a reaction from the viewer.

I've been looking at some of the links and yeah some of it is awe inspiring and maybe a little bit daunting considering i only know how to switch the camera on and off

liked the chromasia a lot

thanks for opening up some new avenues of interest

I know this pic isnt really a proper photography, more of a manipulated digital image, but I still think its an amzing shot!
