I love the little trend of setting up those tiny railroad set figures to look like they are interacting with the real world and then taking photos of them. I always dreamed of encountering mini people in my house after reading books like The Borrowers, and these photos evoke that sense of longing for […]
Links to above photos: bird, trees, horse, pillows.
VioletJulia is an artist that takes amazing Polaroid photos. The compositions are minimal and go well with the muted colors of Polaroid film. I find myself more and more attracted to this Lo-fi style of photography. There’s something about it that creates a serene and […]
I find that when I choose color schemes for my designs I end up falling back to my favorite colors over and over again, so when I need variety I’ve been using Adobe’s Kuler to find color inspiration. I love the way it works with CS3 so easily, and it seems to be the […]
I’ve decided to establish a running feature on my blog that I will call “Typography Photography”. In this case, “Typography Photography” is defined as being a photo of typographic work in context.

Paulete Matos is working on a great photo set project called “Rhythms”. The photos all consist of a single person with an umbrella walking on a gray textured road. It’s a simple idea, but well executed.

I thought these photographs of objects interacting with clouds were pretty clever. Unfortunately I can’t read the site that they are on, so I have no idea who made them or where they came from.
Colorado artist Anthony Cozzi has a small but fantastic collection of giclée prints sold under the moniker “Snowblinded”. I especially love the “Volcano” print as it reminds me of Asian woodblock prints. The rest of the prints feature great colors and texture as well in both photographic and graphic styles. The price […]
