Brutalist Barbican

Barbican London

 

The Barbican, a City of London housing complex with the largest performing arts centre in Europe built from the rubble of WWII bombing.

Through the maze of leading lines we eventually arrived at the photographic exhibition curated by Martin Parr – Strange and Familiar Britain as viewed by foreigners from the 1930’s through to today.

An impressive list of foreigners, an absolute must see!

Screwed and Owned…

Owned because I can’t make Photoshop work well in a Windows 10 virtual machine running under Linux… Ok sorry for the technical vocabulary. I am running Linux Ubuntu on my desktop and I can’t find any good photograhy software. So I feel owned by Adobe and Microsoft 😥

I wish I could get more from that picture. I can see aliasing…

I am looking to buy this coming fall a Sony Z5 cellphone (benchmark) which actually gives a nice 23Mpx. If I can make somthing good with it, I’ll be able to shoot AND to process every picture on this cellphone.

We’ll see.

The Best Of Monochromia – Elina K. – Stare Miasto

Other than fellow contributor Laurie I have been following Elina’s blog for the longest time. We have become very good friends and I hope to make the trip to Finland and meet her in person one day. I love the way she sees things and her resulting images. She definitely has a “stop and smell the roses” style and notices the beauty in everyday objects that most people would walk right past – Joe
