DeviantArt Favorites

DeviantArt is my favorite digital art website. I keep checking it and adding more and more images to my favorites. You can check them out here.

Flickr

I prefer Flickr to Picasa, however Picasa is way more generous in terms of sheer space, so I end up placing all my photos at Picasa. Anyway I keep a Flickr account and I will be posting my favorites here.

Picasa Accounts

I scatter my photos in free internet image banks. Flickr and Picasa are the best, but if you want bigger than 1024x768 pixels and more than 200 photos on a free account , Picasa is the only one standing...

Guy Bourdin

Book:Guy Bourdin by Alison Gingeras
I just bought Phaidon's Guy Bourdin by Alison M. Gingeras for less than 7€ on fnac sales and I'm so astonished by this guy's work that I decided to blog it here.

"Guy Bourdin (December 2, 1928 in Paris – March 29, 1991 in Paris) was one of the best known photographers of fashion and advertising of the second half of the 20th century. He shared Helmut Newton’s taste for controversy and stylization, but Bourdin’s formal daring and the narrative power of his images exceeded the bounds of conventional advertising photography. Shattering expectations and questioning boundaries, he set the stage for a new kind of fashion photography[1]. Bourdin worked for Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, and shot ad campaigns for Chanel, Issey Miyake, Emanuel Ungaro, Gianni Versace, Loewe, Pentax and Bloomingdale’s." from Wikipedia EN

Below are some of his most famous works and some videos made by him or about him, hit more...
