¿Nikka y sus XxX? « Lomos y Lomitos Tengo una obsesión. Es la fotografía analógica y concretamente la Lomografía. Tengo unas ganas. Ganas de compartir lo que sé sobre el tema con los demás. Tengo todas las respuestas?. …Juntos podremos. Mi vida analógica comienza el día en que nací, hace más de 30 años. Jugaba con mis primas con flexo en mano, a encenderlo y a apagarlo a oscuras, simulando el ser una fotógrafa que retrataba modelos de revista. Jugaba con el CinExin de Disney a ser directora. Jugaba con las pinturas en el estudio de mi tía…Jugaba a ser pintora con los óleos que ella me regalaba. Jugaba a ser diseñadora con el Diseña La Moda y hacerle trajes a las barriguitas con Esa amiga de mi madre. Soy de las que viví momentos familiares viendo diapos proyectadas y videos de 8mm. Ya en la Universidad, mi padre me regalaró el último modelo que hizo Nikon completamente analógico. Ví el comienzo de lo digital pero siempre me resistí a él aunque el primer scanner que vi de mano me dejó flipada! Suma y sigue… I Was a Virgin.

21 Awesome T-Shirts for Photographers I’m a big fan of Threadless and the seemingly infinite stream of hilarious t-shirts designs that are constantly being created by its dedicated community. However, I haven’t been able to find many shirts designed specifically for photographers on the service. Yesterday I tweeted a request for links to photography related t-shirt designs, and received quite a large number of interesting responses. #1: I Can’t Draw One of the few photography-related t-shirts I was able to find on Threadless. #2: Spray and Pray Who cares what or how you shoot if you can put it through Photoshop it afterwards? #3: Beware of the Photographer If you’re not careful around me, you might get shot (or Photoshopped). #4: Camera Display Panel A great shirt to confuse non-photogs. #5: Smile Baby #6: Instant Pool Party Threadless shirts are always top-notch. #7: Flasher Hmmm… #8: Aperture Another minimalistic design. #9: 18% Grey Amazing! #10: photographer’s friend #11: Photographer Grrl #12: I Like To Flash People #14: oh, crop

Sueños de papel... Vive, crea , sueña.... Photographs of Mirrors on Easels that Look Like Paintings in the Desert Daniel Kukla is a photographer who had formal training in biological and anthropological sciences. His educational background plays a major part of his artistic practice, and this can be seen in his clever project titled, The Edge Effect. In the description and explanation of the project, Kukla writes, In March of 2012, I was awarded an artist’s residency by the United States National Park Service in southern California’s Joshua Tree National Park. We love how the photos look like they’re of paintings of the desert placed within the desert. You can find the rest of the photographs in the series over on Kukla’s website.
