Edward Burtynsky, OC is a Canadian photographer and artist.

Born of Ukrainian hertiage in 1955 in St. Catharines, Ontario, he studied at the Ryerson Polytechnic Institute, where he graduated from the Photographic Arts / Media Studies program with a Bachelor of Applied Arts, and at Niagara College, where he obtained a diploma in graphic arts. His works are housed in over fifty museums worldwide, numerous corporate collections, and books.

Really like his work on Chinese manufacturing which can be seen here and also on DVD.

Worth a look as the combination of images, sound and motion is becoming more relevant to photographers with the release of the new DSLR  video technology.

The intro for true blood reminds me a bit of william eggleston with the colours , details and deep south vibe.

The work of Christoph Gielen,from germany of course. Must be something in the wasser.

Keiichi Nitta son of terry.

Keiichi spent 6 years as terry richardson’s assistant before heading back to Japan and doing his own thing. Not sure if he uses the good old yashica ,but there are definitely similarities in the work , although some of the Richardson humour is missing. But that’s what makes Terry,Terry.

Always interesting to see the work of old assistants. Check out a previous post on the nick knight alumni here.
