READING: Circus Series

http://www.fotolog.com/mister_t/75675647

During photography class I found a book on an urban photographer who specialized on taking pictures of street life. Finding this book, inspired me to further look for other photographers who specialized in this same type of photography. My favorite work came from this link. Many of the works play with contrast in such a poetic manner that this photographer's work easily spoke to me. The one image that most struck me as fascinating is called "Circus Serie". The picture overall is very haunted and it has many shadows that add to this dark effect. In addition, the smile of the person being photographed is very sinister.
