I’m not much of a MyFace kind of guy, but Flickr holds a little more interest in terms of showing some photography and exploring other images.

Photographic Prints – Nigel Brooks Peer

These fascinating images are created the hard way, in the darkroom with overlapping negatives, hand exposed on photographic paper. Nigel has traveled extensively to more than 50 countries, collecting candid portraits and culturally relevant images. He juxtaposes the images together in ways that sometimes result in harmonies and sometimes in tension. His early works have a bite to them, often provocative, and sometimes shocking, his later works are tempered with a sensitivity that took a decade to form. Recently he’s been shooting digitally and we’ve been adapting a series to contemporary giclee printing on  archival canvas.
