Inspiration: David Evenson

January 30th, 2009

Some more photos. Via David Evenson, a photographer who lives in our neighborhood and has snapped some great shots of it (yes he even has a shot of our place, but I’m not linking it!). His landscapes are pretty great too.

  2. Neighborhood after snow
  3. Nice shot of one of the three large wildfires that burned in early January of this year around Boulder

Inspiration: Todd Hido

January 30th, 2009

Thanks to booooooom for the link to the works of photographer Todd Hido. (Hey, I ALWAYS credit anything I post that I found on another’s blog.)

Who thought it possible to turn something as pedestrian as suburban houses into something otherworldly, and downright creepy? Hido blows away the familiar and replaces it with a more sinister version. There is a desolate, abandoned quality to all of his photos. To me, they evoke the feel of a Don DeLillo novel.

Be sure to check out the full size versions at the artist’s site, along with his other equally thought provoking series.
