Tosja's Top 5
1. Story Teller - Tim Walker
Alice gone wild in a stylish Wonderland, there seem to be
no boundaries to Tim Walker's imagination and his ability to bring
it to life in his photo's. High fashion meets high
fantasy.
2. Unconscious Places - Thomas Struth
It is quite amazing how Thomas Struth has managed to turn
bustling cityviews into almost surreal and scenery-like places
which seem bereft of any human habitation. A rather fascinating
collection of photos and certainly an interesting take on urban
life and the way it responds to humanity or perhaps not.
3. Nostalgia -
Sergei Prokudin-Gorskii
A wonderful telescope into the past. 19th century Russia
in full colour and rich detail.
4. The Bitter Years - The Farm Security
Administration Photographs through the eyes of Edward Steichen
One can't help but relate this powerful photo collection
to the world's present economic problems and the results of
that. These haunting and poetic photos still speak for themselves
and provide a lot of insight into what the results of a depression
can be.
5. Yamuna Walk - Atul Bhalla
A detailed and reflective sight on the Yamuna River and
the way this river relates to present-day India.
