Bill Sullivan developed a situation so that various subjects could be defined by the constraints of exactly the same mechanical apparatus. The scenario consisted of someone passing through a subway turnstile. At the moment that the subjects passed through the turnstile, unknown to them, he took their picture stationed at a distance of eleven feet. Bill stood there turning pages of a magazine observing subjects out of the corner of my eye, waiting for only the moment when they pushed the turnstile bar to release the shutter.
His images are fascinating and are inspiring. They encourage us to try something different and when we do it shows what can be achieved.
This is the first of a series of features I will be doing. They consist of my absolute favorite photography that i've collected since i've been a member of DeviantArt. This feature's focus is on SQUARES, give them some love
From the Publishers of "What Digital Camera" and "Amateur Photographer", IPC Media today has announced a new online photography magazine, "Better Digital Photography" that people can read free and fully online, it is also interactive with embedding video tutorials from the magazine and mouse-over tips. Aimed at the entry and intermediate level photographer, it is heavily devoted to equipment and technique-focused photography content.
From the IPC Media website: Publishing director Alex Robb says: This is an exciting and innovative new venture for the photo portfolio. The editorial team have worked incredibly hard to create bespoke content, including technique videos and other interactive content. I am delighted that we have secured distribution to around two million photographers to ensure that as many people as possible benefit from the excellent tips and advice. Better Digital Photography is a further indication of how IPC continues to innovate in this competitive sector.
Editor Mat Gallagher adds: We wanted to create a product that helps the reader expand their knowledge, while being easy to use. It is thanks to the talents of art editor Steve Crabb that we have managed to produce such a visually stimulating and accessible magazine that surpasses anything else in the market place.
My thoughts, this is downright awesome and VERY well done, it is like looking at an actual magazine, but the fact that it has videos embedded within for tips, tutorials, and techniques, make this even better! You can also subscribe for free, via email for upcoming issues, make personal notes within the magazine, and download a copy to your hard drive. GO GET IT!
Oh yeah... sure... they're great to chop up, blend, distort, burn and fade. They're ideal for turning granny into a Night of the Living Dead extra or transforming a Fairy Castle into a Gothic Tower of unimaginable terror... or if you're squeamish, you can use them to simply antique your favourite woodland snapshot and create a darkroom masterpiece...
Textures as design resources seem to find their way into virtually every graphic artists armory at one time or another...
All well and good.
But... have you ever stopped and appreciated one as a piece of artwork in it's own right? I do... all the time... I sit there and think how much I want it on my wall... how I want to caress it's rusty flakes and nuzzle into it's musty cobweb strewn fissures... I...
Sorry
*clears throat*
The deviants below have been featured because of their dedication and eye with respect to their ability in capturing some of the most beautiful and deep abstract texture based pieces I've ever seen... they certainly take my obsession to another level.
NB. Before proceeding PLEASE remember these images are NOT stock! Please respect these guys as photographers...
they are gorgeous! i am in love with the colors and i think a good texture makes me go all giddy <3 i feel this way about them maybe especially because i appreciate photography from the mind of someone who doesnt photograph. but maybe it stems from watercolor and my hunt for good textured papers.
great pieces and great thing to remind people off. I spent half the week wandering around and the only thing that caught my attention was textures. Its nice to see people can appreciate them in thier own right

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
