A look at photography through Equivoque

^StJoan:iconStJoan: reports, February 3, 2008
Photography!
Did you know that there are multiple Photography GDs?
There are nine specialized photography GDs and then two that oversee the rest of the media.
:bulletred: Photography: ^equivoque & ^rhapsouldize
► Abstract & Surreal & Fetish: ^opioid
► Animals, Plants & Nature: ^KevLewis
► Artistic Nudes: ^arachnid15 & ^Helewidis
► Commercial, Glamour & Pin-up: ^Ghouldaddy
► Conceptual & Macro: ^hellfirediva
► Horror/Macabre: ^Katerina423
► Photojournalism: ^estudio
► Street Photography: ^Obsidian-Fox
They focus a lot of their time not only moving miscats but searching for new and exciting work to feature as DD’s or in journal features.
When it comes to dd’s, photography is busy. ^equivoque gets something on the order of FIFTEEN DD notes a day. Needless to say picking daily deviations from that haystack is time consuming.
On what is looked for in a DD, ^equivoque had this to say:

The first thing I look for in a dd is that it be in some way original (i.e. not stereotypical). This spans all genres. The next thing i look for is probably technical merit (as related to the type of camera used). Then, I look for strong composition. Activity is another thing I look for in some shots. Quality of black and white (conversion, if digital) and color are also strengths I look for. I look for color that has been done well. An overall quality I look for is whether the photograph stands primarily on its strengths as a photo. If it relies more on post-processing for its presentation, I am less interested in it.


One of the most exciting projects going is a series of interviews with the cream of the crop in photography, including many professionals such as `Pixydream

Some Notable examples (and yeah so they’re personal favs, and not just mine! ;p) :

Go Ali!

Photography is so varied on DA, there are some shots which just blow you away even if they're of such simple things. I guess it's the same with any art form, but the sheer volume of photography seems to show that variation more.

9 GDs?! Sounds like they could do with lending one or two to literature at the moment :p

I love photography, and there's a ton of great stuff here; not surprised that they rely on so many categories and GDs.

Thanks for the article!

lol nah, i like the Atlas feeling I have right now, actually. There's something interesting to it, I admit.


But yes! NINE! but with there being just SO much and it all being SO different I can understand it. I have no idea how they have meetings though!

Photography was my passion before Literature. My gallery is proof...

But man, with so much development in photography and in software technology, there comes a group of so many talented individuals! Photography is truly a skill in which only the patient and creative can truly flourish, and that is what (in my opinion) makes it the most alike gallery with Literature.
