Tell a (Life’s) story with photos

I really like Photojojo. They sent me an enewsletter today and the contents were startling, and instantly share-able. Quite rightly Photojojo reminded me that the great thing about photography is that it can preserve moments that are never repeated.

Like Jack Radcliffe’s photo series that chronicles his daughter’s life in 30-odd photographs from childhood through adulthood – his candid black and white shots are simply great.

And in turn Diego Golberg’s Family Portrait Project serves as a reminder that people change faster than you realise.

I do think b2b marketers under use (great) photography. What a mistake we are making.

No accounting for taste

“There is no accounting for taste“, as the saying goes. So true.

To my point Wired‘s photo editors have chosen their 10 favourite images from 2007 – and in their words, ‘not because they’re the best – they just like them’.

Phew! For a minute I thought I would have to whinge, complain, and make an objection.

The images may be iconic; haunting or stark; with irony and juxtaposition. But the truth is they are not very good. Not that good at all imho.  You see I easily confuse ‘favourite‘ with ‘best‘.

Am I missing something, or is their no accounting for taste?

Edit: Alas these aren’t that much better, although these are worth a peak.
