Not sure if I've posted this guy yet, if so let me know and I'll take this down. He's a South African photographer and takes some powerful and heavy photos. His style to me seems real journalistic. My favorite series of his are his portraits of Albino Africans in "LOOKING ASIDE" and his photos of guys with their pet Hyena's in "THE HYENA & OTHER MEN". I remember seeing a photo like this of a guy with his pet hyena on an album jacket, I wanna say it was an old Beastie Boys album? If anyone can verify I'd appreciate it.
Hyena's are nasty huge scary monsters and the one in the picture above doesn't even have a mussel on!? Check out more of his stuff HERE.
I think I've mentioned both Chase Jarvis and Superfad on here before, and they just collaborated on an awesome ad campaign for Kung Fu HD TV or something like that. Check out the video and photos. So much fun!
We need some new posts so we don't have to look at that nasty photo of Jaws-mouthed John McCain every time we come here. This poster was featured on iso50 and on Burnlab's flickr account. I love this style. 
PS> For some great new music for your 1970's Love-life scope this band I've been enjoying as of late !Pacific
There is big news in the Photo world this week about Jill Greenbergs photos of John McCain. She was even blogged here before by Matt, and I left a comment on that post about how great her work is. You can see the controversial shots at Jill's site, http://www.manipulator.com. Her total lack of professionalism in using photos of McCain for her own agenda is pretty sad. Her own bragging about it just makes it even worse.
"He had no idea he was being lit from below,” Greenberg says. And his handlers didn’t seem to notice it either. “I guess they’re not very sophisticated.”
"what is terrible is the impact that this will have on every single photographer that ever takes a portrait or photo from hereon out - you can expect PR people to be more diligent than ever, hold the media back with even tighter leashes, and as a result often kill our chance towards original photography."
This guy's work is pretty amazing. His style is so true to old pulpy illustrations, yet his content so wacky. I also enjoyed his decision to include a section of some of his childhood drawings. (I wish I could find some of mine laying around, although they would probably be mostly of old NBA players with machine guns). Go ahead and pa-rouse his site but be warned, he seems to love drawing simplified nude woman standing from behind. I thought they were rendered tastefully.
