“In Darkness Visible” Photographs by Nicholas Hughes

The photographs of Nicholas Hughes play with light and seeing at the extreme ends of lightness and darkness. In his earlier work, his large white on white on white photographs were like whispers of tone and nuance that rewarded the viewer when your eyes could finally detect the delicacy and wonder and richness of what was there with such subtlety.

Nazroo, a mahout (elephant driver), poses for a portrait while taking his elephant, Rajan, out for a swim in front of Radha Nagar Beach in Havelock, Andaman Islands. Rajan is one of the few elephants in Havelock that can swim, so when he is not dragging timber in the forest he is used as a tourist attraction. The relationship between the mahout and his elephant usually lasts for their entire lives, creating an extremely strong tie between the animal and the human being. (Photo and caption by Cesare Naldi)

“Awesome” Photo a Hit for Westminster Birder
Despite their aggressive reputation, loud screams and fierce, piercing looks, the red-tailed hawks at the park north of Burlington, just west of the Colorado-Kansas border, were being bullied when Gaines saw them.
“I’ve never seen red-tails harassed so much. They all seemed hoarse. I felt kind of sorry for them,” said Gaines of the sight of dozens of little birds dive-bombing the hawks.

Caribbean Swimming Pig, Photo by Vince Lauro
Vince Lauro won National Geographic Traveler’s Great Outdoors Photo Contest with this awesome photo of the Caribbean swimming pig.

As the first mate on a 118-foot motor yacht, Vince Lauro has the opportunity to continuously travel across the Caribbean. This photograph was taken near a small key famous for the “swimming pigs.” A colony of pigs lives on the key, and they often swim near visiting boats. To capture this clear image Lauro said, “I had to lure this pig into an undisturbed area with its favourite food: fresh watermelon.”

“Bubble Pop,” Photo by Richard Heeks

Here’s an amazing photo by Richard Heeks of a soap bubble bursting found on Neotorama;
The lighting of this shot is natural – sunlight through cloud. The Nikon D90 is great for giving clear images at high ISO (here ISO 800); making this shot possible.
N.B. This is a real photo of a soap bubble bursting. I’ve made slight edits to raise colour and light, but this is just to add some punch. This is not a Photoshop creation!

“Naked Faces,” Portraits by Oleg Duryagin
The “Naked Faces” project is devoted to relationship between human’s inner world with human’s behaviour in society. The society still restricts behaviour and thought of a human being.
This project is a kind of a protest that is to show that a person should remain who he is and that people should perceive him in the way he is. The persons presented in my works lack individuality: the eyebrowes and the eyelashes are removed, the skin is smoothed.
I have always been trying to make observers to be not indifferent to my pictures but it does not mean that emotions should only be positive – they can express both alarm, and fear, and tearing away.
Visially I am inspired by culture of fashion and surrealists. I often shock peple. I try to create the my personal aesthetics of the works, I try to combine reality with artificiality.

“Exposure” Exhibition by Tierney Gearon
American artist Tierney Gearon will be showing a series of large-scale photography at Phillips de Pury auction house employing a new process for the artist. Each photograph, contrived through the classic mechanism of double exposure in camera, has been composed by carefully combining two of the artist’s images whose compositions and themes act as counterpoints to each other: interior space and wilderness; youth and old age; solitude and companionship. The result is a powerful exploration of psychological terrain.
Photographic Artist Chris Jordan
Chris Jordan is a Seattle-based photographic artist known for his large-scale images of American mass consumption.
“Running The Numbers” looks at contemporary American culture through the austere lens of statistics. Each image portrays a specific quantity of something: fifteen million sheets of office paper (five minutes of paper use); 106,000 aluminum cans (thirty seconds of can consumption) and so on.
Jordan’s hope is that images representing these quantities might have a different effect than the raw numbers alone, such as those we find daily in news articles and books.
