I wish it was this easy, you got to look for it. I keep a tumblr account just to search for something different (reposts, not tumblr photographers).

yamamoto masao
miguel rio branco
clyde butcher
nanã sousa dias
thomas dworzak (kavkaz)
clyde and nanã are landscape photographers, thomas and miguel are street photographers (miguel is the most brilliant color photographer all times), yamamoto masao does a thing of his own
If you live in a bigger city, there's bound to be some art galleries which should have exhibitions on contemporary photographers, local and international

>beat takeshi
fuck yeah. that guys awesome, a well rounded artist. i remember his appearance on the araki docu, he said something like araki enjoyed making what he does a lot, all the time. unlike him: for him working was pain, enjoyable only sometimes and he thought his stuff was really not so good lol ..didnt seem phased by that, i liked his sincerity
I'm a big fun of Beat Takeshi's film.
My favorite

"spectcular" is really the last word which would come to my mind in regard to these anxious snapshits.
>>2717570

>>2717573

So, no, it can't be 'stalker'. Unless you are ignorant enough to see a "stalker aesthetic" in everything that is not west. Which would qualify you as a top tier normie.
Fucking normie.

Photographers are doing shit.
photography is inconsequential. It is dead.
waste ur time in something else that might actually be important.

Was not expecting for someone to respond that quickly.

why do all the "pro" photogs only have their photos on their own sites, at 400x400, optionally inside some shitty flash player?
I just want to look at photos, and not have to wait for them to load or squint at thumbnail-sized "pictures".
>>2719196
They don't care about you looking at their photos. They're working for a living, not making art to entertain people who have nothing to offer them.
>>2719197
Why make art at all then, if you're not going to share it with the world and enlighten it?
>>2719242
>Why make art at all then, if you're not going to share it with the world and enlighten it?
u serius?
the world dont give a fuck.
only some 1% fuckers, looking to up their assets.

>If you're good at something, never do it for free
>>2719261
Fucking capitalists. Art is not about money, it transcends money, time, and distance. If it's so good, it needs to be shown to the world.

>Art is not about money, it transcends money, time, and distance.
thats Love, you humungous faggot.
>>2719284
That sounds great, but can you eat it?
>>2719285
love transcends none of those things T_T
>>2719284
dial back the ego son
i make my art for me
>>2719293
it does. but it is something made by two. so your "love" for your waifu doesnt apply for this.
>>2719295
Yeah, you can keep your ``art'' to yourself, I wasn't talking about you.
>>2719296
haha sure bro, i'll make sure to pin your post to the ceiling of your hospice so you can see it as you die
>>2717334
holy shit just watched this video.
it literally fucked my shit up. his ideas are so seemingly "simple" its ridiculous, he has very clever way for pulling them off.
