The captivating images of Brendan Meadows brings new light to the Spanish Civil War. The focus of the human face brings certain kind of warmth and memories to our tragic past.

The world is ending, and going out with a bang. Sydney’s sand storm last year created a surreal fog that is fit for Blade Runner.

Receiving 1st place in Conceptual and Constructed at the WPO this year, this definitely also has my vote. Set against the backdrop of the undiscovered remote island of Indonesia, this place has been virgin until June 2005.

The colours are just amazing. Indian/Australian photographer, Palani Mohan are extremely vivid and active.

The latest picture in Hedi Slimane’s beautiful photo diary, the place for never ending inspiration.

I recently checked out the work of photojournalist Jocelyn Bain Hogg for his collection of photos that document a society obsessed with celebrity culture. While browsing Idols+Believers, I revisited a piece that left a stronger impression on me. This particular set entitled, The Firm, gives us a closer look into the world of organized crime in the UK. Bain Hogg spent four years alongside the men and women of the British underworld offering them a chance to be represented as honestly as possible. The foundation of their relationships – that loyalty must remain their foremost concern – becomes very apparent through the photographs. The whole book is in B&W as are the lives of the subjects depicted. The following photos are some of my favorites. Enjoy.

See the rest of the set here.

This photographer does some amazing stuff. Continue reading for a few more pictures or visit his website.
