Introduction to blog

Introduction to my Blog - About:

This is my weekly Visual Exploration blog. Here I will add a page every week on the work that we have created every week on texts that we have read and exhibition write ups as well as any photographic works that we make in those weeks.
The posts will consist of images, artist, books, blogs and any other photographic items that I find while studying that I wish to share on my blog.  

Umter Mag - http://www.umter.com/ 
This Magazine is new and special, so new it has only got four editions (As of yet). However that does not make it irrelevant, this magazine is some where, were young photographers or up and coming photographs can send their work weather at university or on an MA course to be published in one of their issues. Not only are there emerging photographers but there are some well know as well. 
Umter is well worth a look its fresh and exciting with many possibilities to go far. Opening a door for photographers that really want to start some where in getting their own work out there.   

Charlotte Hopkins - Six Feet Above  

Six Feet Above, a collection on work made by Charlotte Hopkins looking at the death of the Telephone Box. In today's modern climate the work is ever growing with the use of mobile devices such as the phone. This has lead to the ever beautiful red phone box slowly evolving over time only to now be a relic on street corners. 
This work is of interest as it feels as though Hopkins has photographed these boxes as if they were portraits, taking the images as night so they appear isolated and alone in the dark, but in the same way they light up as if they are beaming that some one has shown as interest in them.
