rocco Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I am always looking for photographers work that has something different and unique then the normal pet photography you see everyday. I stumbled across Giacomo Brunelli and his work is so incredible, haunting and mysterious. Just WOW!! I would hang all his work on my walls. Take a look. If anyone else has stumpled across great photographers post the link because Im sure we all love the inspiration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huga Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 (edited) Wow - it's so dark and gritty, isn't it? Almost like a horror movie vibe. Edited August 17, 2010 by huga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocco Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 Very dark and gritty. What a eye he has though dont you reckon? Most of us would of trashed half of those shots but he saw something different and made it art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huga Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Oh yeah, he has an eye for what works. Really interesting crops and use of space. I think it's great, but I'm not sure I could live with it, it makes me feel.... uneasy. Which is a good thing - it's a pretty strong reaction, much more interesting than 'here is a dog sitting on the grass' type shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like, nice job. very dark and moody, but not happy seeing how skinny those horses were, that just made me sad Sad yes, but unfortunately this goes on in our world and how thought provoking he has made this.

huga Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Here is another great series of photos. The little dog kennel is so cool not to mention the old lady and her lab. :D more cool stuff There's something about that series that reminds me a bit of your work. A bit of a retro vibe to a few of them, which I love, of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossumCorner Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Thanks Rocco, good to look at something different like this. But my first reaction is dislike, or mild aversion. Technically brilliant, very consistent treatment from composition onwards. But too intentionally emotionally manipulative for me. Too much death or walking-death or misery, and too clinically presented in a book for mass effect. Maybe I'm tired (and sick of being ankle-deep in mud: thinks, must take some mud-misery shots to look back on if we get drought conditions again next year). Any Henson fans here? There is a Henson exhibition on at a gallery just down the road, don't know whether to go along or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always wanted a Holga and this guy makes me want one even more LOL. Redbubble were talking about people who wanted to do a digital Holga, that would be a dream camera - http://www.redbubble.com/people/redbubble/...olga-d-filmital Something sort of like this so no one would take you seriously anyway if you were out in the street taking photos http://cgi.ebay.com.au/HOLGA-135-BC-135BC-...AU_FILM_CAMERAS Or better still http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...em=390146696977 Edited August 19, 2010 by helen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocco Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) And of course the famous http://www.wegmanworld.com/splash.html Wegman and Man Ray are my heros. Love his work. Another photographer I have come across with a job I am working on is Rachael Hale. NZ Photographer (all the best photographers come from here... ). I think she is the Anne Geddes of the animal world. Its worth a look not my sort of thing though, but I so admire her business set up.
