Insperation:Mirko Martin + music!

I love Mirko Martin's photographs of downtown LA.

It amazes me that none of his photos were staged in anyway. Reminds me of the many afternoons I spent downtown walking around hunting down fabric and sewing machine parts (for school). As Mirko has documented, there's never a dull moment in the sunny, sad and slightly disturbing streets of downtown LA.
Be sure to also checkout his LA Crash series that he's been working on since 2006.

For the past couple of months I've been keeping up on Juan Rayos's skate videos. Recently I came across his photographs of skaters and love them just as much. I hope he continues to post more. 

Enjoy.

Inspiration: Erika Stevenson

These days it seems like everyone has 'one of those cameras' with the vintage feel and the slightly saturated colors. Unlike a lot of the photographers on Flickr/Tumblr/blogs/everywhere online, Erika Stevenson's photographs seemed more like art than a just another beautiful/bland photograph. I love how some of the landscapes/compositions in her photographs look a bit one dimensional.
