Each post I have read is very well written and to the point. I would also like to state, not only are the posts well written, but the design of your site is excellent. It was easy to navigate from article to article and find what I was looking for with ease. Keep up the excellent work you are doing, and I will be back many times in the future.
Not quite a few folks consider the similar way while you. That includes me.. sorry …)
All very true, but I don’t take that view myself. I will go along with the more traditional view. But I certainly support your right to have your own point of view. Cool anyway.
Very Interesting. I haven’t had a similar feeling here in Memphis, but I guess that isn’t very unusual.
Bad artists copy. Good artists steal. Pablo Picasso
This sort of “plagiarism” has gone on for years do we not live in post post modern society? i could name hundreds of photographers who Plagiarize.
Just to name a few August Sander = Alec soth. Walker Evans= bruce Davidson.Mathew Brady = Richard Misrach = Simon Norfolk Come get real you all know it it all been done before. The only thing that makes it different is the sentiment behind the work.
The We English book contains 56 color plates, 4 plates shown above demonstrate a similarity to Bialobrzeski. This hardly warrants the suggestion of plagiarism.
mmmm… a bit too close for comfort? I have heard the quote (not sure who first said it?) ‘there is no such thing as an oroginal thought’ and this may possibly be a case of this?? Its hard when researching and admiring not to be influenced by others work but…
Some people on Flickr noticed those similarities as son as the book came out:
