I look at this site about once a week when I feel that things are going too well and I need to take myself down again to a sense of realism about the world. His portraits are some of the best I have seen from anyone. I really don't know how he does them, but they are very cleverly executed, and the presentation on the website. although a bit chilling, is excellent. You need your sound switched on to view: the wind whistling is quite effective - like he's blowing across the mouth of an empty milk-bottle. Don't read his bio, it will totally depress you.

I think you may have put a link to this in the old forum, remember checking it out previously. Certainly high quality, impressive work with an individual presentation, right down to the choice of music! Sorry, I looked at the bio - now I feel soooo underachieving!

I think it was someone else, that's how I discovered the site. My favourite is the one in the personal section of the portfolio, of David Lynch stroking the chicken . And the one of Christ. That post-apocalyptic music gets to you. It sure beats taking shots of attractive women at the camera club on Monday nights.

I think No 22 on the personal section of the portfolio is the actor Mads Mikkelsen who played Le Chiffre (the baddie) in Casino Royale?

Anyone recognise others? Good game, this.

Interview with Dragan (in two parts) His views on photography are very interesting.

Part 1

Impressive stuff but I can't help think that all we are mostly admiring is the post production work, or be it photoshop skills.

I left feeling a little scared! It is very impressive stuff, although a lot of PS work must be involved. However he achieved the results the quality is fantastic. The first picture I clicked on was kate moss i think in her larger days wearing a boob tube.. It kind of drew me in. Cant sleep now, so will see what other posts i can find!
