Today’s Photographer comes via File Magazine
Upside Town is a selection of toy camera double exposures by photographer Anat Safran. Anat explains:
The series represents the urban landscapes of Tokyo, a city where nameless streets follow no urban plan. In the country of high technology, the place where many sophisticated digital cameras are made, I have decided to return to simplicity, to low tech. I have used a Holga, a simple plastic box that has very basic functions. This camera allows accidents to happen and leaves chance a place in the photographic results.
By using a double exposure while shooting, I have created new urban landscapes. The result, mysterious and chaotic, describes the Tokyo spirit, leaving the spectator confused and overwhelmed just like I felt while wandering the streets of Tokyo.

journal entry for 6/12
How does today’s photographer of the day Andreas Gefeller use perspective to get his point across?
What is his point? What is he trying to say by taking these far-removed aerial shots?
Perspective is everything.
As photographers we are always searching for ways to show our subject in a different light, at a different angle.
The photos in Andreas Gefeller’s Supervision series show aerial photographs of public places: office buildings, meadows, empty row houses, etc. What’s strikes me the most about these photos is the degree to which we can see the form and structure of the buildings. Stripped of people and furniture, the world looks a lot different when it just consists of form and shape.
More of his work can be found here.
