Christopher Sims

American Photographer Christopher Sims body of work of the American naval base and detention centre Guantanamo Bay. Guantanamo infamous for its detention and interrogation. Christopher has focused on as he puts it "The stage sets, rather than the players" as restrictions by the military meant no photos of the detainees could be made.

Jacob Holdt

Jacob Holdt's photographs show the grim reality of 1960's America, with narrative of racism and poverty. Armed with a $30 Canon Dial and little interest in photography as art Jacob produced an tragically beatiful depiction of the lower classes.

Peter Beste

Peter Bestewor mainly follows musics sub genre's, these photos are from a selection of these projects my favourite being London's Grime scene. I like how it is almost a sequal to Ewen Spencer's Open Mic, even showing some of the same MC's but a few years further on.

Ross McDonnall

Irish photographer Ross McDonnall, I love the series "Joyrider" which most of the photos are from, Ross also works in films and a trailer for "Colony" a movie looking at the American beekeeper and the often overlooked importance the honey bee holds over the food that we eat.

Sophomore - Cass Bird

I have seen a lot of videos by fashion photographers that have yet to be well shot, and to be honest rather shit. This video by Cass Bird is differnet though. It could be because its shot like a documentary as apposed to the fantasy themed video's that seem to be popular, anyway enjoy....
