There are a lot of films in which photograph (or photographs) play a role of the main character or organize the whole action. Of course, many of you will think at first about “Blow up” by Michelangelo Antonioni. However, there is lot more of them.

You can also watch films, which tell stories about work of photo correspondents, both documentary and feature, for example “Harrison’s Flowers” about war in former Yugoslavia, and “The Death of Kevin Carter”. The second one was directed by Dan Kraus and is a document about Bang-Bang Club. In this film stars for example James Nachtwey, a photographer himself.

Moreover, I will recommend you a document about four famous photographs – “Looking for an Icon”.

19 brave women, strong and open to the fate of breast cancer. The book "Amazones" shows the beauty of survival. It startet with a few personal pictures. After Uta Melles breast cancer diagnosis she had to say goodbye to her breasts. Two years later an army of "Amazones" stands in front of the camera to celebrate their survival. 19 women show what it means to fight the cancer-and they break all stereotypes. Don´t hide, you are not alone, life goes on even if it is a different one, they say.The photographers Jackie Hardt and Esther Haase shooted women with the diagnosis of breast cancer for two days. Some of them finished their surgeries and some of them are in the middle of their chemotherapy. The results of this pictures are a great book of wonderful women.

One of my favourite is Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, well known as Lewis Carroll, the writer of Alice in Wonderland.

Dodgson’s main topic was young little girls. He also made many studies of men, women, male children and landscapes. His subjects also include skeletons, dolls, dogs, statues and paintings, and trees. His studies of nude children were long presumed lost, but six have since surfaced, five of which have been published and are available online.

I like his works because he showed the girls as beeing in Wonderlans, and his portraits about men and women are also special.

My favorite two Japanese photographers are,

Kayo Ume ( http://japan.digitaldj-network.com/archives/51856149.html) She doesn't have official site so I attach twitter's page that upload lots of her photos.

and

Mika Ninagawa (http://www.ninamika.com/en/photographs/index.html : English site).

Kayo's photos are soooo amusing and humorous. She takes photos of everyday life that we take for glanted and neglect. Once you see her wokrs, you'll sware to bring your camera with you everyday not to miss funny timing!

Mika's photos are all vivid colour and wonderful! She is well know in Japan and abroad.

Have you heard about how „renew” nowadays Leonardo da Vinci’s Last supper?

I was wandering, when I read about, that ’The Last Supper’ was not only da Vinci’s theme. In the 14th-20th centuries many wellknown artist painted in this subject. Albrecht Durer, Tintoretto Blake, Rembrant.

Nowadays ont he internet you can find a lot of ’renew’ of da Vinci’s version. I found a webpage, where they collected many of them. These pictures are working perfectly, from the same gestures you associate to the original one. The figures sit or stand in the same position. So finally you always think about The Last Supper.

http://ifitshipitshere.blogspot.com/2008/05/last-supper-and-one-after-that-and.html

By the way, do you think this renewing is a good thing? Or does it ashamed to the original painting? Is it a kind of art? Or just a joke?

Arno Rafael Minkkinen (b. 1945) is considered one of the most renowned and influential Finnish photographers worldwide. His works can be found in the Museum of Modern Art in New York and he has won several awards in Italy, France, the United States and Finland. Minkkinen has been living and working in the U.S. Since 1951.

Arno Rafael Minkkinen is best known of his black-and-white photos in which he combines landscapes and nude human body. The nude human figure – often Minkkinen himself – becomes an integral part of the landscape. Allthough Minkkinen has lived in States most of his life, plays Finnish landscape and nature an important part in his works. His photographs have a captivating and almost supernatural atmosphere. Minkkinen is famous for categorially sticking to his rule not to use any kind of manipulation or external help in the photographing process.

What really attracts me in Minkkinen's photographs is the simplicity and calmness. The elements in his photos – the bare human body and the stillness of the landscape – are simple but the combined result is very dramatic. A glimpse of that power of expression is something I trying to capture in photography myself.
