I do admit that these were after I took an interest in Eggleston and to an extent Shore.
That's interesting, Keith..... my first thought was more Stephen Shore, than Eggleston!

View AttachmentNope, Kath , way too many influences to choose from  . Basically, every photographer, picture taker that I've ever come in contact with since October 1976 (over 47 years), I've gleaned some info from  . Although, admittedly, from Oct 76 to summer of 1985, it was unintentional / un/subconscious  . It was only since the late autumn/early winter of 1985/86 that I started taking snaps a bit more intentionally and was gleaning info and asking direct questions . So, all the PJ's, photogs, customers asking "me" questions have all been an influence to/on me . .. . . .So, at long last, I'll submit a snap I took of Gordon Lightfoot with Kodak 110 camera way back in September 1981 just before my return to London and work and, at least, 5 years before the word "photography" was even a word in my vocabulary  . **EDIT: an updated 'post process of the same snap ** Cheers, Jack View Attachment Ah yes, I agree - I also seem to soak up influences like some kind inexhaustible sponge. But some influences are more obvious than others, and I'd also invite you to create an image which is a deliberate homage to another photographer. As soon as I saw the fog outside I thought 'Brassai' and grabbed the camera. I'm currently enjoying leafing through some photography books to see who else I might have a stab at! Hi Kath, " ... some kind of inexhaustible sponge." That is spot-on . I will, indeed, try to sus out a snap that I've taken and try to thing of a photog who might have inspired me . I think, however, it may take a while BTW, you're fog shot is a cracker Cheers, Jack |

Walking along a deserted beach this afternoon and I came across an old patio chair, which I positioned near the waters edge. In my mind I had the video of Enjoy The silence by Depeche Mode playing, where Dave Gahan is dragging around a throne like king Canute. This therefore is inspired by that video which is by Anton Corbijn, who obviously does a lot of B&W stuff too.  Enjoy the Silence by Nigel G, on Flickr Edit. Just watched the video. He is carrying around a deckchair not a throne. |

I had to look up the name of the photographer who took the images I had in my mind, Robert Mapplethorpe.  untitled (1 of 1)-12 by Dan, on Flickr |
