Ben Pobjoy permalinkLots of young photographers are logging some serious miles for their craft. Case in point: Ben Pobjoy. For his Land of America project, Ben stared out the window during 90 hours of non-stop bus rides last June, covering over 7000 miles of America and Mexico in 13 days. That’s some serious cabin fever in exchange for some serious photos. |

joshuawildmangoodtimes permalinkHe’s back. It’s not just Joshua Wildman’s photography we like but the gems that pour out of his head every time he titles a post. The above photo has this as a title: “if you went here and you came out looking as good as the sign you would be stoked”. Gold. |

The Cobrasnake at NYC Fashion Week permalinkLest we forget, we just wanted to mention that Mark Hunter is really getting his whole program DIALED IN.

He’s snapped some of the world’s most amazing models, not to mention the consistently stunning fashion editorials/ad’s/you name it that he churns out. You’ve also probably seen The Kills video he directed. Well, he’s now relocated to LA from NYC and has been keeping a photo blog of his latest work and goings on.
