Despite being surrounded by innumerable aspiring photographers at school, I have yet to develop a discerning taste for photography. I also have yet to subscribe to the belief that there can actually be such a thing as a discerning taste for photography. It's easy to tell when things are shoddily done or uninspired, but in many cases it's difficult to put my finger on exactly what draws me to one photographer or one style specifically. That being said, I find images such as this to be captivating.
May Day Riots in London
All of these images were shot with a
Holga, which automatically triggers not only my soft spot for low-fi imaging, but also a more personal association with a handful of images captured of some of my
finer moments by two good friends of mine (Photo Credit: Sarah Crump, October 2006). Visually, I'm not so sure what appeals to me, I just think shots like this capture a feeling that is very powerful.
