Red carpet treatment

Frears feet

You wait ages for an unusual red carpet picture and two come along at the same time. Luke MacGregors well executed image from the Baftas in London of ‘The Queen’ director Stephen Frearss baseball boot clad feet gives us an abstract view of the man. It draws on a long line of press pictures using footwear to offer insight into the personality of the owner.


OK Go

Members of the band OK Go have made a great deal of effort with their outfits for the Grammys in Los Angeles but as Mario Anzuonis picture shows while they may have achieved individual anonymity, they still have to work on the invisibility thing.


Dalmations

Leaving the red carpet behind but back with footwear, Kieran Dohertys picture from a London park of a dog walker with two Dalmatians against a background of snow appears deceptively simple but hinges on the impact of the red Wellingtons.

David,

The blog looks good so far and no doubt will only get better as photographers from all walks of life drop in to leave their thoughts.

I’m sure there will be many photographers joining in. I’ll make sure my fellow photographers in Malaysia know about our existence.
