Benjamin Lowy - War Photographer and Storyline shooter

[clive1]

I discovered Benjamin Lowy just the other day when I came across a b/w Holga multi exposure strip in Time (or

Newsweek?) of U.S. forces in Iraq that was the artwork for an editorial on the war. I was impressed that a war PJ

was using a Holga (or similar trashcam) and that the mag had used one of what I call "Picture Strips" but he calls <a

href="http://benlowy.com/main.php">"Storylines"</a>. Got to "Storylines " in the sidebar.<P>

Below is one of mine.<P>

Wow they look really good, the roughness of the technique really adds to it, just when you thought you were bored with holga shots...

Thnaks for that

Thanks Clive for the information. Some great stuff! It just goes to show that you don't need the most expensive

or latest equipment to produce outstanding photographs.
