Winogrand: "Women are Beatiful"

A few photos from Gary Winogrand: "Women are Beatiful".
I've long wanted to make such a project myself. I would like to do it in Copenhagen.

City abstracts from today

Minimusic said: "The iPhone6 and similar are making it harder to justify carrying even a small camera like my beloved little Ricoh GR."
Myself:
Yes, I agree with your statement. It's been a while since I brought out my fab compact, a bit sad, because sometimes I miss the zoom. 
On the other hand, I would not bring it anyway in circumstances where I was not pretty certain I would be photographing, and that's when you have the phonecamera. This walk is a good example.

SF for creative minds

A talk by Neil Gaiman, writer.
(I recommend his book American Gods.)
Interesting point: the Chinese are opening the doors to science fiction because they found out that the the Westeners who were inventive and creative read SF and fantasy when they were young! (And probably later too.) And the Chinese recognise that though they are very good at copying things, they really need more inventive minds.

Time to read

“If you don’t have time to read, you don’t have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.”
