100 posts!

A century! 100 posts. This is a bit of a land mark for the blog. However I'm not going to waste my one hundredth post talking about my one hundredth post! I am going to use it to show you this: http://inmotion.magnumphotos.com/essays/liberame.aspx from Alex Majoli and Magnum in Motion. I have for a long time been intrigued by films that are made from "Stills" It shouldn't really work, but some how it does. Why I'm not sure, perhaps it's because it gives the viewer time to use their own imagination, perhaps it's because as the journalist John Snow says "we remember things as still images" What ever the reason, for me at least there's something powerful about this type of work.
