This month I’m joining Susannah Conway and many others around the world in the August Break project.
The idea is to post a photo a day, inspired either by the daily prompt or by something else.
I’ve also been sharing links to the work of photographers who inspire me.
Lisa attended the senior project of her son recently. He found math “torture” when he was younger. Just look at him now! I love that Lisa captured this in her image. Thanks to Lisa Gordon Photography for permission to use this image.
Today I want to share my enthusiasm for the images of Lisa Gordon, who first caught my attention with her delicate, dreamy and perfectly composed homages to flowers.
I was drawn to her restrained use of colour and texture, which gives the flower’s form centre stage.
But that’s not the only subject Lisa turns her camera toward. I love that she is a versatile and experimental photographer who stretches herself on a regular basis, making images that range from landscapes to street photography to environmental portraits. What shines through all of them is a keen perception, a palpable warmth, and a real love and respect for her subject.
I very much enjoy her black and white photography too.
Lisa is a generous soul, regularly sharing kind and encouraging comments with her photo buddies; she also shares her photography itself through the Creative Commons.
Why not delight yourself with a visit to her photoblog at Lisa Gordon Photography or to her flickr photostream?
