I’ve been thinking about my atheism a lot recently, especially w/r/t the NPR coverage of the Methodist minister who “came out” as an atheist. More formalized musings, I hope, to come soon.

I’ve tried to find the source of this image (i.e. it’s proper credit) via various methods (Tineye, Google, etc.) because I think it’s one of the best things ever - two activities I love, diving and reading, finally combined!
If anyone knows, please tell me the credit.

“The German photographer Ute Mahler became one of the G.D.R.’s fashion visionaries, her work a testament to the subversive role fashion can assume as a mode of expression in an authoritarian state. Mahler was focused not on extreme fantasy but on a heightened sense of reality. She presented women as strong individuals, concerned more with style than with the latest fashions.”

By the way, if you’re posting photos without credits because you don’t know who made a certain image, it’s really easy to go to Tin Eye and find out.

I discovered photography duo Charlotte Ballesterous + Hubert Marot (something I never quite understand, the photography partnership) on the website for magazine It’s Nice That.
I am completely in love with their work + it’s ancient/modern aesthetic. Empty, enigmatic landscapes, stone monoliths, moody black and whites. Perfect.
An image by Herbert Ponting, part of the recent Atlas Gallery exhibition.
From It’s Nice That:
“A very brief and breathtakingly beautiful exhibition of Herbert Ponting’s photography is soon to finish at Atlas Gallery, London. This show, commemorating the death of Robert Falcon Scott who he joined as photographer and cinematographer on the fatal Terra Nova Expedition in the early 1900s, is a remarkable account of artistic craftsmanship in the most testing of conditions. As we can now appreciate the fineness of the images as objects of art, so do we understand more fully the gravitas the moment they arrived from. The exhibition is in association with the Scott Polar Research Institute.”
